I like the top right picture where the grey floor tile appears to run up the wall. But the floor tile looks lighter than the wall, is it a different tile? I would pick a lighter shade from the Kalala Shan as the 2nd tile. Does the tile shop have a contrasting colour from the same family of tiles? Not sure I would go 2 different textures, unless one was really flat and non descript to contrast with textured one that would be the stand out feature. Great colour choices though. And would look lovely coming off the spotted gum floors too!

I am just wondering whether it is a good thing or not to go with solid colours like the dark blue (prussian blue), grey floors and white on other walls all in tiles. I see that a lot of designers seem to do a pattern on one wall, but I haven't found one suitable and whatever I do, I just don't want it to look out of date in 5 years time. I am not sure how about much of the prussian blue tile is appropriate in order for it to be noticeable but not too overpowering.

I like your choices. Prefer the dark tile for the floor with matching grout, easier for cleaning. I do like the combination of the subway tiles in a herringbone layout as pictured. Use the same grout as the floor and also use this pattern in the shower niche. Then just tile the rest in 300x600 white gloss. Simple and timeless and all the colour can come from your accessories.

Hi Creativelychallenged, thanks for the feedback and I love the floor tile we have chosen too! It’s called Riverview Stone and has a really nice feel underfoot. We are doing the Reno very much for us, we bought our house about 4 years ago and have no plans to leave it. After years of moving across the country as a defence family (12 houses, lots of very neutral bathrooms) I am on a mission to use a bit of colour, especially as it’s a kids bathroom and deserves to be nice and bright :). Our kitchen and ensuite are on my wish list, hoping to give them an update in the next few years, so this is our first venture into renovating territory....
