Are you putting it in the kitchen also? I have the same dilemna. I also have the issue of requiring sound insulation regupol in an apartment and what gets out down first, the kitchen joinery and floor around or joinery on top. I have selected tongue n groove but have a very uneven concrete floor which now need levelling and doubling flooring costs. So check that you have fairly even underfloor for engineered flooring.

I think it is good to mix up the warm and cool colours. We have warm furniture too so its just the walls that are cool. I even have a beige/stone coloured curtain next to the grey wall and it looks so nice. Because this is an open plan room do you think those type of tiles will be too busy? I always go for plain things but i can see how something like that would look really good! This is one big room with lounge, dining, kitchen and french doors that open to a massive decking. I will post a pic of the whole thing when the final benchtop and tiles go on

Hi there, I think the main thing to stick to is choosing one way to tie each room together, whether you do that via colour, shape, pattern, etc. It's also important to be mindful of features in each room - you don't want to walk in and be bombarded with more than your eye can take. You want an awesome feature and then everything trails behind that :)

Love those! I think you've found it! Otherwise if you're after a more encaustic tile finish (more matte, stone look which I love) you can find them. If you're in Melbourne, Schots have one called Versus, but there's lots of brands that do them if you search encaustic diamond tiles?!
