Bathroom Tiling

Bring in texture

Textured unpolished stone is big due to the feel-good factor in today's bathroom. Try using light-coloured tiles, such as sandstone, limestone or travertine, to add a subtle, warm tone into a white bathroom.

Revamp with rectangles

Rectangles provide more design possibilities. Use tiles vertically on the floor and horizontally on the wall. Or play with scale by using large tiles for expansive surfaces and small tiles as a feature.

Soften a bathroom

How do you steer your bathroom from a clinical feel? Just add water. Accents of blue or green are soothing while still light and bright. Used in small doses, they soften a space.

I like polished porcellain and have it on my kitchen floor,yes it is very high maintenance to keep clean but otherwise very attractive and clean looking.

We have used a strip of tumbled stone on our white bathroom tiles and a beige marble floor and once sealed has given us no problems. We love the look. The tumbled stone does not get water as I don't think that would be good idea. Glad to see that it has reinforced what we have done.
