I'm really struggling to know what matches what!
Can you show me pics of your real life nor Insta bathrooms. I have 3.5 to kit out and builder will be ready for tiles very very soon and I just can't work out what goes with what - what walls should be accent walls etc etc thinking some real life current bathrooms with details of online stores for the tiles may help me.

I'm thinking maybe herringbone marble with metro tiles for one bathroom but can't do all over and don't know what to pair it with.

Maybe a white hexagon marble floor in another with grey wall tiles - but think maybe needs something else on wall too???

Cloakroom maybe black floor with teal for something striking

And my en-suite I don't know - something tasteful and elegant but not boring .... 🤯

Please help! Builders are pushing me - thanks so much in advance!!!

Crikey that is a lot of bathrooms to make decisions on. I would go onto Pinterest. I have one small bathroom. I have white wall tiles in walk in shower with mosaic tiles in bluespurples. The tiles go behind the basin and loo and their is a row of about 10cm square tiles to match. Floor tiles are like stone with all the grains and marks. I have since seen it up the walls as well it looked good.

Clockroom. The teal tiles. I have seen teal metro tiles two or three tones these would look amazing half way up and then a very unusual wallpaper. Try wall paper direct something with a bit of teal in it.

Definitely not an Insta-bathroom but this is mine, had it done a couple of months ago.

This is the teal tile for the cloakroom - just not sure what to add to it. I'm thinking putting it just on one wall behind the vanity and then tiling the floor and remainder in all black either all Sam large recatangle tiles or rectangles on wall and hexagons on floors...
That or about half black wall tiles and remained the teal/peacock to ceiling... (black floor again)

Are you in a hard water area. Black floor tiles show limescale. I don’t like the mixture of hexagons and brick tiles in the same room. Why do you want to tile cloakroom to the ceiling?
Look on Pinterest or maybe a few house magazines for inspiration. I have the same tiles in all my bathrooms; made the decision easier - not grey.

I am in a hard water area but will most likely be putting a water softener in...

I can't go for all the same in all bathrooms cos if I choose something I end up not liking then I have four bathrooms I don't like in my house 🤦🏻‍♀️

Finding all the decisions really hard!!!!
