Evening, hope all is well.

Im Looking for a bit of advice regarding setting out on the window wall. Which ever way I play around with it I seem to have a sliver either at the window or both ends. I've attached a photo of the wall and a diagram with the measurements. It would be nice to know how you guys would tackle it. Tiles are 60cm x 20cm ceramics using 2mm spacers. Thanks in advance.

Might have a solution. If I fit a a dectretive tile at the centre line of window that gives me a 100mm cut either side of the window. Didn't really want to use a decretive tile on that wall but can' really see any other option.

If you put a chrome box trim either side of the decorative centre tile, then you can cut into the box trim with the two field tiles and have the full tile joint running up the window reveals and create bigger cuts.

Thanks for all of your suggestions. I'e come down to two options now. 1 with the decorative tile and cuts just past the window or decorative tile with crome trim and cuts at window reveals (pic2). Which way would you guys go? Anymore suggestions before I make the plunge. I wanna get this right.
