Midgley West Boulder Fossil Mosaic Tile 2"x2" - Natural

Pieces this small are what make a shower floor work, and The Boulder Fossil in 2" x 2" is no exception: the mesh follows the fall to the drain instead of fighting it. The natural surface keeps its texture, which is what you want where feet arrive wet. Porcelain absorbs almost no water, which is what lets it go into a shower, a mudroom or a covered porch without any fuss. A box holds 5.81 sq ft, so a 100 sq ft floor works out at 19 boxes once you add the usual ten percent for cuts and the odd broken piece. There is far more grout per square foot here than with a big tile. Pick the grout colour deliberately, because it is half of what you will see. It is on display in Mississauga and Barrie if you want to see a full sheet rather than a photograph.
