Wall colour to complement these floor tiles

Inheriting these beige/brown floor tiles in a bathroom. Really don't like them, but I'm going to be stuck for the foreseeable.

Currently 2 walls are white and 2 are a grey, which you can see in the picture looks very blue-ish. Both clash as the tiles are much warmer. White toilet and claw foot bath.

The wall tiles are awful, so I could definitely get anyway with changing them and the wall colour at the same time.

"Egyptian cotton" from Dulux would work really well with those tiles.
My mum has tiles very similar to those in her bathroom and she went with Egyptian cotton after seeing it in our hallway. It looks great!

Ooh that looks like an option, is it a warm grey?

How about a light turquoise? Or chalky blue?

It's a hard one to describe as it looks different in different lights. In some lights it looks like a pale, warm grey and in others it looks like a pale oatmeal colour. It is warm though so feels very homely!

I have used Egyptian Cotton in two different houses. It works really well. It’s a cream with grey underneath but is actually quite warm - not Mrs Hinch grey iykwim

Thanks @tilder, I love the idea of not having a neutral but I've just moved on from a green bathroom and fancy a change, I think blue might be quite cold.

I asked a colour consultant and they've recommended this dusty pink. I might get a tester.

That looks like a nice colour on it's own, but I can't shake the idea of pink, cream and brown looking like Neapolitan ice cream Grin

I agree with Egyptian Cotton. It’s been my go to in every house I’ve lived in. I think it would look lovely
