"Metro" tiles in different situations....

[thetileking]

"metro" tiles or brick bevelled edge tiles... we must have all tiled at least a couple of these . In my opinion it makes for a great design in any situation. And with more and more colours being available it looks like its a trend thats here to stay.

Questions...

How many have you tiled???
Do you like the look???
Is this trend going to fade out???

some of mine....

Love the Sage metro's in the kitchen. Saw these in topps a few weeks ago. I'm considering putting them in my own kitchen.

Yea the sage is definately a winner. I see some maroon/purple ones in tile giant, very nice.

I have lost count of how many times I have tiled kitchens and bathrooms like that. If it is done well it can look fantastic.

No reflection on your tiling Andy but i think they lose all effect when they're not laid brick fashion.

I have tiled lot of these,only black, white and cream though. Personally I think they make a bathroom look like a bit like a subway convenience.


The grey and reds ones do look cool though

We've just finished doing the new toilet block at a famous restoration project in Greenwich with these. No they wont go out of fashion, they are timeless, and you cant argue with that.
Photos will follow at some point when I remember my camera but please no comments about the colour selection, it was not my first choice.
