I am obsessed with tile, especially penny rounds & hex.
Here's the tile we will be using for our house.
Here's the tile we will be using for our house.
DOWNSTAIRS
DEN BATHROOM : white penny round tile. [installed with curved edges]
PATIO : mix & match green tile from Heath for built-in bench.
UPSTAIRS
KITCHEN BACKSPLASH : Black hex tile.
The kitchen will be all white IKEA cabinets. The glossy finish. [we have the non-gloss white IKEA cabinets next door in the rental, and it doesn't hold up as well as a glossy finish would].
For kitchen counters we will either be installing CaeserStone in white (although I hate the lil' flakes). But I just read on Remodelista that CaeserStone is coming out with a New Pure White. Solid! I like!
Or...that black material used in school labs that is pretty much indestructible.
Well, at least we got the kitchen back splash figured out! Black hex + black/gray grout.
From counters to ceiling about 8 ft of tile. Yum!
BATHROOM : Floor : white hex tile, curved at shower pan and curving up on edges against wall [black grout].
Wall wainscotting : Black field tile.
Rest of wall : white 3D subway tile.
Black field tile : this is NOT it, but somewhat similar...
And the 3D subway tile :
It's a small, oddly shaped (square sucks!) bathroom with 11'ft ceilings. So, for a small bathroom, it'll have a lot of tile. The ceiling will be painted Benjamin Moore's Bath & Spa Aura paint in pigeon gray [matte] and so will the chandelier that's stored in the garage. A matte primed look. Not sure about the chandelier, I only kept it because GoodWill wouldn't take it, I feel sorry for it.
We're using the same kitchen trough sink from Kohler, as we used for the "salvaged-post-floating-sink", in the den, but instead of undermounting it to a 100 yr old post, we will class it up and use a veiny white carrera marble slab.
If we're lucky and have some hex tile left, then we'll use that for the front entrance steps.
And that's all I have to say about tile!
