Hello,
It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.
I'll start right away.
For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

I prefer it to be easier to clean rather than very rustic.You can still clean it – what you can’t remove remains authentic! 😉M

I can highly recommend dark (anthracite) floor tiles in the bathroom combined with light wall tiles (we have light gray). It just looks stylish and timeless. For a narrow bathroom, I also prefer laying the tiles horizontally and recommend tiling up to about 1.2m (4 feet) high, except in the shower area. In my opinion, this looks more modern when only partial tiling is done. But of course, it’s all a matter of personal taste. Very small bathrooms can actually feel even smaller with this approach… whether dark floors will still look timeless in 20 years remains to be seen. Trends change quickly.
