What colours?

Just finishing off my final decorating of my house (4th time in 4 years lol) and am having trouble with colours for the bathroom and kitchen (both fitted within the past couple of years) due mainly to tiles lol

The bathroom tiles are these (described as light chocolate hmmmm)121tp.jpg
Uploaded with ImageShack.us and go round the bath/shower up to ceiling height and across over the sink,a couple of rows either side and across and under the built in room wide shelf (under window cill).The floor is a lovely wooden strip type with varying shades in it.Really struggling with colours to go with the tiles!!!

Kitchen is a very good size,has beech units,dark grey/black granite style worktop,black granite effect tiles and black slate floor with oak table and beige suede chairs.Have bought some gorgeous white blinds with black floral print.

I like colour but tend to mix it with a bit of neutral/white.

Any ideas? Needs to be done by Sunday (my sons birthday -half repainted or prepared would be a nightmare) so need to decide quickly and go shopping tomorrow!!!

    I'd worry that duck egg would make the bathroom look cheap and tacky,although I do like the colour.

    Hmmm...pale coral?Will look for pics,to see how it looks
