Should we lay the tile on the diagonal?
Comments (5)Thanks Bill! The tile on the diagonal measures 18 5/8". This is a small room and I just thought putting the floor on the diagonal would add a little something. But doing it that way would mean the pieces would only only be about 2" and I'm afraid that it would look ridiculous. The tile is for the floor in front of the tub and the tile behind the tub was to be squared. Then again, if we put one whole tile in the middle and pieced it on both sides, the pieces would be about ll.25".

Comments (66)If you use lisa_a's with 2 entrances to the pantry it may just vent itself easily as I'd imagine the pocket entry door to it from the garage may stay open or ajar frequently. You could possibly fit it in the bump back to match the entrance stairs. Fridges in garages are pretty common around here but we have more issues with freezing temps than overly hot. Otherwise I'd put it in that spot in the garage where the writing says small appliances for inside the kitchen. That's not far of a walk at all....See MoreWhat size tile and how should I lay it out?
Comments (13)Any of those Beth posted or a REAL travertine or limestone will always be ‘in’. A good quality natural wood look will be a sure bet as well. I’m personally a little leery of the grey wood look floors as I feel those will quickly read as a fad. You need to assess your furnishings that you wish to reuse - is everything ‘warm’ or ‘cool’. Typically, a natural wood look will work either way. The original tile you posted is very pink and would only work in the very warm family of colors. Good luck and again I wasn’t trying to be snarky :)...See MoreHow should I lay out my combined dining + living room?
Comments (2)can you post a pic from the other direction? (stand next to fireplace) can the round dining table be placed closest to the kitchen? maybe off to the right in the foreground of your first picture as shown in your floor plan? are you putting a tv in there? where is the cable outlet? this layout is rather long and narrow. media cabinet lay out do you have an area rug? I like something like this to the left of the fireplace under the window or behind the sofa along one of the walls something like this would look cool. easy to hack w/Ikea Billy Bookcases....See MoreDP
