Kitchen/Hallway not straight

[heathmount]

Hi
I'm not sure how to layout my flooring due to some wonky walls. Hopefully the diagram explains the situation. My kitchen (A) is nice and straight. Area B is an extension and is a hallway to the back door. The whole area is being tiled with the same 30x30 tiles. I've exaggerated the drawing but the hallway walls aren't straight. If I set out my kitchen correctly then my nice straight parallel grout lines are going to disappear into the wall.
The previous owners tiled each area at a differnent angle so each individual area looked straight but the grout lines didn't match up and it looked pretty rubbish.
I'm not sure how to approach this - any ideas welcome. The hallway is about 3m long and I'll probably lose about half a tile width by the time I reach the back.
cheers

hi only a suggestion you could lay kitchen floor strait and the hallway on the 45 this would help if done right maybe a half tile border around the 45 the main point at doorway to kitchen will need thought to help hide prob hope this helps:8:

This is an awkward one as what ever room you set out square the other one is going to be on the scew. you could tile them individually and put a threshold in the doorway to give it a prominent break between the two. or tile one room in different tiles. or if useing the same tiles do one in square and the other on 45s

it would be best to get the room right that is the main focus area. and it would be good to lay aload out dry different ways to see which is most pleasing to the eye. good luck with this one.

as Jay and Peckers above, if you try and tie the entire area, you'll get a neck strain 'cos you'll be walking with a list

If you dont want a threshold between the rooms you will not be able to set out so that the hall grout lines meet at the doorway as you will have to cut the hall tiles at an angle which will throw the grout lines out, this will also emphasise the the fact that the hall and kitcen are at odds with each other

even if you tile at 45% you will still struggle where the rooms meet

I would follow Jays advice and border the floors with straight tiles and have two 45% panels in the centres of each room, the borders become less significant as the eye is drawn away to the centre panels

 

[Time's Ran Out]

We encountered the same problem with this job - the hallway opened out by 600mm towards the back and the walls ran at angles!
I'd go with Jay/peckers - the straight bond in the kitchen, putting a reduced frame around the hallway and 45degree feature panel in the middle. By keeping the same tile in both areas it will flow ok and the extra detail in the long hall area will cut out just straight lines as you come in the front door.
