    @@adapa22 Not a master. I told them to not allow this guy to do this "tiling". It's horror. The cabin walls are horrible. Uneven gaps, tiles sticking out left and right, cuts had to be longer and longer on the sides because of this. The floor? Have you guys seen a proper floor? What he is doing is proper lazy, unprofessional work. The guy doesn't care about gaps, level or anything. That's why he doesn't use proper tools. I literally don't understand how can anything be ok with a bad work. If you take your time and look at how the shower cabin's walls look like.. At 7:51 tiles sticking out, uneven gaps.. Seriously..

    The floor looks amazing! The tiler is a total pro... as is the painter. What I love about France is that they encourage and train people in the different trades. My brother in law is a painter in France, his son--my nephew--is a boulanger, and my husband was a chef. They actively keep these arts alive by training their people at an early age, as they recognize the value these trades ad to society.

    I've seen a rise in this type of tiling design recently. But this one is fitting for the chateau. I found it interesting that you wanted to break up the space so the rooms look separate from each other. Here in the US, with the symmetrical door placement, most people would opt to try to make one room flow into the other to feel like one cohesive design when you open both doors. I think the design walkthroughs that some of the viewers mocked up for you emulated that. I love that you choose a tile to preserve the historical aspect of the chateau though. Im sure this will be a beautiful suite when its all done. I'm excited to see the other elements. This was fun to watch!

    What a wonderful looking floor. Timeless in it's simple design. The tiler is truly a craftsman. Closest I ever got to someone with his skill was years ago while working at a church, I watched a friends father, who was a stone cutter, put in a new alter area for the church. Watching this tiler cut, then dry fit all the pieces before laying them, reminded me of the same process the stone cutter used. Marvelous work and result.
