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

Try searching for “long bathroom” on Pinterest
Or/and use Google image search.
You’ll also find matching furniture ideas there right away. I was just looking: I couldn’t decide because there are so many great and unique bathrooms with stylish tiles.
You can either emphasize or downplay the length, whichever you prefer.
Every layout has its own merits. I tried that. But maybe I’m too picky or just can’t find it. I didn’t come across any truly beautiful elongated bathrooms there. Also, in all the pictures, the bathrooms are tiled all the way up to the ceiling. Probably because sellers make more sales when the tiling goes all the way to the top.

I have the final selection appointment coming up this Friday. I’m planning to use 60x30cm (24x12 inches) tiles on the wall in light gray, and similarly sized tiles on the floor in anthracite, laid horizontally.
The bathroom should have a classic and elegant look and appeal to as many people as possible.
Do you think the dark floor tiles will make the bathroom (which is long) appear smaller?
Is this a combination that won’t feel outdated in a few years? The apartment will be rented out.
