I visited 100% Design in Earls Court, and came across this stand by Apavisa. The tiles they had on display were gorgeous! They’ve really found a beautiful balance between large / bold geometric shapes, and a lovely muted colour palette.

If you’re brave enough, why not bear this in mind when next decorating your bathroom? Sure it’s not for everyone, but with the right decor and some clever accessories to tie it all together, you could really end up with something totally unique. Check out this bathroom – it might just inspire you to play with some monochrome floor tiling…

Alternatively, if you’re not feeling quite so adventurous, how about some subtle texture to spice up an ordinary white floor. Look how elegant this stunning leaf mosaic by New Ravenna is –

If you don’t have the budget (or energy!) to even think about retiling your floor, vinyl flooring is a great option – provided you find a pattern you love! Check out Achica’srange of vinyl floor strips…
