help with a feature wall

2 years ago

We just purchased this home, and are going to be using it as a vacation house. The current tile floor I did not pick, and do not love. It’s pretty busy when you see it in person, although in certain lighting, it does not bother me as bad. However, we will not be spending the money to replace this at this time.

I want to do a more bold feature wall here, as this will be an Airbnb property, and a statement on this wall would be nice.

I am thinking about tiling this wall with something either subdued and relaxing, or a pop of color.

Give me all the opinions. This is a Florida property.

something else
Seafoam, green, or blue tiles
neutral textured tile

    Art would be better than a ”feature wall”
