Do you use the same tile for floor and walls?
Yes, we have that in the apartment as well and we like it. However, we chose lighter tiles.
At first, I wanted to create accents with vintage tiles, but then I feared I would quickly get tired of them. Textured tiles are out for me for the same reason + maintenance effort.
A friend has beige tiles with grooves, which look a bit like wood. It looks great, but since she also has them in the shower, lime scale and dust unfortunately stick in there. I already have no time for anything, so I definitely don’t want to be cleaning tiles ;-)
