01

Large tiles can reduce visual noise

Fewer grout lines often make walls feel simpler. Check whether the tile size fits the main wall without thin cuts at corners or around the basin.

02

Small tiles suit curves and wet-room falls

Mosaics and smaller formats can follow shower gradients and add grip. They also create more grout to maintain, so use them where they solve a real problem.

03

Set-out comes before adhesive

Plan full lines from the most visible wall, then check niches, windows and fixtures. Moving the starting line slightly can avoid a row of narrow, weak-looking cuts.

What to remember

Choose the tile after drawing the wall set-out. Room size alone does not give the answer.
