And unfortunately, the pictures aren't to scale - I just merrily snapped away in the tile store, not paying much attention to how far from the samples I was standing. I think that the scale of #1 is fine for the hallway and positioning the diamonds with the long dimension running the length of the hallway will visually expand the space.

The smaller scale of your #2 choice might work better for the "area rug" look you are trying to achieve. Do you need to seal marble from salt, water, etc in such a high traffic area? If so, how often?Sandranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199527646020882017.post-36616482873630355912012-12-28T00:10:39.300-05:002012-12-28T00:10:39.300-05:00I think simple geometrics are the most classic I think simple geometrics are the most classic Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199527646020882017.post-6971727988211104982012-12-28T00:09:38.489-05:002012-12-28T00:09:38.489-05:00Is marble durable enough for a high traffic hallwa...Is marble durable enough for a high traffic hallway?
