This example is in a new Radison Blu hotel in Turkey. Therefore, the "finish" quality and tile details are a little less than a traditional home. But the idea is clear and the look of the larger tiles is modern and bold. This was also one of the first hotels we've seen tile completely wrapping the exterior (see last images).
Obviously, the tile did not come from KY Tile Closeouts, but we have a large selection of 30x30 and 24x48 (as pictured here) to choose from.
Next time your tile guy says large tiles won't look good in your small space, remind them that is why they lay tile and not an interior designer.
