Kid's bathroom floor tile
Comments (3)I like the photo you gave as an example. He smaller 1x1 tiles on the floor are a good idea, it will make the space look larger with the contrast of the larger white subway tile. The stripes in the shower curtain are good too pushing the eye out creating width. Kids are messy so having appropriate storage for all their goodies is important, keeping the room organized will make it feel bigger....See MoreFloor tiles to go with aluminium kickplates?
Comments (12)Thanks soooo much for the advice, everyone! I've spoken to the hubs, and it looks like we're pretty set on the black/white combo. He's not keen on wood in the kitchen at all. I hear what you're all saying about tying it with the floor, so I'm thinking of something like this tile as a linear accent and then using it as a backsplash behind the stove? I can't decide between the little square mosaics and the linear. The square has little stainless steel accents that will tie in with the kickplates but I prefer the look of the linear. Off to the big smoke tomorrow - hope I can find samples of the linear that incorporate little metallic bits! Rina, so nice to see another South African here!

Comments (32)Tiles are one way to introduce some pops of colour in your kitchen. If you are worried about the grout discolouring, use epoxy grout which is more resilient to liquid staining. Also, if you use a coloured grout, discolouration will be less noticeable. If you choose textured tiles with rectilinear edges, grout lines are almost invisible. Using tiles can look more traditional compared to glass or stainless steel. The problem with stainless steel is keeping it looking good. Drip marks and grease are instantly noticeable. Glass is less obvious when splashed. They are both more industrial and modern looking. What about using the same material that makes up your worktop as the splashback? Most manufacturers of manmade worktops also do an 11mm thick splashback and upstand....See MoreKitchen splashback dilemma
Comments (8)I don't believe there will be much difference in price between a glass splash back and stone. I believe the white metro tiles and grey grout (repeating the grout to the floor tiles) will work very well, and my preference would be a matt finish. Kitchen accessories and the oak shelf will avoid it looking too bland. Alternatively, you could opt to make a bold statement by using some of the wacky tile designs that are out there, but then I would suggest considering using a white shelf opposed to oak so the tiles take centre stage....See MoreDiane Froland Levine
