Would a light oak vanity unit work with light grey wall tiles and grey/white patterned flooring?

I am beyond hopeless at anything interior related.

About to have our very tired bathroom done and I’m wondering if this works:

light grey wall tiles
light grey/white patterned floor tiles (house is Edwardian so this would be in character with house)
white loo/bath
light oak colour vanity unit (wall hung) with white basin??

Or do I play it safe and just do white vanity unit?!

I really love a light oak vanity I’ve found and think it might add a point of slight interest rather than just plain white. But then I do have the patterned floor tiles so is it overkill? Or might it bring it all together?!

I know it might all sound very basic but I really am that hopeless! Hence why our bathroom which has needed doing up for 10 years is only being done now we can’t leave it any longer…!!

take a photo of the area and upload it to chatgbt or similar and tell it your requirements. I did this with kitchen tiles, it's very good!

I think it's fine because grey and white are both neutral and the oak is more visually read as wood (and therefore natural and neutral) than it is as colour. You could maybe have a pic on the wall with an oak frame or something else just as a second reference to the oak which might enrich the overall look but I doubt it's necessary. It sounds lovely!

Yes but pop links into chat gpt with a photo of your bathroom and it’ll help visualise.

Oh I didn’t even think of Chat GPT! Genius idea thank you!

Thanks everyone, I feel a bit less uncertain about it now…
