bathroom tiles

Planning a new bathroom but not sure of what tiles to go for? I think I just want biege/natural colour but are borders still in fashion? What are other people fitting?

plain white, with transfers on some.
then we can change the transfers when the mood suits us.

I got a plain stone effect beige ones, they are quite big (and cheap), had them fitted floor to ceiling with the matching floor tiles. I used the grout in the different colour - dark grey - and it looks fab against all the white and chrome bathroom fittings and furniture.

We've got sort of sand effect ones, with a narrow graphite border at eye level, then steel and graphite fittings.

Good afternoon: Inexpensive white tiles with glass borders/insets are popular at the minute with the OH's clients.

Take a look on porcelnosa website and CTD,These sites will show you whats in and whats not!

Have had a few jobs recently with 900mm x 315mm tiles ,Brick bond effect is still in fashion but is way too common now!

Bathrooms-alwasy go for white or near white. Its always in fashion,always looks clean and bright. Colours and fashions change and its not cheap to retile/remodel a bathroom.

I've recently replaced the white tiles in my bathroom with large beige tiles and matching floor tiles.

I regretted my white tiles last time as they were high maintenance keeping them and the grout clean.

I'm loving my new look bathroom though I will no doubt feel fed up with it like I did with my previous bathroom.

Just go for what you want.

What sort of beige are they? Because mine are like sand I can change to look quite easily with different textiles and ornaments.
I've got dark brown at the moment but in a few weeks when it's summery I'll change to a Med theme with turquoise bits and bobs, and maybe orange.
