Transition between 2 different rooms with the same tiles- help please!

6 years ago

I am working on refreshing areas of a friends house. The entire first floor has this burnt sienna tile. I’d like to separate out the laundry room and bathroom so I’m not held to the tile color when updating the rooms with paint but there’s no good transition strip or line in between rooms so I’m unsure of how to move forward. Little to no budget so I don’t want to tear out tiles and lay others down- ideally I would paint the existing tiles. Thoughts on how to solve?? Thank you!!!

I see no reason to use transitions just the fact they are a different room and their use is different is all you need to choose a different wall color. That tile color will always drive the wall color in each space so maybe just a different shade insted of a completely new color.

Totally agree with above.

Find a color that you want to use and then look at the strip of different shades of that color (lighter, darker) and choose it for the other room. They will be from the same color family and give you a different look.

I would not paint tiles, especially in high moisture high traffic areas. It looks great on Instagram for a very short time, then the peeling will start. Far better off either removing the tile or learning to live with it.
