Bathroom tile options

This is what I’m having on one wall, the sea green tiles.
But I’m a bit stuck what to have on the other walls and on the floor.
It’s too much to have on 2 walls
Do I just find a white tile, metro? I just can’t visualise anything matching.
They have a pale grey tile the same, but I think that will be too much

How big is the room? And do you need all the walls to be tiled? If you don't, you could use all the same tile, but only half tile some of the walls (or not at all) and then just paint. That would be my preference over having different wall tiles.

On the floor, pale grey would look good. I see they have used marble (or marble effect) in the promo picture, which is nice. Just not white tile - I have this in my ensuite (which we inherited) and it is awful - never, ever looks clean, even when it is spotless.

The room is 3.1 x 1.75

The 3.1m wall will have the tiles, the loo, sink and shower. But the adjacent wall definitely needs tiles cos it’s in the shower iyswim.
It’s completely tiled now.
I like the idea of pale grey.
I don’t like marble
I was thinking plain white-maybe not!

OK - does the shower cover the whole of the 1.75m wall? If not, I think you could definitely do two of the walls in the tiles and then paint the rest.

But please, please avoid a white tiled floor - I was trying to be a bit delicate when I said it never looks clean. What I really mean is that is shows up all the hairs. And what with brushing hair, shaving beards and prancing about naked/towel drying, you get a lot of them. I cannot wait to get rid of mine (roll on January!)

We're having a wood effect ceramic tile on the floor (v convincing). That could work, but might look a bit much with a patterned wall tile. I do think you want something quite neutral and nondescript if you're having a statement wall.

It will be a walk in shower with just glass, prob 1.2 or 1.4
