bepsf No - it's ceramic tile made to look like wood.

Gardner Mohr Architects LLC Thanks for asking! The bath and shower floors are stone, by Buffalo Stone. See http://www.buffalostone.com/stones/library.html, and http://www.buffalostone.com/stones/popup_pgs/teakwood-sandstone.html.

honu1 how do you keep from slipping in shower with one pieces of tile and not much grout?

Gardner Mohr Architects LLC The shower and bathroom floors are composed of many pieces of stone and therefore have grout joints. The stone has a high coefficient of friction, which means it is slip-resistant.

honu1 do you mind me asking what type of stone, that looks like wood and has a high coefficient? i am told you have to have small cuts for shower floor (4x4 or 2x6).. that would take away the look of a wood floor :-) thanks for the speedy reply.

Gardner Mohr Architects LLC The bath and shower floors are stone, by Buffalo Stone. See http://www.buffalostone.com/stones/library.html, and http://www.buffalostone.com/stones/popup_pgs/teakwood-sandstone.html. Check out the link -- its sandstone, sealed with a product such as one made by Prosoco. Review their water repellents, and call a technical rep to discuss what might be appropriate for your particular proposed installation. http://www.prosoco.com/. And re size of the pieces, since the shower is a "mono-slope" towards a linear drain at the end of the shower, the pieces don't need to be so small.

brettalan Love the wood appearance of the shower floors. Feels Zen.
