our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

We started purchasing things for this project, like the tub in October of last year, we tore out the old bathroom in December which meant we moved out of our bedroom and into a guest bedroom on a main floor. We totally changed the configuration of the bathroom and walk in closet so my clothes have been split between two closets on the main floor and DHs in another. This has been the project that has taken us the longest by far.

There are still several big items not finished but we should be wrapping it up by next week.
Custom shower doors are ordered & should be installed Tuesday
The medicine cabinets are ordered & need to be installed so we have temporary mirrors there
All recessed lights need trim
3 wall scones at vanities need to be installed
Outlets need to be installed
one of our sink faucets was damaged so we're waiting for a new one
the vanities are getting crystal pulls on the doors
Thermostat for radiant floor heat needs to be installed
Some moulding is still missing
All Moulding/wainscoting needs to be painted, some is primed or first coated it will all be super white Gloss
towel bars need to be installed

My pictures kind of stink so to help with my paint dilema
The Shower area glazed beveled subway tiles are white
All marble including shower details, vanity tops & tub deck are Honed White Carrera
the flooring is 12 X 24 glazed porcelain Oyster-although this pic doesnt look right on my monitor, it seems much warmer in person


The purple sheetrock makes every paint sample I hold up look purple, its driving me nuts!
I am not a lover of grey walls but I may go with a very soft grey but I'd love to hear your opinions









So what color would you paint the walls in this bathroom?

either a bluish gray or a bluish green color.

Take a look at BM Gray Wisp. I have it in my MBR and its like a light blue/green/gray.

LOVE the bath thus far. Take a look at BM Edgecomb Gray. It is a very soft gray that IMO would be a perfect color match.

eta: i might have a half of a sample quart. want me to check?

Thanks Skew! I will check that on my fan deck when I get home today!
I keep thinking I want geographic wallpaper but I think it will be too much with all of the millwork and tile lines

First off, just want to say it looks awesome!

I know it was trendy for a while, but I really love the beachy blue color along with white. Nantucket Blue I think it's called? JldDolphin had it in her living room. I think she had all the pics in her albums, which is why I can't find them anymore.

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

I like the purple.

I also think a blueish grey would be nice too.

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

I kind of like the purple too, to be honest. How about a purply grey color?

Otherwise, I would go beachy blue.

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

I'd like a blue too, I'm thinking of a sky blue color.... Even a navy would look amazing!

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

I would go with a light green that has gray undertones.

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

It's gorgeous! I would go with a very light blue/green/grey....looks awesome w/the carrera marble you have. I think the name is silver springs by BM

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

Silver sage by RH or Gray Wisp by BM

Re: our master bathroom is about 90% done and i cannot decide on a wall color-pics

My BM fan deck doesn't have grey wisp for some reason.
I like Edgewood grey though.
As for the purple/grey my daughters room is purple so I'm not really feeling that color in this bathroom.
I love silver sage, our guest bathroom/bedroom has restoration hardware paint colors.
I feel like I'm being boring by going with something grey or light blue but we already have a lot going on in there.
I'm a freak, this bathroom has been in the works for almost a year. You'd think I would have figured this out already.
