Tiled shower floor practicalities?
I would love a shower room like this, but wonder if the tiled shower floor gets dirty very quickly and is much harder to keep clean than a white plastic shower tray? Also would it need to be converted into a wet room/tanked to have this effect?

What practical feature/item do you secretly crave for your house?
Comments (98)Lights which automatically turn on when I enter a room (especially in the kitchen and in the hallway from the bedroom to the bathroom) and lights inside my wardrobes (especially inside the one in the bedroom: I often get up earlier than my hubby, and it may be still dark outside, and I don't want to wake him up while I'm looking for my stockings)....See MoreBathroom floors - porcelain floor tiles or vinyl floor tiles?
Comments (18)Porcelain is a tough tile which will not crack or break easily. they are very long lasting. vinyl is out dated and just doesn't look good. Your other option should be ceramic tiles. So it should be between ceramic and porcelain. I'd still recommend porcelain but ceramic is cheaper, that's the biggest advantage of ceramic.

Comments (6)If you put the hexagons on the wall it could be too busy because they're so small. In this situation I'd recommend the hexagons for floor and plains for wall. The floor would also provide more grip with the small hexagons. Next time you'd like to use hexagons I'd recommend bigger hexagon tiles like these...See MoreWhich wall tiles to go with these floor tiles for en-suite shower room
Comments (10)Hi Vicki, I would go for bigger tiles, ones that are 60 cm x 30 cm. If you use smaller tiles the outcome may look too busy with your chosen floor tiles. I also suggest choosing very light grey wall tiles, the colour of which matches to the grey background colour of the floor tiles. That would give you the industrial sort of vibe you are aiming to achive. Order different samples and see how the combinations look in your bathroom. The colours can change dramatically depending on the lighting. Kati...See More

Also, maybe you've already thought about it or it might not be applicable, but think about where you put the shower taps. They don't have to be below the shower, you can put them near the entrance of the walk in shower, so you can turn it on without getting a dose of cold water.
