Too Much Marble In Bathroom

I need advice how much is too much marble in a bathroom.

Too much marble in bathroom.

I see 5 different tile treatments in this bath. I like the idea of a white marble or marble porcelain tiles the other option being a quite safe. Right now i have picked out bianca carrara marble slab polished for vanity tops his and hers dark cabinets carrera white polished tile floor 12x12 shower wall tile is daltile first snow elegance honed 3x6 horizontal brick set and first snow elegance. If you decide to add a color i suggest light or medium tones to avoid too much of an abrupt contrast.

I have a master bathroom that we are redoing the room is approx 100 sq ft. Be sure to use appropriate paint in a scheme like this though as splashes are inevitable. Because marble contains minerals there s always the risk that its iron content will turn to rust in a bathroom. We are in the process of upgrading our small family bathroom to a shower room.

In my all white bath which is actually many shades of white i used a white marble basketweave floor tile with a tiny black dot. A beautiful installation can be ruined when the iron buried deep in the marble discolors from humidity and moisture. Kept the main bath floor tile going into the shower and the square marble tile for a shower walls or. That little dot adds a lively point of reference.

In this attic bathroom the sloping ceiling is high enough to avoid too much of a soaking so tiles only cover the walls.
