vertical brickbond

[charlie1]

Opinions please. Tiling shower enclosure walls, approx 900 x 900 tray. I'm using 300 x 600 polished porcelain on portrait view. So there will be 3 courses of tile on each wall. Would you flow the brick effect round the corner or isolate it on each wall....bear in mind it will only be 3 rows of tile on each wall, I'm thinking it will look more balenced if I isolate so the 2 tiles in the corner will be level with each other? .....thanks

I normally show the customer both options and let them decide however if I had to make the choice I would stagger it at the corners

I would follow pattern.... would look odd other wise.

I'v done a couple of these this year, and you do really need to follow the pattern around the corners.

summat like that with full tiles.

If the tiles/shower tray were a different size and you had cuts into the corner then I would wrap them round like you suggest.

Here you go, If the tiles are full, then stagger the next wall, if a half tile, line them up
