Most common thought to people is that small space needs small tiles. But on the contrary, a bigger tile in a small space will make the bathroom feel bigger and fair in size. Although, the thought of going for this choice is expensive. Bigger tiles are increasingly costly per tile, and they will cost more to lay since their large sizes require two individuals.
Colour
One of the main spots, to begin with, is choosing what colour you need your bathroom to be. Colour can be one of the things you can enjoy and go crazy about, but be sure to choose a colour that fits into your whole interior decorative.
