How to choose the right tile size

Bigger tiles mean fewer grout lines and a calmer room. But size should follow the room, not the trend.

Start with the room

In small bathrooms, a large tile can make the space feel bigger, because the eye sees fewer lines. In a shower, smaller tiles help the floor slope to the drain.

Bathroom wallsClean and easy to wipe600 × 1200 mm

Mind the finish

Polished tiles look lovely on walls and in living rooms. On wet floors, choose matt or anti-skid.

Buy one room's tiles in one order, so every box comes from the same shade batch.
