I have small downstairs wc that was black - with light wooden floor and white ceiling - otherwise it would have resembled a cave I think !! ( it's now esspreso brown with cream faux books - tried to take a photo - but need wide angle lens as its so small ) Try painting the Pine ceiling white !

Although I particularly like those sparkly black tiles, and I do agree, sometimes black can give a glamorous feel to a room, I feel as though an all-black bathroom would make it feel significantly smaller, which is why I chose white. White can open up a room a little better, giving the impression that the room is a little bigger (despite being a nightmare when it comes to showing dirt). This bathroom we designed is mainly white with hints of black like the bathtub and a feature wall: the best of both worlds.

Hi! It's not essential to remove the black mould first, but you'd probably want to do that first. Tiles are really trick when it comes to mould and mildew, a lot of the time it's not about completely preventing it but staying on top of it. Having a plastic trim will definitely help with containing the issue, but maybe look at getting a plumber to seal it with some sealant. There's a section in this blog post about cleaning mould off of sealant that could be helpful if you wanted to take a read of it.
