Large marble tile (6x12) backsplash
Comments (11)That kitchen has always been one of my favorites. I think it's on the Sub Zero website and I've seen it called "Hot Chocolate". I LOVE the way they did those tiles. Just wondering if some of the effect might be lost if it's just behind the range. I don't know the answer to that, just something to think about. Maybe if you draw out in pencil the 6X12 shape you'll get a better feel. I hope you go for it. I'm considering it for my backsplash!! I love "oversized" elements and my range wall has no upper cabs on it. Just flanked by 2 windows....See MoreTile layout suggestions for 6x12 wall and 12x24 floor
Comments (3)I'd want to do the same type of layout. But I'm kind of rigid like that in my thinking. It might look too close in layout, that the other looks like it was put in by mistake. So the limiting factor is the large format tile, recommended not to do a 50% offset. So I'd do the same with the wall, unless you really deviated from the pattern and did something totally different, like a stacked or herringbone. Again that is my take on it. Maybe others have other ideas and images of examples....See More12 x 24" tile too large for small bathroom?
Comments (12)thanks everyone. I'm glad you agree with the 12 x 24 because I really like the look. And I will skip the border tile which was iffy in my mind. For the person who told me to fix the layout size, I wish I could. Only eliminating my bedroom closet or an extension on the house could fix the problem. So I'm making the best of it. It works as a 1 person bathroom, and is off the master bedroom so it's not such a problem....See MoreWhat are your thoughts on 12”x24” tiles verses 12”x12”?
Comments (4)Make sure you, or your contractor uses a lippage control kit, sometimes called levelers, so that you have a nice flat floor installation. Since larger tiles have become more popular in recent years, the slight bowing has become an issue. If you install them in a brick pattern (50% offset) you will have lippage. So install them in a 1/3rd offset instead, and use a lippage control kit. Those are my thoughts....See MoreILoveRed
