I think something like that would look great! Make a little trip north up to Lake Worth and go to Padron Tile. It’s an amazing family owned tile shop that’s been around forever, huge selection of all kinds of tiles. I used them for my entire home remodel and was very impressed, even my contractor now recommends them to all of his clients.

Here is a best bath we did in our home with very similar tile.

You can check flatness by taking a pair of tiles and placing them face to face or back to back. If there is any gapping around the edges or in the center when you look at them from the side, then they are not perfectly flat. That doesn't mean that they can't be used. It just means that they will look better if they are not laid in an overlapping pattern where you get lippage, and it is important, if they are bowed, that it is consistent from tile to tile. I did a small bathroom in 18" square tiles that were perfectly flat and I still chose to align the tiles in a standard, straight set pattern. Lippage

Hello, Since you are planning on keeping the vanity cabinets with dark granite countertops along with white subway tiles, I think an easy solution would be to bridge the gap between the countertop and the subway tile by using a white marble look floor tile with dark veins. Below are just a couple of tiles I found on Houzz. I think using light-colored floor tiles would keep the bathrooms from looking too small or dark compared to using darker floor tiles. Are you also planning on painting the walls? I think painting the walls in a gray color would be also a quick and inexpensive way of making sure the whole space looks good. The current paint color looks like it's on the yellow side and I think your tiles, granite countertop, and the brown vanities would definitely look better if the yellow walls went gray.

It's difficult to help pick colors based on computer screen and picture variations, but I think the bold colors take away from your pretty tile. I personally like a gray-blue or gray color when looking at your tile. I played around with Sherwin Williams color and found these two as an example: All of these colors will vary depending on lighting and larger samples help make things easier to see. Once you settle on a few colors, get some sample cups and paint poster board edge to edge leaving no white border. Place it around the room and see how you like it!

I think changing the tile in the bathroom would be fine. I wouldn't change your hallway though. I really like the way it's laid out and I would keep it for continuity since you have it in the rest of the house. How would you end it? There's no door at the end of the hall. You'd need a threshold. I wouldn't break it up. Curious what the pros will say.

come to find out you don't need a threshold or rather a saddle if the floors are the same level.

K R do you know if Pardon tile is for regular customers or just contractors? Looks like exactly what I am looking for.

I love the tiles in your hallway! I also think it's OK to do different tiles in the two spaces since your bathroom is its own separate room. Could be the lighting, but your current tiles look to be in the terracotta color family, but your chosen bathroom tiles are cool colors. If the gray in the new tile was warmer, I think it would flow better. Any other options you're considering?

Do you have a Floor & Decor near you? Inexpensive yet can be rich-looking, and you can walk around their large place to gather and set up different combinations.

Cle tile is more $$, but since it's a small space maybe you could do it?
