I think it's going to be a challenge to make it look like a feature rather than a patch. I'd suggest being much bolder than a white on white design. Perhaps use something that ties in the beige with some other color(s) you want to bring into the room as an accent. I'm giving a link to a site with some beautiful glass mosaics to inspire you. You can also play with their custom blend builder to see what color combinations you like. For example, on the "Subway 1x3 inch blends" page, check out Amazon and Urban Camo 10. On the Bijou 2 Inch glass page, I love the Retro Turquoise with Caramel, and also the Urban Mix 10. If he has to rip out the bullnose above those 12 tiles, that's going to be even more of a challenge. For one thing, the bullnose is offset from the field tile, so I don't know how he's going to do it cleanly above the tile to the left of the toothbrush holder. And you'll need to rely on his skill to not damage the tiles on the perpendicular wall. Also, it looks like you'll need a radius bullnose, and not all tile lines include that shape. You could ask him to suggest specific lines of tile that would work for that bullnose, and see if any of them please you. Bill V. can chime in here, but I *think* it's the shape that American Olean calls A4200. You can see it in their "Matte" line and their "Bright" line. Hope this helps....

In the bathroom with my pivot mirror, there is 12” from the bottom edge of the mirror to the top of the vanity counter. In the bathroom with my oak trimmed longer rectangular mirror, there is 9” from the bottom edge of the mirror to the top of the vanity counter. You have to see at what level your mirror looks best above your counter. It depends on the mirror length and how you want it to look. I think you have to personalize it for each space❣️

cute bathroom. love the tile. ( let me show you some pictures and how to make that room look better) While I like the idea of that tile, I just don't think doing a small bit of it behind the sink would look the best. They have this pic on Retro Renovation that;s similar to your idea, but it looks better because it's also used as the sink surround. Art deco bathrooms or the 50's baths w/those tiles, were usually done completely around the wall. https://retrorenovation.com/2014/04/01/black-white-tile-bathroom-1930s/ If you wanted to do that tile, I might choose to do that entire wall. You could do a tile wainscot w/the black edging tile (like shown here) at the top. You could do a white or black tile. they're pretty inexpensive. Or, do the whole wall surround like this. (and make sure to do the window trim like this one too) The other option for the wainscot would be a beadboard or a board and batten. leaving the walls plain and void like you have it, doesn't really match the style of the tile. if you can't tile the walls, do the wainscot and the trim around the window: or a board and batten,,,,green above. Beadboard wainscot and ceiling, soft sage walls. either of these would really bring your tile together w/the vanity and accessories. vertical nickel gap panel. do the walls in green if you like. Did you know you could do a stained glass overlay on your windows? I did it with mine. Otherwise, you're just going to get this look: plain walls. which option do you think looks better? another option, do the walls white and paint the trim work a soft green to coordinate w/the tiles But I'd still do the wainscot

Hello CK- Although we frequently do use a 4-6 inch backsplash made out of matching material to the countertop, we have also used tile in a vertical position as a backsplash for a fresh, modern look. Even if you could purchase an identical 6 inch quartz piece, the vertical tile backsplash will add more texture and dimension for visual interest, or "excitement" as your contractor suggested, in a very neutral space. I attached some pictures of a tile that could be a good consideration for your project and some pictures of backsplashes we recently completed with tile and with a backsplash matching the countertop. This link is to a white tile that is a favorite of ours, called Cloe in white: https://www.bedrosians.com/en/product/detail/cloe-ceramic/?itemNo=DECCLOWHI28G&moq=true&gclid=CjwKCAjw0dKXBhBPEiwA2bmObale6YudyahRloMH3jTIT4_PaoN3OCCOUJyOwMIvAA9uDRoR5VP0ixoCaisQAvD_BwE
