Lol, Jesse, I had to study that photo AVSinteriors posted forever to figure out what you meant about the tile direction but after I did I do see what you mean. I never thought of it that way but logic states the water would run off the vertical lengths of grout far more successfully than it will the horizontal! I went in the current family bathroom and had a look at the tiling - very interesting. And a plan changer. I'm glad we hadn't gone too far in planning the shower area yet. Well spotted you on that tile, this is the first time I've heard anyone mention that! I love the inset teak mat-floor for the shower area of that wetroom, too.

Wow it looks like a different room completely!

Hello Melissa. We get asked this all the time! Each piece of marble is so unique, with beautiful veining, which simply cannot be copied when it comes to a composite. However, Silestone 'Lagoon' & Caesarstone 'London Grey' tend to be P&P clients favourites. Another design trick to get some of real marble into your kitchen is to use a Simple white or grey composite with a lovely real marble splash back... I would only recommend this behind a sink though. See the attached that I reference often including a P&P kitchen with Caesarstone 'London Grey' worktops. Good luck! Best, Camilla (P&P)

Definitely, my friend has done just that. So granite worktop and upstand, but where the window is the upstand reaches the window ledge, and then the ledge is covered in granite too. Very easy to keep cleaned and very tidy!
