Not big on the busy strip.

I like it. But then I don't clean the shower, unless my wife makes me. LOL

I don't mide the approach, but don't like the specific accent tile -- too busy and irregular, with no particular point of appeal.

Yes! i Like it! very much!

If I were looking at the house to purchase, I wouldn't like the strip. (I would also want deeper corner holders for shampoo, etc., just FYI). ;)

Hi---it's ok... :) The field tile is a bit too dark for my liking. Here's one of my favorite baths. It has a lovely mosaic, paired with a white contemporary floor tile, and a whimsical light fixture. Makes me smile...

Like the contrast and tile/grout combination. The smaller tile inlay might work in either vertical segments or a horizontal band above fixtures (water line). Sometimes even a contrasting split tile inlay below the water line works to tie the color in but still remain easy to maintain. I do like the overall color palette though.

For me it's not bad, but I would change grout color to darker, to blend the main tile, I think it will look less busy and decorative strip will stand out.

Grout lines are too large and sort of featured. I don't like the eye drawn to the grout, for me the grout should disappear and you should feature the tile. The small tile is too busy and poorly located.

It's not bad. It's something I could live with, but I wouldn't be in love with it. The corner shelves look small compared to the scale and don't appear to be too functional. Not wild about the color, but only because I prefer something lighter, as in the photo below.

To me, this looks heavy and dated, but, it is neutral and in good shape, so depending on your budget, you could try to work with it. Maybe a pretty yellow next to it would brighten it up. But, if the budget is there to take it out, I don't really like it, and tile is so much fun.

I like the large-format tile - anything that requires less grout is good - but would prefer them to be placed horizontally. Would also prefer a lighter neutral color. And definitely jettison that accent strip too.

Field tile looks dated. Strip is OK.

The strip of tile is getting 'old'. Although the mosaic used is a beautiful one. I prefer it be used as a panel or on an entire wall.

Personally - it doesn't blend at all - but if that's what your client wanted, then so be it.

The large tile is similar to what we chose but our accent is less busy. We like it ...

Not a fan of the tile transition. I like the large tile though

if I had the $$$, I'd rip out the builder's grade tub and surround and make it a beautifully tiled walk in shower with glass doors.
