Layla, you are the best! Wish you worked in the US. We are wrapping up the backsplash today and I was wondering - what color grout did you use? Is it a bright white?

    Thanks so much! My name is actually Lyla though. Your kitchen is looking great! Love the Morrocan style tile! Yes, we used bright white grout on the backsplash.

    I'm sorry! What a dope - It's such a pretty name too. Can't believe I misspelled.

    Your design was such a huge inspiration and you have been so kind as to share your secrets. It's tough to find a good designer and you are top notch. I'll send you a picture when it's all done.

    @tykim - I found the Moroccan tiles at The Tile Shop in Sharonville Ohio. I don't have the price anymore but it wasn't cheap. It was only used in a small space though. Hope that helps!

    Oops, sorry. I guess I addressed my question to the wrong person. . Thanks for such a quick answer! Currently building and trying to decide on a quartz. Love this look.

    Hi Kori S! Thank you for interest in our designs! The quartz countertop that we used for this project is no longer available. However, Caesarstone Cement TM3040 is very similar to the countertop that we used. Hope that helps!

    I did see that you have posted about"cement" before. I actually checked into it with Caesarstone, and unfortunately it is not available in the US unless it is a large commercial job. I'm so disappointed.

    What grout color did you use on this one? I'm doing a silver/gray marble subway tile in my kitchen backsplash and I don't know if I should do a white grout to match my white cabinets and river white granite or should it be grayish to match my subway tiles?

    I asked the same question & Lyla used white grout. Based on her expertise I did the same and very pleased with the result. White grout looks better with my white cabinets.

    Thanks for your quick response! I was thinking of the same thing but my silver marble doesn't have the white background that your Carrara has so I'm worried the white grout might bring the more beigey tones instead of the white and grey tones that this type of marble has. So confused! But the white grout dies march my cabinets and granite! I just want a light and airy kitchen like this! Do you have a photo of your kitchen?
