Anyway, when selecting pattern, color etc originally, it was suggested by sales person a large tile pattern in small room looks closed in and to go with smaller tile pattern. Naturally I like to know how it will really look, and am in habit of doing mock-ups to see what it really looks like. I brought home samples with large and small tile patterns and laid enough along one wall or in one area to get a feel for how it would look. I also did not agree with sales person that large doesn't work in small room. I used large tile pattern in small room and it came out beautifully and does not look the least bit smaller. Also our laundry room about same size and it had similar tile pattern and size and it looked good. Personally I think the small tile pattern would look too busy, the open larger look suited my design asthetic better.
