I have found that light blue shades in a bathroom often shift depending on the time of day and the fixtures around them.
Pairing those blues with warm neutrals can soften the overall look but only if the undertones match well across the trim and flooring.
Testing matters more than it seems.
I usually put a few sample boards near the tub and watch how they interact with the daylight coming through the window.
That step helps avoid surprises when the full room comes together with the chosen neutrals.

This bathroom uses a soft light blue on the walls that feels calm and slightly muted.
