Thank you. Yes I do like the sound of a charcoal colour but am hoping it won't dominate the look of the house and make it look to dark. Cheers

Hi! We've just been through this issue and like you I initially chose a lighter colour, as I wanted a stone/sandstone look and chose Dulux Tully Grey. We tried it out and it was TERRIBLE! So our painter suggested a darker colour, Basalt which I think is a Berger Jet Dry colour.....Also YUK! It looked blue on our place. Back to the drawing board. We ended up with and are EXTREMELY happy with Dulux Grey Cabin mixed into a Berger Jet Dry non slip paint. I don't have photos yet but it was difficult to get a match with a lot of timber balustrading being painted in Hog Bristle 1/2 and accents of Monument (its almost black) all this against those colonial sandstock type bricks... I don't envy you but dont give up! My suggestion is to get as many sample pots of paint as you can....paint large sheets of paper and fling them around in different spots, during different times of the day, in sunny spots and in full shade. Bearing in mind, concrete paint will be flat and not semi gloss like the sample pots so a little imagination is key. Good luck!

The darker step colour would be better. But I need more context. What is on floor of patio?

If you dont want a cream or white colour but want to keep it neutral you could pick out the taupe colour that is also in your tile and paint this colour on the wall. Alternatively if you want to add a bit more colour to the bathroom then a blue/green colour such as light teal or a softer tone such as Duck Egg or Eau De Nil would really compliment the beige tiles.
