Remodeling Design Dilemma

Floor failed—contractor replacing

9 months ago

I’m cross posting from another board as I realize now that board doesn’t get much traction… bathroom tile floor failed due to faulty thin set. Contractor has agreed to replace. Trying to pick a new floor tile that incorporates the existing wall tile, counter, and cabinets. Any help is appreciated.

I picked up a couple samples. Originally thinking of a larger hex, but 2R seems to pull in enough depth of the wall tile without competing with the countertop. I just don’t want it to look like I try to match the wall and miss the mark.

You already have movement in your wall tile and your countertop. What about a solid color tile in one of the tones from either existing surface?
