A wall covered in extra large tiles has a way of looking deliberate rather than decorated, laying one broad, calm surface across a bathroom, kitchen, or utility wall with almost no grout to interrupt it. It is worth knowing that true wall tiles are made from a softer body than floor tiles, so while many floor tiles can be used on walls, the reverse is not the case.
This scale is wonderfully suited to functional wet walls, bathrooms and shower surrounds especially, where a large, low-maintenance surface protects against moisture far better than paint ever could. The reduced number of joints also makes cleaning considerably easier in rooms that see daily splashback. For a feature wall elsewhere in the house, this format brings a similarly calm, considered backdrop, adding lasting personality to a room in a way that paint simply cannot match over time.
