4 Bathrooms tiling colour/ design townhouse
Comments (8)I like the top right picture where the grey floor tile appears to run up the wall. But the floor tile looks lighter than the wall, is it a different tile? I would pick a lighter shade from the Kalala Shan as the 2nd tile. Does the tile shop have a contrasting colour from the same family of tiles? Not sure I would go 2 different textures, unless one was really flat and non descript to contrast with textured one that would be the stand out feature. Great colour choices though. And would look lovely coming off the spotted gum floors too!...See MoreDesign advice please on small bathroom reno to queen of UNcreativity!

Comments (1)HI,they are all lovely bathrooms (aside from the way too high mirrors, but then, I am small!) but the bottom two have styles that have been done to death on all those DIY shows.. i think the top two images are the most timeless in a contemporary way - they look "on trend" (i hate that expression, especially for bathrooms that need to stand the test of time) but accessible. I especially like the top one - it's new, it's fresh, but not faddish, if you know what i mean! Hope that helps in some way??...See MoreBathroom tile help x2
Comments (10)Our house is more contemporary with a touch of industrial. Tapware is brushed copper. That pattern laid in the pic you saw was from the visualiser and that was the only option but if we do go with the herringbone we’ll be laying it like the inspo photo. I’m just worried that with the smaller tile the herringbone won’t look like the inspo pic and might look too busy and so laying it vertical might have a better effect. The rest of the room will be in the light grey concrete tile but I’m tossing up between lighter plain tile or the slightly darker stone look tile for the rest of the room....See More

7 years ago- 7 years agoI prefer the industrial in this comparison but the traditional is more in keeping with the house as you can see from the traditional windows.
We went for Grey in our renovation too.

7 years agolast modified: 7 years agoInteresting range of comments - Is it that there is a general shift towards an industrial trend?
Topic is far too close for comfort, as I have a bathroom being tiled in a couple of days, have had tiles for a couple of months now, so doubt does set in!! A while back I probably thought I would go towards a traditional look, but looks like I have moved towards the industrial - which the family are fully supportive of - young adults and husband. Our home is . . . transitional, though I hesitate labelling it.
Also these images make me wonder if a cool grey is a more traditional look and a warm grey more representative of an industrial look or modern look?
These are my tiles:
Left pale grey/white for ensuite floor and walls, with white cabinetry work, centre mid grey for family bathroom & laundry floor, with white cabinetry work, right mid grey to darker grey for a large open plan area of kitchen/dinning/small sitting area.
They all feature flecks of whites, greys, taupes, even tans and blue greys.

I love them both but I like to merge the two together check out pics, we have recycled things from timber to tiles and made it all work from finding most out of auctions would love to know opinions . The support timber is from an old cray boat, the light fittings are from Russian jars, the jarrah bench is from a farm house and the rest of the jarrah was recycled from the original house.
7 years ago- 7 years agoIt partly depends on the style of your house /unit. Mine is a 1930's style unit. I decided to mix traditional with contemporary in my recent $12k bathroom renovation. I removed the bath to replace with frameless shower, and kept fixtures in the same place. The small hexagonal floor tiles and subway tiles are integrated visually through the same smokey grey grout work. The grey colour continues throughout the unit creating a calming atmosphere. The bamboo additions to the bathroom and Dulux Natural White painted walls above the subway tiles give the bathroom warmth. If you are creating a white bathroom I suggest you use low iron glass for shower cubicle. It's a bit more expensive but worth the $ to get less of that green tinge. Good luck with the decision making!
7 years agoDefinitely depends on the style of house, but I dont see why you cant combine traditional and industrial elements.
Personally, the top photo doesn't appeal to me because I don't like the floor and wall tiles together. It seems too busy, although I will admit, luxurious.
