Help- design my bathroom

williams55

Hi folks
This is doing head in . Ive got enough 600x600 porcelain tiles left over from my kitchen to do the bathroom . They are a really nice tile , polished cream ,hence it would be shame not to use them on the floor . Modern home so i want a bit of the woh factor . Ive just finished installing 8 spotlights in a circle and they look great so i want to build upon this . Problem i have is what colour scheme should i go with . I love the creame and brown theame but tester tile of brown looks to dark with the floor tile . I m not even sure whether to fully tile or half paint .
Need a bit of help here with colours folks , maybe a stripe of brown or something . Naturally i what it to look really up to date so any help would be great as i havnt a clue .
cheers
williams

Hi

I am in the same dilemma over bathroom schemes.

Personally if you want the wow factor than tiling all the way is the way to go as I far as I am concerned it gives that luxury hotel feel.

Best thing to do is go through magazines or the internet to get ideas of what you like and copy those. I think if you are going for light cream tiles then a dark tile along side that will be too harsh. Do you not want to have a complete light and neutral look?

It really is difficult as it's all about personal taste. Try the following website which is a bathroom design and installation company. I think they are very, very expensive but I love their designs and want to copy something like this but on a cheaper scale and get my bathroom fitter to achieve the look for me. Hopefully it will give you some inspiration and ideas of where to go from here.

Or if you have a porcelanosa tile store near you worth going there or check out their site for the must have and to die for tiles (again very pricy) but see what you like then go and seach for cheaper alternatives.

Hope that helps in some way.
