Wait until the thinset has cured before you grout — it usually takes about a day. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and don't clean the tile with anything but water until the grout has fully cured. If the grout is a light color, consider sealing it to make it easier to clean. For dark colors, this is generally not necessary. Remember, even sealed grout will allow some water to pass through — this is why shower pans have liners. This also means that tile needs to be set on cement board, not drywall, anyplace where it will get wet.
Glass tile expands and contracts at a higher rate than other tiles, and is more prone to stress fractures. For this reason, small glass tiles can be installed in many applications, but large-format glass tile should be installed only in areas that have been prepared to avoid movement and won't be subject to large temperature swings.
Not into the whole shell thing? No worries. (Not every beach has shells anyway.) Rope and driftwood are great for punctuating the look without being so obvious. Paintings and other kinds of artwork reminiscent of seascapes will add to the feel of being near water versus being in an urban environment, but many designers will recommend not overdoing the kitsch. “Life preservers push the limits for me, and anchors and sea horses,” says Ggem. “I get it, but I think it’s better to think in terms of natural materials you see at the beach.”

After: Interior designer Lisa Konjicek-Segundo added a floor-to-ceiling picture of a New York City subway station, both for interest and to create the illusion of a larger room. “My clients love New York City, so we decided to make it an ode to the city, with an industrial vibe and photography,” she says. The oversize mirror above the sink also helps to create the illusion of a larger space. Konjicek-Segundo chose black hex tiles to reinforce the subway station theme, and a new recessed niche between wall studs stores excess toilet paper, a dispenser and a magazine rack.

Ratings. There are four or five ratings categories listed on every box of ceramic tile. Five if it’s a glazed tile and four if you’re buying unglazed tile. Any time you’re getting ready to buy tile, be sure to read the label. Look for a given tile’s grade, PEI rating, water absorption, coefficient of friction, frost safety and tone. In this Ideabook, I’m going to go through and discuss each of these categories and why they’re important. Hire an experienced contractor to install your tile
