      @@adapa22 Not a master. I told them to not allow this guy to do this "tiling". It's horror. The cabin walls are horrible. Uneven gaps, tiles sticking out left and right, cuts had to be longer and longer on the sides because of this. The floor? Have you guys seen a proper floor? What he is doing is proper lazy, unprofessional work. The guy doesn't care about gaps, level or anything. That's why he doesn't use proper tools. I literally don't understand how can anything be ok with a bad work. If you take your time and look at how the shower cabin's walls look like.. At 7:51 tiles sticking out, uneven gaps.. Seriously..

    The floor looks amazing! The tiler is a total pro... as is the painter. What I love about France is that they encourage and train people in the different trades. My brother in law is a painter in France, his son--my nephew--is a boulanger, and my husband was a chef. They actively keep these arts alive by training their people at an early age, as they recognize the value these trades ad to society.

    I am with Anna in loving the matte look over the glossy. The matte feels very classic. I wonder if you could get a riser to fit under the door that matches the tile. We have them in a few places where the floor is thicker and it helps with the tripping dangers of an abrupt transition.

      I agree that a matte finish would be more aesthetically pleasing and more period correct. With a gloss finish, it would scream 1980’s or 1990’s. (Had to add the 19 because of the age of the chateau. lol)

    What a wonderful looking floor. Timeless in it's simple design.
    The tiler is truly a craftsman. Closest I ever got to someone with his skill was years ago while working at a church, I watched a friends father, who was a stone cutter, put in a new alter area for the church. Watching this tiler cut, then dry fit all the pieces before laying them, reminded me of the same process the stone cutter used.
    Marvelous work and result.

  • @Rosh_ie
    @Rosh_ie Місяць тому +5

    I've seen a rise in this type of tiling design recently. But this one is fitting for the chateau. I found it interesting that you wanted to break up the space so the rooms look separate from each other. Here in the US, with the symmetrical door placement, most people would opt to try to make one room flow into the other to feel like one cohesive design when you open both doors. I think the design walkthroughs that some of the viewers mocked up for you emulated that. I love that you choose a tile to preserve the historical aspect of the chateau though. Im sure this will be a beautiful suite when its all done. I'm excited to see the other elements. This was fun to watch!

    I think it's safe to say...the word hate never comes to mind with any decor choices you've made. The pro did a beautiful job.

    As someone who has a black white tiled bathroom floor like yours I have to say I absolutely love it….great choice. It’s a timeless floor. It will never date.

    I LOVE the look. I hate it when people renovate an old property and forget the design ethics of the house’s era! Well done!

    Timeless. It will all be so beautiful when completed: elegant and modern with real nods to its historic period. I love it.

    I love the tile on the floor and the shower wall. It is perfect for your beautiful chateau.
