Wall tile size 13x26 too big for small bathroom?
Comments (7)I like the larger tile in the rectangle shape. I think it will make the tub area if not the whole bathroom look and feel more open & airy. DS1&2's baths have 9x18 tiles in a brick pattern and they look really nice. To add onto treasure's equation above...less grout lines = less potential for mildew/mold = less/easier cleaning....See MoreBathroom tile help! Are my choices too much?
Comments (29)I used Whisper Gray Tile Shop grout and it's perfect. It is the lightest gray available. I grouted a demo sheet myself first to check it out. Great $20 spent to try a grout color before you commit!! You aren't supposed to use Sanded Grout for Polished stones as it could scratch them. We ended up doing it anyway (not heeding my own advice I guess) but our Tile Guy was very careful with a sponge and delicate. Sanded grout holds better than Unsanded also. On our honed floor we also did sanded. So for my master if I have this dilemma, I would go Epoxy grout. More $ but best choice. My bathroom I'll share pictures of will hardly be used (off a bonus room, not any bedroom)....See MoreMaster Bedroom, Bathroom and Closet too small?
Comments (27)When you build with the WOW and 4k square feet, (which sounds like a lot but is not ) . It is NOT when you give starring role /NEARLY five hundred sq ft of it to a great room in front of the entry. Another couple hundred to a "hearth" area ......and what will happen here is nobody will actually gather in the great room, the fire will be the traffic stopper. Then you give each of three bedrooms a "walk in " closet. etc Result? you are left with the master suite that seems ( is) out of scale to the wow in the middle. Also small scale kid/guest bedrooms. The only answer to this plan is to lose a chunk of the "covered porch" square off the kitchen corner, bump the master suite to flush with the kitchen exterior wall.Change the window, to two on the covered porch wall and center the bed between. Plan to lose the tub for a decent shower too. Adjust bath and closet , center the entry to those with a right and left side for each. Anything else requires a total overhaul of the plan. That would mean a second story with two beds and baths on a second floor. ..........a completely different house. But this much under roof on one floor, with allocation to functions as is ? Yup......this is what you get Bump the master suite....or build something else.. ( square off that breakfast nook in any scenario.)...See MoreSame tiles bathroom walls, laundry and kitchen splashback? too much??
Comments (9)I do like to have a separation in looks between a kitchen and bathroom. When we made our powder room, which is very much next to the kitchen, it was important to feel like there was a psychological separation between the two spaces. Also nice for guests to feel that separation too when they go to the John! I would think about a variation on the theme for the kitchen. Are there similar tiles but different size shape and lighter grout?...See Morewritersblock (9b/10a)
