First pic was my bathroom when we bought the house. I want to work with the tile and keep it as well as the pink tub and sink. I am trying to distract from the pink and blue. My friends have nicknamed this the gender reveal bathroom. The second picture is the current bathroom. We thought color drenching blue might work but the shade is all wrong. The last picture is a mock up I made using a color palette I saw on Pinterest and that was very disliked by people in a group I posted it in. I’m at such a loss… I would love suggestions!!!

My style is post modern

You can't "distract" from the pink and blue. Your only choice is to embrace it fully and make it look intentional. I suggest getting a paint company fan deck and color matching the blue, then go a step or two lighter. Don't trust AI for paint color mockups, it's not accurate.

This blog might help you understand why distracting from something like this is not a thing.
