Hi everyone, I am a beginner starting another room at my home here in the US and want to do the French pattern again. Have unfilled unpolished chiseled stone and the tiles are 8x8, 8x16, 16x16 and 16x24. I understand the pattern but when you add the grout line to two 8's it ends up wider than...
We've got a 3 tile size opus pattern we're doing in travertine. The tiles have not been bought as a set, and therefore there's a slight spacing issue. The tile sizes are 610x610, 610x305 and 305x305. Now, they clearly fit together fine with no spacing (assuming they're all perfectly cut to...
