I like the darker pieces strewn through with the cabinet, flooring & wall color.

I was going to say, I think the one on the right ties in better with your paint color, but actually they both do and the left one ties back into the vanity. So my final answer is left one.

I would not do either of those. That look to me is very dated.

your choices speak more modern than traditional, the smaller pattern (2nd) is a better option.

The glass tile on the right seems to suit your wall color better. However, neither choice is traditional. Personal taste, but I dislike accent tiles and think that they are rapidly becoming passé. I will never understand accenting shower niches, the purpose of which is to shelter soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Not understanding why those items should be focal points. Kind of like highlighting a tube of toothpaste. Just my take. Good luck with your project.

Thanks for all the comments. I know the room plan may seem dated but we just don't like modern, mid-century, or a gray or white bathroom. It's a large bathroom, about 11 x 12, and it will be a sea of beige without an accent tile to provide color. The wall color will help but there won't be much wall showing. I was hoping to pull in the wall color with the accent tile. One concern with the tile on the left is that it's a pretty dark room that doesn't get much natural light. We're using the same paint in the water closet and in the adjoining bedroom. More photos would be useless because it's all under construction.

Check out options on tilebar.com Loads of options that could give you a better look and still be in tune with your style leanings.

I really like that 2nd one Flo. Much brighter than the other 2.

If wall has bit of green, liking the lighter right - seems a bit of green [with the rusty auburn, nice].

Are faucets dark [bronze]? maybe then no dark tiles added in. Just think the lighter would allow more 'show' from the large tiles.

Thank you, Flo. Those are gorgeous, and I'll be on the Tilebar website all night! I like your diamond patterned one but unfortunately any accent with white doesn't look all that good with the other colors. (Yes, the sinks and toilet will be white). But the wall color is blue-green. Everdebz, the faucets and shower controls are all oil rubbed bronze. I'd like a monotone light aqua glass tile and have some samples but my husband didn't like any of them. These two made the cut with him.

Don't get distracted by the white because the "overall impression" will be the colored tiles. We tend to get "hyper-focused" on things and it can make the decision-making process more complicated. Grout color should also blend with the tile, not stand out. Only choose grout that is different than tile if you want every tile to "stand out" as an accent. You could do a cream with a contrasting grout? I just am not a fan of contrasting grout. Rather everything blend nicely.

IMO wall colr can’t be chosen until that accent tile is decided and I like an accent as a vertical stripe not all around and I actually don’t like either one but if I had to choose I would go with the 1 st one I guess.

From here, the right tiles seem more like the paint.
