Tiles for tiny downstairs loo

6 replies

Does anyone have any great ideas for tiling a tiny downstairs loo? It’s under the stairs and has no window. I feel as though I’ve looked at a million tiles and Houzz photos and I’m not sure what to do.

I like these but worry they would look too dark lily pad tiles

And my other thought was to half tile with something white and wallpaper the top half with something bold. But I don’t think I like that look!

Not sure that those would be great in a small cloakroom. I would be careful with anything to bold in a small under stairs windowless toilet. It could easily feel claustrophobic or cross eyed! But it it is of course all personal taste, so go with what you like.
I'm having a toilet put under my stairs also. It too is windowless and tiny. I'm having these for half wall and splash back and painting the rest something light also.

Thanks both

esther I saw those tiles (I think I've seen all the tiles!) and they're lovely.

MsMama I've thought about paneling but I'm never sure how it is constructed. I think I do like the half and half look whether it's tiles at the bottom or paneling. I'm wondering whether I could do this and have the lily pad tiles at the top.

I forgot to say that I've found these, which I love:

claybrook textile tiles

How would they look above white tiles/paneling or by themselves for the full height?

You can get panelling from Howdens, which is suitable for bathrooms/Toilets, my downstairs loo is half panelled with wallpaper on the top half.

LOVE the textile tiles. I'd use them full height x
