Tile Appointment

Today we were back to Hopetoun Interiors for our tile appointment. We were dreading it a bit, because we didn't feel confident in the range that we were offered (through National Tiles) However, with help from our consultant Priscilla, we picked out tiles for the floor, bathroom, powder rooms, ensuite, balconies, feature tiles and the kitchen splashback.  There was a lot to think about, like the size and shape of the tiles, the orientation that they will be layed and of course the all important grout colour.. (You know how much I love good looking grout!)  When we left the showroom we felt great - really happy with all our choices - pretty much everything is done now, we are ready to sign the final contract and submit the plans to council!

Here are a few of our choices, it's actually really hard to take good photos of tiles, the colours never come out quite as nice as they are in real life..but you get the general idea

Rear and Front balcony tiles,
and possibly the front outside entrance
Portifino Basalt External 400x400
