It’s a small downstairs shower room so what are the options for this encaustic design.
This is how I saw these tiles today, all laid out on the front room floor with 3 interlocking.
Not had any contact with the client (it’s through a builder I’ve work with for a few years) but need to know the alternatives before I give them my experienced input!
Any pictures I could show them of your work would help.

Difficult to explain. There are quite a few options with these. Slightly different to the ca’pietra lily pad that I fit but same principle. There are two star variants. There’s a floral design and a floral that alternates the pattern on each row.

Might be better to post the room they are going in too. Also I would decide on the layout and cut out a template of three tiles joined if you go for the star layout.

Might have to try to explain things better a bit later.
 
These are the two ‘star’ designs

First one has straight rows running away from you.

This one has rows from side to side. You basically invert The star to achieve this:-

Triangle if you had a plain tile:-

Floral with each row alternating:-

Straight up floral:-

And this one, triangle with no plain tile:-

I prefer the top one. I’ve not done any of the tiles you have posted only these Lily Pad. They’ve been done with the top layout.
