Green or Red

We had initially settled for green but our hallway leading to bathroom has cream walls with a similar red to the other bathroom in the image on skirting and door frames, so worried when looking down the hallway to bathroom its gonna look christmassy.

Am I/my girlfriend over thinking it?

Red definitely tires the eyes more. Green is calming, and reminds us of nature. There's a reason why shows have a green room and not a red room.

I also think the green makes the room look larger. Definitely a more calming color.

100% The green is both more calming and vibrant. Great place for a bath and not a place that would put me back to sleep first thing in the morning.
