There are so many options out there and as much as I love trawling Pinterest myself and looking at display homes, it can be overwhelming!! I hope by visiting more displays tomorrow you get some clarity. You have great taste so I'm sure it will be lovely no matter what you pick Re: Our First Dream Home Wk 13 Stone Measure&Hopefully Insta 251Apr 23, 2018 1:40 am Dani_J Gosh tiles are just the hardest to get right IMO.

I hope by visiting more displays tomorrow you get some clarity. You have great taste so I'm sure it will be lovely no matter what you pick Thank you Dani, I find it hard to trust my sense of style. From the displays I learn that I actually like busy bathrooms better than the ‘generic’ everyday. So now I’m thinking of going with a Carrara on the floor a matte white subway on the wall and the herringbone. It’s no less busy but it’s not as dark on the floor. I’m going to have a bit more of a think about it over the next couple of days and see how I feel then.

Here’s some inspo from a display I went to on the weekend. This is a new Granview Home done in Hamptons style. Sounds similar I think to what your thinking.

Busy bathrooms are stunning with the right combinations, a light floor, a stand out feature like your black cabinet and a pattern on the wall makes perfect sense. I love the herringbone lay pattern, we will be having chevron in our laundry this time . Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I had a similar idea with our ensuite and used carrara floor tiles and charcoal herringbone tiling laid through the niche. You could have one whole wall herring bone and the other 3 walls something else maybe the carrara? Or a white wall tile but it needs to be the same size as the floor tile because your pattern is the feature and you don’t want mismatch lines. Good luck with the choices Our First Dream Home Wk 13 Stone Measure&Hopefully Install 254Apr 23, 2018 7:21 pm Oh I love love love that bathroom Dani. Thank you for the advice and suggestions Tribe.

Finally locked our tiles in. We weren’t tiling to the roof due to budget constraints but all of the ideas I had for the walls like herringbone and Carrara would have looked a bit silly to me having the mismatched standard heights. So we bit the bullet and upgraded the tiling to the ceiling. We’ve gone with a ‘sharp’? Carrara wall tile and the stream grey floor tile.

They are back on deck now and have hung the doors and fit the architraves.

Polytec natural oak ravine Hi All, we are starting to think of building with Masterpiece Builders in Victoria, has anyone had any feedback or experience with them 0 7441 1 1029 Thanks NativeZen! I can't wait to start landscaping, though it's going to be a while away yet. No movement on site yet as of the weekend. Hoping to see some earthworks… 3 2148 |
