What color is the tile? Monitors make it tough, but what about white?

Yes, monitors and camera make it tough. The background color is more whiteish gray. But the light gray grouts look to silver or bluish while the veining is more taupe. Its called Venato II from Floor and Dacor.

On my monitor, the darker grout is a better match to the veining. But what really matters is what it looks like in real life. No one here can help with that. I would try to find a white that is compatible.

Here is a third lighter color. Complicate my decision more.

@Creative Tile. That looks really nice! I am having almost the same bathroom floor installed. Fun to see done. So is your grout a white?

Oops, I see your colors. I was too busy looking at the pretty picture!

So what did you decide on, lah112056? I am looking at this exact same tile for an alcove bath. I’m considering alabaster, white, frost gray. (Mapei). I’d love to see a photo if you are finished! This looks great in your shower...

I was planning on rectangular white ceramic tiles but hen I saw the Venato II it got my attention!

I went with a very light grout for I wanted a slab effect.

roarah, Thank you. Very light meaning a white? To match the background color? It sounds like I want something close to the white in the tile for the grout to “disappear”...

I used a white matched to the background. I can not remember which one but I can maybe dig it out of the basement. I did it years ago. Here are before grout and after pictures in progress.

Thank you for the pics. The grout matches perfectly. Don’t go dig in your basement! I will look at the choices and pick the one that blends in best. Not too white, but not gray or tan. It looks good that way!

I chose grout that would show up in the walls, but grout to blend on the floors. This is what the realtor, a designer, and a tile consultant at Floor and Decor suggested, and since I’m doing it for resale and not myself, I did what they suggested. They told me 55 and up like it to blend and people in their 30’s-50’s like contrast. I’m sure that’s not true for everyone.

So which one did you go with? Cobblestone, or silver or? I’m at floor and decor now and ripping my hair out over this, lol. I like to see the lines but not too dark

DC I’m not sure if I went with the Cobblestone or the one lighter, but I did not go with the light one to blend. The designer/realtor/remodeler, does it all, who sold our house to the 2nd person to go through it, the first day, for over asking price, said you want to see the grout lines. Scroll up, because I showed the finished projects.

I’m going to use the same tile (Venato II) Can you tell me if you went with the matte or glossy tile?

We have the same tile and are going with Frost grout color.

Just curious, are you happy with the frost grout? Any pics? The designer at floor and decor rec that color…suffering from analysis paralysis lol

@Lisa Do you know what floor tiles you used? I like the dark contrast with your tiles.

@Jessica Seda does the frost grout "disappear" or fairly visible?

@roarah any chance you do have that grout color name?

The frost grout basically disappears and makes it look like a slab. Very happy with that choice as that was the look we were going for

@Karen graham do you have a pic id your shower? doing the same tile and would love to see it with light grout

@lisa I know its been awhile, but do you remember what you used as trim around your niche?
