    I like the backsplash. Not that I would want it in my house.
    I think if I had to tile that shower I would have to check into the Betty Ford clinic when done.
    But don't mind a little color. So much of the work out here is beige. Guess to match the sand on the beach.

    the splashback looks like they bought all the discountinued tiles not my cup of tea.
    Te shower is not to my liking either. ultimatly up to customer.
    i might try the herringbone pattern in my own bathroom but not in such bold colours i'm thinking metro white.
    Get away from the brick bond which seems to be so common place at moment.
