Floors
Penny tiles are popular to cover bathrooms floors as they are not too bold and can be easily paired with many other tile types that you may want to use on the walls. If you want, you can of course, continue with the same tiles on the walls, too, as penny tiles look very nice even when the whole space is clad with them – other tiles won’t! Want an outstanding look? Then make your tiles bolder with contrasting grout.
