Hello,
I bought a condominium last year that is currently under construction through a developer, and in a few weeks I have the selection appointment. The apartment will be rented out initially.
Attached is the bathroom layout. According to the building specifications, I can choose tiles up to 60 € including VAT (about $65) and roughly 60% of the bathroom wall area may be tiled. Otherwise, I would need to pay an additional fee. However, I’m not sure about the tile size, how high they should be installed, or the tile pattern to use. I would appreciate any advice. Unfortunately, the tile showrooms are all currently closed, so I can’t get any inspiration there.
At the moment, I’m considering dark floor tiles and light (cream/beige) ceramic wall tiles, sized either 30 x 60 cm (12 x 24 inches) or 30 x 90 cm (12 x 36 inches). The tiled area should be about 1.20 m high (4 feet), but the long left wall (4.12 m / 13.5 feet) only needs tiling up to the baseboard height. The shower area should, of course, be tiled up to the ceiling. For the area with the washing machine and dryer, I’m unsure whether it makes sense to tile all the way up. What do you think?
What tile size would you recommend for the walls in this narrow room? Half-bond (staggered) pattern? Third-bond pattern?
What size would be best for the floor tiles? Would it make more sense to lay rectangular floor tiles crosswise in this case, or should they always be aligned parallel to the wall tiles?
The hallway and storage room will also be tiled. Is there anything important I should consider for these areas?
Thanks in advance.
I hope it’s okay to share a plan section here. There is no information about the creator within the plan section.
Regards,
Robert

Great tile. Thanks. The catalog available for download there is excellent. Besides Taupe, I also really like the Ivory color. However, I assume that the developer or the tile supplier they have contracted won't be able to provide me with these tiles.

He always has 2-3 wholesalers he sources from.
