Loved the broody 1970's music when Philip was bring out the mega-mulcher.
The gentleman who laid the tiles did a fantastic job! The result looks wonderful.
This Master tile layer is cutting marble diagonals by hand. Magnificent to watch.

@@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..

This is a timelessly, elegant look. Good choice.
I find it incredible, comforting and beautiful that in this day and age some things are still better down by a person working with their hands, kneeling down no less. Cheers to that gorgeous bathroom and Monsieur tiler.
This gentleman is truly a master of his craft. I once dated someone back in the 1980s who specialized in cutting granite for commercial buildings, and let me tell you, it's a skill that takes years to truly master.

And granite is much harder to work with. It registers ~ 6-7 on the Mohs scale; while marble ~ 3.
Fabulously traditional and chic! I love marbled floors in that diamond pattern. It never ages.

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.
The perfectionism of this tiler is admirable.
I absolutely loved the music you used in this week’s video, I just felt that it needed to be said. Everyone is likely to comment on those beautiful tiles and of course, the skill of the guy who laid them, but the music you used really made it for me. Thank you for using it.

I am with Anna in loving the matte look over the glossy. The matte feels very classic. I wonder if you could get a riser to fit under the door that matches the tile. We have them in a few places where the floor is thicker and it helps with the tripping dangers of an abrupt transition.

I agree that a matte finish would be more aesthetically pleasing and more period correct. With a gloss finish, it would scream 1980’s or 1990’s. (Had to add the 19 because of the age of the chateau. lol)

That ad was cute. A clever way to seamlessly transition to some promo. Tiles are brilliant.
I have watched YTs who decorate in beige and browns and greys or really dark colors and it always depresses me. I love your choices as I feel they are light and bright and happy and the tile choice is wonderful. 🥰❤👍
Best commercial ever! 😂 🙌🏻
The tiles are magnificent. The man who laid the tiles did a phenomenal job. Very Parisian. Your bedroom suite is going to be hard to leave in the morning, but a joy to return to at night. xx
I think the bathroom tiles are beautiful ,really looks great ....😊
Absolutely beautiful and timeless tiles. Classic choice that will beautiful in 100 years. Bravo 👏🏼
The bathroom floor is beyond amazing, and Anna you're right, it does look like it's been there before. The shower is gorgeous too! So much work laying down a tile floor. Now I have a better appreciation for all of the work that goes into it. Will you have an unveiling when all three rooms are completed?
Bravo, Anna and Phillip! The tiles look absolutely sumptuous. What a splendid decision.
Love, love, love the tiles in the bathroom - the shower walls, shower floor and floor all different but totally in sync. Perfect.
My family owned a Tile Company that my grandfather started in the 1950s. Several generations of the men in my family have been tile setters. Brothers, cousins, uncles. It’s great watching such a talented person install such artwork!!

Tile is beautiful! Ziggy is really growing!
All my life, I'm 73 I wanted to live in a house with the black and white tiles, we had them when I was a small child in England in a very old house, they are timeless and beautiful.
Glad you got the professional in and didn't let Philip have a go. The floor is lovely
Thank you, Philipp, for using the botanical name to identify your plants. It's the only real way to let people know what you have - common names very too widely, even within one country. And it's so true, Cornus alba siberica is gorgeous in the fall and winter!!!
I love it. While I love the shower tiles, I'm glad that I'm not the person cleaning it. All that grout is a ton of work. It's so beautiful. I especially love the floor tile and pattern. Great job.
As someone who has a black white tiled bathroom floor like yours I have to say I absolutely love it….great choice. It’s a timeless floor. It will never date.
Did anyone else gasp when they saw the tiles finally?? 🤩 long awaited and gorgeous!

The bathroom floor is such a WOW factor.! Gorgeous!
We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT. Shine magnifys the beautiful MARBLE PATTERN OF THE TILES. MARBLE floor tiles are only beautiful if finished in high GLOSS sealer. Italian villas in Tuscany are finished with a BRILLIANT SHINE and it can only be described as SPECTACULAR. The cost was worth every euro.
Watching a true craftsman work his magic is so satisfying. Well done to your tile installer!
Philip is so gifted in his DIY skills. Anna you are such a good designer and choose the nicest things. It's going to be beautiful.
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!

They could always find rectangular long carpets with black and white diamond squares on them. That might look a little cheesy though (too 60's actually). Perhaps white carpets at either end beyond each doorway ...depending on which way the bathroom doors swing.
The black and white bathroom tile is beautiful and it is a classic look. Good choices.
Love the black & white tile floor! It’s grand! I’m jealous!🩷🇺🇸
Your bathroom tiles are beautiful! Great choice. Anna your face says it all, you can see how happy you are with it! Thank you for sharing. Have a really wonderful week! Lots of love Kathy x 💖
The bathroom is absolutely stunning. The tiles, and their colors, are all the perfect choices.
Love it and the gentleman who did the tile work is truly a craftsman.Beautiful work.
The floor looks amazing..Anna's great taste as always 🥰😃
I LOVE IT!!!!! The floor and the shower are sophisticated elegance, just like you both!!!🥰
The new floor is stunning! Your new bath is going to be so elegant. I’m really looking forward to seeing more as you progress on with this renovation. I can’t wait to see what your final wallpaper looks like!
One of the most entertaining ads😂 and it just felt like their normal banter!
You are so fortunate to have such masterful craftsman coming in to create such beautiful work! Between your tiler and Benoit you are really developing a masterpiece of a suite!
I’m more impressed with the skills of master tradesmen (builders, carpenters, electricians, tile setters, stone masons, woodworkers) than any scholarly Ph D. Craftsman are technical experts and artists, now that’s skill to be admired. ❤ The tile is perfection. Beautiful ❤
I absolutely love the tiled floor. It makes the bathroom into a jewel within the 3 rooms. Beautiful master suite.💕😊
Your bathroom marble is PERFECTION!!
LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!! The master suite is looking amazing.
Phillip you are an inspiration! Because of the amount of work you do and achieve but so calmly!?
Absolutely beautiful. Great choices on the tile, and the gentleman who installed them is a genius...
Absolutely stunning! Classic yet modern at the same time. I think they call that timeless 💜
fantastic floor - superb tiler a real craftsman.
I agree with Anna, the tiles look more fitting when matte, rather than shiny. Great choice 👏🏻🤩 More antique feel
Bathroom floor looks incredible! Very timeless…Anna you have great taste!
Your tile person is definitely an incredible craftsman. Looks nice as you said nice transition from bedroom to bath to dressing room. The suite is really coming together after all the prep work, decisions, etc How lovely !
You could tell the professional laying the tiles was a master craftsman! You two should do more commercial as you were brilliant!
Wonderful seeing a master craftsman at work and the resulting floor is perfect. Like Philipp’s new work pants, cool! Love the bedroom color so much. I’m glad Anna decided to relinquish her wall painting tools so she can devote more time to her creative endeavors. So exciting to see this suite come together!
The bathroom floor is stunning.
Absolutely love the bathroom flooring. It does indeed add character to the room. I love how the entire house has been renovated. 😊
I love it. You guys are so good. And I love Phillip's humor.
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.
Congratulations on the new floor in the bathroom, it lifts the area, so whatever you add will fit. Love it 🥰
Two thumbs up for the bathroom floor. Your tiler is a master craftsman.
The floor is an amazing choice, it puts so much character into the space. Great choice
Your tiler is incredibly talented! Such craftsmanship!!
The tile is magnificent! Absolutely gorgeous.
The marble floor is stunning. Splendid craftmanship. Love.
To think your materials were just in the next village Wow!!!!! Bathroom is Magnifique!!!!!!
It´s already looking gorgeous, and the vanity, mirrors, shower surround etc. haven´t even been put in yet! This is going to look spectacular.
I love it. I know my husband wouldn't like it at all. Can hardly wait to see the vanity and tub in the room. Your tiler did a fantastic job putting it all in.
Both the shower tiles and the marble floor tiles are all absolutely gorgeous, it’s looking fantastic!!!
The most british way of saying Oma. Love it.
I love your idea Anna! Phillip your gardening was nicely done.
The tile in the shower and on the floor is beautiful! Lovely choice on both!
Your chateau is gorgeous and everything you add or restore is beautiful. The en-suite marble floor is stunning! That’s a craftsman who knows his trade! That bathroom will feel, once finished like a dream. Wow!
Hi Anna and Philipp, your Master tile worker has done an exquisite Job!
Love the floor. I have to also note, the music choice for this week's video is spot on.
Loved the play between the avant garde jazz piece and the classical piece during the tile laying sections. Innovative use of music to tell the story. Loved this.
The tiles are perfect and are an ideal choice for your bathroom. A+ rating!
My goodness, it's absolutely stunning!! Excellent choice for that space, Guys!!
You finished the bedroom with the gold paint and wallpaper with curtains up already! It looks completely elegant and beautiful, Anna! Spot on! I just love the house more and more as you finish it. To think it all came out of your own little heads is such a joyful discovery!
Dressing room color is perfect and floor makes the bathroom sing, I’m part of the chateau!
You know, you know... We love it. C'est magnifique.
Love, love, LOVE the tile!
That floor is STUNNING. So excited to see the progress moving along now.
The bathroom tile is magnificent!! You will never get tired of that!!
I love, love, love the bathroom tile, the shower walls, the shower floor, and especially the bathroom floor. The floors are very French. Can’t wait to see the rest of the design.
