I think they'll go together nicely. It will, however, be a very "heavy" (or masculine) look. Is that what you want?

I agree it just depends on the look you want. It all definitely goes together. It will be monochromatic and may be on the dark side depending on how much non-tiled wall space you have and what color you plan to use on that space.

We just finished a shower with large format tile. Before you start, diagram out how you want the tile in the shower to be installed. Larger profile requires that the walls are really straight and floor level as it is very hard to "adjust" the tile, so you have to plan ahead. We had a window in our shower that was not centered and we had to work around that as the larger profile made the narrower side look odd. We used a special grout that has quartz in it and had just a 1/16' grout line. Turned out great but the larger profile really presented issues we hadn't anticipated. My husband did all the work. If you are having someone else do it, make sure they don't take shortcuts that would take away from the look of the larger profile. We didn't want it bricklaid and one tile guy that we talked to said that would be the easy way to do it. I wanted it laid vertically but had to settle for horizontal but stacked. Turned out nice. You can search for pictures on here under my post, Master Bath Reveal.

You might want to post under Bathroom Forums. Very knowledgeable people there too. That is where my pictures are of our bathroom.

Gray is a very cold color that especially on gloomy days may feel depressing. I'm also concerned that you're partnering it with a warm color, espresso, which to the eye will not look harmonious, and might make the room look chopped up. I must admit I have doubts about this color scheme.

Having remodeled several bathrooms and in the process of remodeling the kitchen, I know how difficult it is to find all the coordinating elements. Lucky you! I like your choices. The bathroom will be modern and sophisticated. I disagree that the look is heavy, depressing, or exclusively masculine. You will be able to accent the grays with towels and such. So many color directions to go.

I did post on bathrooms about some items but finalizing tile choice seemed like a decor question!

I like a monochromatic, soothing spa type look and want to make fairly neutral choices since this is not intended to be our forever home and tile can easily go in and out of style but I felt this was a pleasing choice and yet neutral enough for any future potential buyers. We also considered white subway tile but I do not want to clean lots of grout and white tile in a shower. A contractor will be installing the tile, I will let his tile guy figure out the best way to lay out the tile they work with this format a lot, but I did specify vertical on the shower wall. For the floor, should I have them run it parallel to the vanity (along the length of the bathroom) or across the shorter distance? I'm thinking parallel to the long side.

I actually like greys with wood tones, the expresso vanity will help warm up the tile, which actually does have warm undertones in better light (the store's fluorescent light made it look harsher, see the customer pictures on the product website)

We live in sunny California - not very sunny the last few days but I don't find grey colors in a home depressing unless they are battleship grey and not softened by anything else like fluffy white towels and warm colored wood. I realize not everyone likes grey but obviously I do or I wouldn't have picked these tiles! We don't over-use it in our house.

I am considering whether we should use any accent tile, a vertical element may be nice. We will have a niche against the back wall, we will have 2 glass walls so there is no place for a niche across from the shower head unfortunately - that would have been my preferred position but we decided the open look of a glass end wall would look better - this is the glass:

and here is a picture of the "before" when we first moved in

and yesterday:

I agree it may be very masculine but think it would look very nice. We are doing something similar in our new build, although we went with light gray large format tiles, and I think it is turning out well. Our vanity is a dark stained cherry and we have used accent tile both on the walk perpendicular to the shower head and as a short backsplash around the vanity. Here are a few in-progress pictures (shower glass and vanity mirror have not yet been installed). The vanity (which floats) is not as dark as it appears in these pictures.

Very nice, namarie! I was looking for a tile more similar to yours, but was unable to find anything in stock that I liked, all were either too much motion/stone effect or the wrong color. So I went a bit darker than I'd planned but I think it will be nice. There is no natural light in the bathroom so we will have plenty of lighting, I think it will be just right.

You need a backsplash tile behind that vanity and I think the wider the better because of the different levels and tall faucets, so maybe 8" behind the sinks. I would draw this up on graph paper. Then I'd use the backsplash tile inside a large shower niche.

We don't need a backsplash, and I think it would probably look strange with this style of vanity. If we decide we want one we'd probably tile the floor tile up the wall, rather than having different tile there.

Here's how the bathrooms turned out! We will have white rugs and towels that soften the look, I think it turned out very "spa" which is what we wanted.

Master After

master - shower is behind the door in that view:

Master before, (we painted everything and framed the mirror as a facelift)

After - the hall/guest bath

It will have white waffle weave shower curtain, floors are not final-cleaned here still some grout haze.
