    Hi Linda, thanks so much for your interest in our project! The floor tile is Capella Taupe Brick in 2" x 10", porcelain, 3/8" thick tiles. I searched high and low to find a porcelain tile that looked like real brick pavers and this really does look like it for a fraction of the cost of true brick pavers. The key to making it look like real brick, is setting it with 1/2" grout lines to look like brick mortar, otherwise it looks like tile. It comes in loose pieces, so it was fairly easy to set them in a herringbone pattern. We used a light gray grout. I hope this helps! Best of luck with your project!

      This information has helped so much! Thank you Haven Design and Construction!! I too have been searching for tile that looks like real brick. Thank you for being so specific in the details, including the installation trick of using 1/2" grout lines.
