Hi, we are renovating our bathroom and are undecided on the tile to use in the shower area. We have two half outer walls topped with glass and two full walls. We are using these tiles in the maim area http://www.glasstile.com/default2.aspx? ... intro.html (the last picture has the tiles we are using on the walls behind the tub and behind the toilet) http://www.porcelanosa-usa.com/productd ... s&pageid=5 (these tiles Ruggine Laton are going also behind the tub, toilet and vanity) My husband likes this moche brown 4x8 tiles to use in the shower area with a stripe of stone and glass mosaic. But I prefer a glass subway tile the color of guava or a light burnt orange which matches some of the glass in the mosaic. I am worried of the brown looking too 70's and too dark. Any help will be appreciated.
Let me understand, you both like the mosaic in the shower but you disagree on what to coordinate with it, right? Also, I did not see a sample of what the mosaic looks like. What material is the entire bathroom (and shower) floor? Laton? Imagine alternating both shower walls with one row of Laton, one row of orange glass subway tile, one strip of mosaic and another row of glass subway. Continue alternating this same pattern down both walls. This would give you about 2-3 rows of the combination (roughly). In fact use any combination of these tiles. Would that be enough of a variation to satisfy you both? It's not too dark brown, and not too much of a color splash...in case you decide to sell later you may not want to lock into such a pronounced color as orange. Now, if I had to choose between the two options, I would just live a little and go with your idea... add some pizazz!
