Comments (8)You're welcome! This is an exciting project and I really hope you'll share the results, whatever you decide to do! I think metro tiles are the right way to go. You've already got pattern and bold colour covered so something more simple is probably right for the walls. Besides, it's a classic design. You could do it with a dark grout if you wanted to make a bolder statement. [This Houzz story[(https://www.houzz.co.uk/magazine/decorating-10-different-ways-to-use-classic-metro-tiles-stsetivw-vs~25104664) about metro tiles shows them mostly with dark grout and might help you visualise it. Marble would definitely work and look incredible. Just be careful to bear in mind the structure of the unit and how much weight it can hold. You have to consider the weight of the surface material, the sink, and the water it would have in it when full. Maybe even think about what you're going to fill the cupboards with and how heavy that could be. Perhaps it would be worth reinforcing the vanity in some way. Other than marble you could use tiles or just varnish the surface really well. All of these options will look great in different ways. Even though you're not DIY-ing it, take a look at this "how-to" to give you a better idea of the process.

Comments (0)Hello all, I’ve been driving myself a bit mad trying to choose bathroom tiles. I think I’ve settled on the wall tiles in the photo, the sink unit in the pic is the one I’ve bought. Wall tiles are going to ceiling in the shower but half tile the rest of the room (partly because of budget and I like the flexibility of changing the colour of the walls). I don’t necessarily want to match the floors with the walls, I’ve been thinking perhaps black hexagons, wood effect in herringbone or even just a simple dark grey porcelain tile. It’s quite a small space (2.5 x 2.5) with not much floor space showing as the room is an L shape. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I’m getting a bit fed up of thinking about it now! Thanks in advance x...See Moretiled skirting in a bathroom - using wall or floor tiles?
Comments (3)On top of the skirting? No way! I think that would look awful. Far too bulky in a sleek designed room. We have an ensuite which has the wall tiles sitting on top of the floor tiles to give the impression of more of a wet room effect. We also have a main bathroom and in here have the floor tiles cut to the size of the skirting that was originally in there height wise and then placed on top of the floor tiles So one room has nothing and the other room has the floor tiles up the wall as a skirting....See Morefrandixon
