Hello Annie, These beautiful tiles are from Fired Earth, about 10 years ago. They were hand made with a different leaf pressed into each tile before firing! https://www.firedearth.com/

I wouldn't put split face behind a hob either. You can have a feature from more practical and easy to clean material and have split face as the rest of the splash back.

Perhaps you could use the mantle elsewhere - even faux fireplaces can make for a nice focal point if you need a feature in your newly repositioned living room? I also think the way a house 'flows' is one of the most important elements of how well a space 'fits' it's owner. You've got to make it work for you and the way you like to live, if that means switching some of the rooms round then absolutely go ahead. Especially if it's going to be a long term or forever home.

If your budget will allow, consider a wider upstand. Rather than the standard 100 mm (4 in) I assume is priced in, maybe consider 150 or 180 mm instead. The added height may catch additional splashes and extend the life of your paint, but will still give you the seamless look you are after. Per the previous comment, choose your kitchen paint wisely and it should wipe clean pretty well. For our white walled clients, we have been using Dulux Ultra White paint with great success. Looks like a great space - enjoy it!

Tile the entire floor or only up to behind the plinths?
Q

My builder boarded the whole floor with floor grade chipboard and then tiled on top. It’s done the trick. I’m not sure insulating boarding is rigid enough to prevent cracking? Remember my previous tiler said paving over boards is okay with a grid and flexible grout but he was wrong! May I suggest, if you want to of course, you start a new advice question asking if tiling over insulation tiles is okay? There are several people on here with the right skills to advise you more than I can. Sorry to cause you more hassle but better to get the right info before it’s too late.
