Retro bathroom floor ideas

We've just had a new bathroom put in and we're looking for flooring for it. We're interested in vinyl flooring, but can't find the kind of design we want - something with a 1930s vintage feel to it, geometric designs, colours, that kind of thing. Does anyone know of somewhere that does funky, retro flooring? Thanks. :)

Solid colours are relatively easy to get hold of. You can get some funky vinyl tiles online, but very important to get samples. Harvey Maria tiles are heavy duty (expensive) and feel lovely, but the french ones you see around a lot (in design blogs mostly) are very thin and don't feel like they will last or be robust.

I rather liked this one in person at carpet right

Felt thick and durable, although we went with black and white tiles to create our own pattern in the end.

then there's the (probably) much more expensive option of people like this

30s bathrooms look nice with black and white tiles I think.

MummytoMog, I actually ordered a sample of that exact design from Carpetright, but the sample was so tiny it was hard to tell what it would look like! I've been eying up those Murafloor ones too, they do some gorgeous designs.
