Tiling in a cloakroom
Hello,
I am renovating my home and building a cloakroom utilising under stairs space. The cloakroom has no window.
I have white toilet basin with chrome taps and beige floor tiles. There will be a large bathroom mirror above the sink. I am considering large white matt wall tiles along all the walls - I do not wish to include a pattern/motif as it may not age well, i will get bored of it.
The space is quite small so i wish to be a bit minimalistic in the approach, however am concerned it may look quite clinical.
Should i tile upto the ceiling on all sides or halfway up?
Welcome any suggestions so it doesnt look clinical.
Not sure if this will come through, these are the tiles i am considering:

Tiles to match cloakroom wallpaper
Comments (1)How wide is the cloakroom? Is there any way of carrying the paper round to the back wall where I assume the loo is? Do you have a pic of the vanity top? I'd just pick up one of the colours in the paper for the tiles, personally I think I'd go for the yellow, or go with white if you want the tiles to blend in...See Moretiling cloakroom

Comments (12)Thank you Sonia. They have now removed the tiles on one side and are re-tiling with corner matching. They have an obsession with grout lines and not the tile pattern! We probably don’t have enough tiles left for remedial work one side - the least awful side - each end of this wall has a cut tile even though one end is obscured by a radiator and the door. They should have used a whole tile at the sink end and a sliver by the door architrave. We should have learnt from the plank with a giant filled knot in the most obvious place in our open plan space. Do we really have to treat them like babies and lay everything out for them? Many Thanks, Clare...See Morepainting tiles
Comments (4)You could possibly add a metal strip but I’m not sure how you’d fit it to existing tiles. I’d also be conscious of adding another colour or texture given there are 5 different blues not including the wallpaper. I’d have tried to match the blue tiles for the paint rather than adding two different further blues or used a different colour from the wallpaper all together. It’s a small space that’s going to look busy and hodgepodge...See More- last year

Hi,
Yes it’ll be a floating sink.
Have attached a picture of the floor tiles - they look warmer than the picture
I haven’t bought the mirror yet however it will be a plain rectangular mirror about 80cm wide and 90/100cm tall which has hidden storage behind it.
Re wall tiling - that is my concern whether it’ll look dated/cold to have these large format tiles (60x30cm) from floor to ceiling )

last yearI love minnie101’s suggestion of Zelig tiles, so pretty. I wouldn’t tile all the walls, just the bit above the sink. Or you can go dramatic with, say, dark green tiles half way up and keep the floor and wall above the tiles light.
