Preparing the structures
We formed the shower geometry and clad the planned structures with plasterboard to create a substrate for the subsequent layers.
Large-format wall cladding, a shower tray and 200×200 mm floor tiles.
Calm, light-coloured wall cladding paired with a contrasting floor pattern.
Shower tray surface and linear drain.
Neat junction between the bathroom floor and shower threshold.
Large-format tile layout inside the shower tray.
Prepared connection points in the tiled shower wall.
The 200 × 200 mm tiles form a continuous black-and-white pattern.
Dark joints reinforce the floor's graphic pattern and emphasise the layout module.
Sealed junction between the floor and tiled wall.

Tiled shower with a graphic floor
A shower area with large-format 600 × 1200 mm wall tiles and 200 × 200 mm floor tiles: from structural preparation and waterproofing to joints and junctions.
Materials and details
Formats and practical solutions used in this shower. Carefully selected elements create a coherent space.
600 × 1200 mm tiles were used on the walls and in the shower area.
200 × 200 mm black-and-white patterned tiles were used on the bathroom floor.
After tiling, we grouted the joints and sealed wet-area junctions.
Provision for a leak sensor was made before tiling was completed.
Work progress
Systematic wet-area preparation, tiling in two formats and careful completion of every detail.
Shower tray and waterproofing
We built the shower tray, prepared the fall towards the linear drain and waterproofed the wet area.
600 × 1200 mm wall tiles
We laid 600×1200 mm tiles on the walls and inside the shower, aligning joints with corners, connection points and structural edges.
Graphic tiled floor
The 200 × 200 mm tiles were arranged in a continuous pattern, preserving a coherent black-and-white design across the floor.
Joints and junctions
After tiling, we grouted and sealed junctions, corners and transitions between the tray, floor and walls.
Key considerations
Layout
Large-format wall tiles and the 200 × 200 mm floor module needed one carefully coordinated layout.
Sealing
In a wet area, waterproofing must remain continuous and outlets, corners and junctions must be sealed.
Geometry
We coordinated the shower tray geometry with the linear drain, threshold and required slope.
