Even the desk spins here, after I rearranged the office 3 times in the meantime … but of course, this is not a gamer office like the one you use ;)

We have another appointment today at the tile company to choose floor tiles, and I feel - how do young people say? - "wildly unprepared."
We still need to plan the guest WC. This time with a shower. Part of me wants to do it with the same tiles as the main bathroom this time. Another part wishes for even more country farmhouse kitsch.
And then there are various other areas that also need to be tiled now. Entrance area to the transition to parquet. Somehow I imagine something like this - I find it incredibly beautiful, especially with the transition to parquet. I would even find it nicest if 1-2 strips of parquet surrounded the tile rug in the entrance area.
Or is the pattern too wild / do you get tired of it?
Then there is possibly the office (?), and the 40m² below the garage which will now also become living space-like, the storage room and the utility room.
I tend to take similar / the same floor tiles everywhere. Is that too boring?

I also find your example for the hallway or entrance area very nice.
For other areas... I am a fan of the same tiles, the same colors. In my case, the living rooms have tiles, the bedroom has a goat hair/new wool carpet, and the balcony has concrete tiles. But everything has an almost identical shade (as much as possible). I like it because, when doors are open or you look from the living room onto the terrace, these identical tones somehow always make the space feel larger and it doesn’t look so confined.

We have another appointment today with the tile company to choose floor tiles, and I feel—how do the young people say it?—"wildly unprepared."
We still have to plan the guest WC. This time with a shower. Part of me wants to do it with the same tiles as the main bathroom. Another part wishes for even more country farmhouse kitsch.
And then there are various other areas that now also need to be tiled. Entrance area to parquet transition. Somehow I imagine something like this—for me it’s incredibly beautiful, especially with the transition to parquet. I would even like it best if 1-2 planks of parquet would line the entrance area around the tile carpet.

Then there is maybe the office (?), and the 40m² below the garage which is now also becoming more like living space, the HAR and the utility room.

Those are questions only you can answer yourself. Let your feeling and your taste guide you.
Those tiles wouldn’t be mine, but I bet 95% of the people here would find my bathroom tiles terrible and my hallway tiles (travertine) way too busy. I love them; especially in the hallway, I don’t want to see every little dust particle right away.
We have the same tiles in the bathroom and guest WC, different ones in the hallway and utility room. But the same parquet everywhere in the living areas.
You only get tiles that are currently fashionable anyway. I wanted it much more Mediterranean in the bathroom, no chance.

That is of course true. Tiles just always overwhelm me so much. I see pictures on Pinterest and can say "I like it" or "I don't like it." I also know the general direction Country / Rustic / Farmhouse / Cottage, very cozy, little modern. But when I stand in the tile studio I see thousands of different patterns and nothing makes sense anymore.

I tend to do it the same way. So for HAR / utility room, basement garage (I still need a name for those spaces) at least choose the same floor tiles, but different from bathroom/toilet. For the bathroom we have chosen a wood-look tile. The rest of the house that is not tiled should get parquet. Accordingly, I then tend to a non-wood decor for the remaining tiled rooms, otherwise there will be too many different wood tones blending into each other, which I don't like so much.

I know, I felt the same way. Especially since you also have to be able to imagine in the tile studio which wall tile matches which floor tile and how the tile looks on a large surface.That's true, of course.
