Would the wall tile size 13x26 for the bathtub with shower too big for a small bathroom?
Thank you very much.

| I don't think so. To me, less grout lines = less busy = more visually spacious. |

| I like the larger tile in the rectangle shape. I think it will make the tub area if not the whole bathroom look and feel more open & airy. DS1&2's baths have 9x18 tiles in a brick pattern and they look really nice. To add onto treasure's equation above...less grout lines = less potential for mildew/mold = less/easier cleaning.

| I used 24" x 24" with 0 grout lines! Love it! Easy easy clean up. Looks great! We squeegee after each shower and every once in a while I scrub around the bottom 10" or so with a microfiber to get the film build up off. But no scrubbing grout! At least not where the big tile is concerned. |

| Grout is your enemy. Minimize, or eliminate. Get large tiles , or slabs if you can afford it. |

| We used large format tile in our small bathroom and don't feel they look too big at all. Opens up the space nicely. |

| Love the tiles. The bigger the better, especially in such a light shade. The bathroom I'm about to remodel is set up just like yours. Can't wait to see what you do with the space! Cheryl |
