How to start an offset tile pattern?
I am planning on laying down tile in my dining room and kitchen. I recently saw an offset pattern with 12×12 tiles and liked it. I’ve now decided to go with the same offset pattern but with 20×20 ceramic tiles. Would I still have to find the center of the room and start tiling out from the center or can I just start at one wall and go from there since i’ll be using the offset pattern? Thanks in advance.
Not always so with an off set pattern….Because when you start from center on a normal square pattern and you end up w/ a small cut along the wall, you can re center the tile in the room to get a better cut along the wall. Doing this to an off set pattern , won t change that small cut on 1/2 the rows.. It all depends on room lay out and your site lines.. That I can t answer you. Now if you start in the center and do get a good lay out on both sides, then by all means, center the tile..
If you have a long site line on one wall, which is very visible, and cabinets or something different on the opposite wall to break up the pattern, Then you may consider going off that wall w/ a 1/2 tile along that wall.. I m not there to see it but I m good at visual lay outs. Any questions you can e mail me thru my avatar and check my qualifications there GL
