Tiling advice please

Manuel

We've decided to tile our hallway (8' wide) as we're in the country and wooden floors mightn't be the best option due to abuse, stones, etc. The house will have mainly oak/cream tones so can anyone suggest what sort of tiles/colours would look good in the hall, we would like it to look 'warm' but not too bland ...
The stairs in the hall will be red deal, skirting is white deal.

Thanks!

A Plain cream porcelin tile might suit

And a pair of ice skates too if you are putting porcelain tiles in the hallway

Very slippy when wet...

I'm in the process of putting down porcelain tiles in my kitchen but they're rough-set, giving them good grip. I reckon they're a good choice in a hallway as they're very strong and aparrently very hard wearing....

We bought 16" glazed porcelain tiles for kitchen and hall. I suppose they're beige with a kind of "mix" effect in them, i.e. they're not plain.

Anyway, when it comes to laying them, we're a bit undecided about whether to lay them square-on or in a brick effect.

I know it's a personal thing, but all advice welcome. We don't have much open floor space in our tile or kitchen, so the tiler figured square-on would be better, although we had thought that brick effect would look a bit nicer.

Anyway, if you've been through this, we'd appreciate any advice.

Thanks!

I think with the bigger tiles, square on looks more modern..
We are doing kitchen/dining room in 45mm square tiles and have pretty much decided on square.
