really nice. also impressed at the randomness of the darker tiles. seems like that's gotta be an art.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

Very nice work. Even though laying tile kills my knees I love the satisfaction I get after the job is completed.

Job well done, trekkor, travertine is amazing rock.

I had a good friend install travertine in a old house and the lippage was bad, you could almost stub your toe. I called another good friend up who has a cleaning co. that builds industrial cleaning machines. He came over and with diamond cutters smoothed that floor to perfection, now you can skate across it.

Well, the typical entry door is 36 " wide. If you look at the various doors in the pics, I'd scale it at 16 x 16.
