im only getting my keys in May so i cant post it yet. if u still want to wait pm me ur email address and i'll post a pic to u once i get the keys.
actually what i felt black tiles is even more difficult to match with wall colours. if not careful enough u might end up making ur place look smaller than it already is.
Not really true. My uncle's place has black marble floor (very beautiful). In his living room, his wall feature and TV console is wood grain laminate with silver laminate panels. I helped him to choose a light pale yellow. Makes the whole house look very big and gives a warm cosy feeling.
Looks very professional.
wooh.. u guys really saved alot of money.. anyway juz like ur uncle's place i also wanted a cosy and spacious look. i was thinking of grey walls with white ceilings. black, grey, white. im not sure if it would turn out disastrous. went to ikea to get some rough ideas. but didnt help much. if only i could have a preview before doing the actual painting..Not really true.

His dining room I picked bright white for him cos his dining table is grey and the hanging ceiling light is silver. Very 'futuristic' look and very minimalist (same as his Zen dining set).
His kitchen is also black tiles and his whole kitchen is red, silver and black. Aluminium counter top instead of the usual solid surface
Bedrooms he change to parquet flooring though. He still prefers wood floors in bedroom
Btw, I helped him picked out the colours cos he wanted to save on ID and we 'DIYed' the place. Got a foreign worker from the construction site nearby to do the painting and the tiles. We bought the tiles from a friend who is a marble floor tile supplier in SG and got a carpenter from Msia to do the carpentry.
really? ok ok. gonna look it up. thanks a lot.
For me, i will have white colour for my wall as it will have more spacious effect and i love black n white color as well.. :001_302:
black tiles are nice but its rather intimidating to have it all over the house, especially if its the whole living area. If u have black tiles all over the house, chances are u need Bright and Sunny colours, there is no worries about wad colours to choose because black is a neutral or non-existent colour, meaning u can match black with anything.
hahaha.. thanks for the tips. yup i have decided on grey with white ceilings. and yes its all black tiles all over the house. having decided on the living room now my next task will be the kitchen which also comes with black tiles. dunno wat colour is suitable or types of cabinet. i know bright colours is ideal but since this is the kitchen where stains and grease might be all over the place i really didnt want them to look so prominent. ive seen my granny's home.. beside the sink area is grown with algae and black stains. and i really dun wish to have a kitchen like that. a neat, easy to clean and non clustered area is what im looking for. was thinking of red. but dunno lehh. never seen a home with black tiles before, so its kinda intimidating to decide on the colours when i dun have a single clue about these things especially with black tiles..
