If you haven't, post this on the Home-Dec. forum here. Lotsa good color/decorating people there. This forum tends to be just about technical matters somewhat.... Faron

I consider myself something of a color expert. With your tile color, I would stay away from pinks. The best color for you will depend on if you like the tile color and want to contrast it to make it appear more green, or if you want to make it stand out less. For a little bit of complementary contrast, try a sample of Ben Moore's Dreamy Cloud which is a light purple grey with a light reflection value of 77.92 which is nice and light. In the pic, it looks like you mainly use artificial lighting which makes it a warm green rather than a cool green that it would be in natural light, so for less contrast, I would go with a light warm green like Ben Moore's Palest Pistachio. It's a beautiful green but very light which will help the room appear larger and brighter and should make your floor appear less green. The LRV is 85.64, which will really help if you need the room to be brighter.

My opinion will be biased because I have very similar tile in my master we redid 12 years ago. 4" squares on the diagonal for the shower floor and 12" squares on main floor and up the shower walls. Coincidentally we are in process of redoing my kids' bath the past few weeks (it was also redone 12 years ago) because a hard-to-find leak in the tub prompted us to consider replacing it....which then brought about the issue of replacing the tiled tub-surround that would be damaged...and we would also have to try to retile some spots on the floor because a new tub would be a smaller footprint leaving some bare spots once old tub was pulled out. My point is that we also had to figure out the whole, "do we do an updated 'patch job' to save a lot of money, or do we just gut it and accept the cost as the price of being at peace with it/enjoying a new look and improved function. Right or wrong...which is always a very subjective thing....we gutted it and I'm thrilled. I was not interested in painting my cabinets just to have them have peel-issues due to steam, and we also got rid of the tub altogether and opted for a stand-up/walk-in shower for my older kids. Resale was considered on this issue...but by the time we move, someone can either love it as we've made it, or we will price the house with an "allowance" in mind. The old space had hot-chocolate colored walls and 'slate' porcelain floor and tub surround...an overall warm and cozy feel but also tired and dated. The new space is a porcelain 'marble' hex with white subway walk-in shower that is awaiting glass doors...an overall calming feeling that is also bright and fresh. I now actually wish SO BADLY that I was able to redo/retile MY whole bathroom (tile similar to yours). And there's nothing wrong with my bathroom, and a planned paint job on the walls will help me like it even more...... In my kids' bathroom, however, even unfinished with the floor and shower tile installed just waiting for the rest to come together (waiting on backordered tile base moulding) ......... I walk in and just smile and breathe deeply because of the way the space now makes me feel :) So my very biased vote is to gut it ;) ;)

Thank you both, The flower will be open but I feel those colors are very intense... I am more into neutrals @Beth H. yes the trim is ugh... and that white does not help. The main blcoker for any major work is doing anything messy while we are stuck working from home with baby & toddler. So painting is a quick fix. When I chatted about something like that with the local well-regarded handyman he was pretty open that noone can guarantee they won't damage bath surround tile if removing half-wall. Maybe if we just remove tile around the vanity / next to the door it will work. Def would require fixing the wall. I'll need to get some quotes as def not DYI (painting / installing vanity we can do ourselves)
