netzplanHello everyone,
We are currently selecting our floor and wall tiles. At first, I thought we would only fully tile the shower area / shower niche on the walls.
I was planning to just plaster the toilet area and the washbasin to make it feel a bit more homey, even though the bathroom isnât really a place where you spend much time sitting :-)
1. What do you think about this? Would that be too daring? Would it be better to have the toilet and washbasin areas tiled as well, about 1m or 1.2m (3.3 ft or 4 ft) high?
2. If we do tile the toilet and washbasin areas, should we also tile the side wall of the toilet area? Please see the sketch.

We tiled all splash areas on the wall.
Stains on wallpaper eventually wonât come off.
Some (guests) stand while urinating, you sometimes wash dirty garden hands, or pour a bucket of dirty water into the toilet. I donât even want to think about a clog and the messy cleanup that would follow.

Are there children living in the household? If so, I would definitely advise against wallpaper near the sink extending up to the next towel rack. Unfortunately, we donât have that, so the expensive wallpaper, chosen by the housekeeper, has gotten quite stained from wet, soapy, partially clean hands.
Tadelakt is supposed to be good, but I havenât seen a seamless bathroom without cracks yet.

Thanks to both of you. I will tile those areas as well, behind the toilet and the washbasin. I would initially leave out the side wall of the toilet.
How high are partial-height tiles usually installed? Is there a general standard so that it harmonizes well with the washbasin and a mirror or mirrored cabinet?

What is the usual height for half-height tiling?As you prefer, the specified sanitary fixtures, or door and window openings, provide the guidelines for the room.

the specified sanitary fixtures We are planning to use wall-mounted faucets. I would need to double-check the measurements. If I remember correctly, they were installed at a height of about 1 meter (3 feet 3 inches). We would probably set the washbasin height at around 85 cm (33 inches).
So, if I let the tile extend 30 cm (12 inches) beyond the washbasin, the wall-mounted faucet would be roughly centered on the extended tile :-)
