Love the tiles - where are they from and what colour are they?

Hello Nichola, the tiles are from Mandarin Stone, they are limestone with a pillow edge. I hope that helps, but feel free to ask some more. Best wishes, Martin

I wouldn't choose a wall colour based on the tiles, I would choose a wall colour that works for the size and aspect of the room (if it happens to be a colour picked form the tile then great) and then find something smaller such as a painting or accessory that ties it together. Ochre would be a really good accent colour for them but you may not want it on all of your walls.

That's interesting colourhappy - we did omit the aqua tiles and put just the taupe with blanco (which has some grey tones in the variations) but it looked a little bland which is why we thought the aqua might liven it up but now I'm thinking you are right and they are too cool for the flagstones.

As Sonia said - there is a huge array of Victorian tiles! I can highly recommend a company in Derby called Alternative Tiles (they work nationally too) - they specialise in Victorian tiles. When I had my small porch done, I gave them my measurements and they asked what kind of colours I liked. They then did a few different designs for me on their computer. The tiles that you posted from Topps are nice - but because they are essentially normal tiles, they don’t give you much variety or many options. If you go for a more authentic version such as the ones that Sonia has shared or the type that I described, you will get a truly bespoke end product. Be warned though - it’s not cheap because you need a specialist to lay them! We joke that our (tiny) porch is the most expensive square metre in our entire house. The tiles used in the more authentic versions are usually from a company called Original Style. I’ve hopefully linked their Victorian brochure. https://www.originalstyle.com/media/106774/original-style_vft_june-2019.pdf

After a delay, now in the middle of renovating the bungalow but I'm having second thoughts about the colour of the windows. Currently have slate grey tiles and white fascias. I was planning to go with white windows (although the fascias are RAL 9010 and the windows only available in RAL 9003, so slightly different whites!), but I really like painswick/agate grey RAL 7038 windows on other properties. I'd welcome any advice before making a decision! I'm also unsure about the render colour for the front of the house to go with RAL 9003 windows. The back of the house is brick.
