hexagon tile advice for bathroom please
Comments (2)Hi, I ordered my 1" hex's from http://hextile.com/ The black and white are sold in separate sheets and you can easily create you own mosiacs. Other size hex's are also available. This company also has a few different types of hex's to pick from (historic, matte, semi gloss etc). I looked at the tiles in HD myself initially and quickly ran away...I thought they were poor quality and very cheap looking to the eye. Do not cut the white tiles out though! Gently and carefully pull them off the mesh backing and replace them with the black ones in the desired pattern. Hope the link helps you, good luck....See MoreNeed help with metal choice for bathroom. Brass, Matte Black, Chrome?
Comments (4)Jane, thank you for the input. I should have posed my question a bit clearer. I need help with metal for lighting, faucets, etc. I'm looking for suggestions for the entire (overall) look of the bathroom. At first I was going with polished nickel, but the faucet I want to use (Delta/trinsic) does not come in polished nickel. The light fixtures I Iike only come in polished nickel and not chrome. It's just so frustrating. I thought I could do mixed metals, but unsure of that too. I read a number of folks say don't mix polished nickel and chrome. I was thinking matte black, but nervous. My husband won't go for brass (after posing my above question), though I agree, it would be interesting. Thank you again, and if you have any other thoughts, I'd greatly appreciate them. The double vanity is 80" (white), there will be a free standing tub (white), with separate shower in white subway tiles, the quartz counter tops are a medium gray, dark slate floors, and lastly white walls. It's so hard for me to use my imagination and picture different metals in the space....See Morecan it work to use Matt black file in a windowless bathroom?
Comments (4)I was the one who insisted on dimmers on all of our bathroom lights. But…we have never used the dimmer in the shower. We just turn on the light, full strength, to shower with. We also have a dimmer on the recessed light over the toilet. That one is used, especially at night time. It can function as a night light, or just a soft light when needing the bathroom in the middle of the night. Or if someone is ill. We have sconces on dimmers on either side of the sinks. But we tend not to dim those lights, either. Th sconce switch is the first switch on the panel of lights and is the switch we usually turn on fully when we enter the room. Note: our Master does not have a tub. When we remodeled our guest bathroom, which I use to take baths in, I did install a dimmer on the recessed light over the tub there. And I dim that occasionally. I just suggest that you actually think about how you use light in your bathroom. Where you need it. When you need it to be bright. Where you might enjoy having the capacity to dim it. Why you want to dim it. Atmosphere? As a night light? Think it through....See MoreComplimentary wall tile for hexagon floor in bathroom
Comments (31)C F, You have a statement tub and faucet fixture. Note: will there be no shower? Back on topic: Regardless of whether the rest of the house has a plain aesthetic, its OK to go big in a single room, as long as you aren't trying to recreate Versailles in the middle of a Cape Cod or a Venetian palace in an economic ranch. Depending on your region and the home type, wainscoting is a great surface treatment. It may look out of place in some regional home types like AZ, CA or Las Vegas. It will quickly humble a decorative feature without detracting or overshadowing it like I think your hexagonal floor tile would on the wall. Otherwise, there have been so many recent takes on subway tile which also could dress down the tub appropriately. The correct grout would be part of that solution. I think what you are hoping for is a room that doesn't look overly ornate in a somewhat plain or at least unadorned home that has a bold and effective statement piece. From what I have seen, that is relatively where Farmhouse Modern is pointing, so you could finish the room with lighting that is less bold than the hex tile but also has modern lines, a toilet that has contemporary lines, and a cabinet set with Shaker doors or doors that are a bit dressier, but not more than the tub/faucet. Let the tub be the star....See MoreImperial Flooring Inc.
