Hi everyone,
for our house, which will be delivered in March,
we are currently selecting tiles.
I’ve attached the bathroom floor plan.
We would like to have as few grout lines as possible in the walk-in shower. We’re thinking of using large-format porcelain tiles—like the big ones seen in tile specialty stores—at least on the three shower walls and the floor.
Are there any advantages or disadvantages to this? Will the tiler be able to handle this without charging us a fortune for the extra work? And what do you think of the idea in general?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

- Just the delivery alone is very expensive
Conclusion: We chose 120x120 cm (47x47 inches) tiles, which also results in very few grout lines.Great summary of the different points. Maybe to add: large tile formats sometimes break during transport if not handled properly. These were "only" 120x120 cm (47x47 inches) tiles, and it was only with the third delivery from Italy that we received the full quantity as ordered, albeit with a corresponding delay.
But the wait was worth it; the large tiles look fantastic in the stairwell.
