I have yet to even show pics of the new digs. BUT before I get in the back log, I have to make a decision on the bathroom floors ASAP. They are horrid. The laminate is stained, and there is carpet and laminate in the 'Master' bath area, very mullet esque. Before I start- every wall in our house is this horrible yellow/beige/tan. Our neighbors confirmed it- in the late 2000s our house was a rental and thus, our walls are as bland as bland to be. Painting and colors to come soon, but before then-- bathroom floors!!
Here's the Hall bath with the 1980s acrylic sink area and bath/shower surround which is pink/tan:
Can you see the yellow stains in the picture above?
The wall colors will be a blue to contrast with the acrylic - and of course I can't find my inspiration image for you. But trust me- it's good.
Here's what we are thinking for the floors, white hexagon 'penny' tile:
Good?
Question 1: Black or dark gray grout??
Here's the Master with the carpet in the front and laminate in the back:
Here's a closer look at the somewhat awful tile that I am learning to come to terms with:
Good news- the tile in the master is tan with specs of Gray, sooo my goal is to go with a gray paint with blue undertones rather than the blah yellow/tan.
So here's Question #2.
In the master: do we go big with carerra marble hexagon tiles (at twice the cost):
Or just go with the white hexagon penny tile with gray grout:
Since it is such a small area- I kinda want to splurge. What do you think? I know it's hard without paint colors.
Let me know!! More pics coming soon.

I adore those hexagon tiles! If you can afford it, I'd totally go with marble. There's just something about it that makes me oh so happy!
Are you installing the tile yourself? Speaking from experience, the marble tile is much harder to cut... but it looks awesome when it's finished! Just make sure to find a good sealer when it's finished. I'd go with gray grout rather than black so your eye focuses on the tiles instead of the super dark grout!
