looks good .
interesting to see how you staggered tiles.
i am not sure there is a correct way but we always go random with minimum overhang to next course of say 200mm on 1000MM TILE making sure that we do not get the step effect.
what you have done looks good and there is neverv a step look more than three courses.
i have always been amazed at how some tilers lay random length stone floors .
just a little bit of thought makes a big difference to overall look .
and we never have a cross joint . whether this is acceptable or not icdont do this in my company. same goes fo no cross joints in random floors

it looks nice mate must of been a mosaic trowel if the floor was flat lol
I used some 1mtr. planks a while ago, 600 sq. mtrs, rectified porcelain.The guy went over to Italy and bought them direct.
They were a nightmare to fit. Almost all of them had had either a twist or lip. You could put a straight edge over them and either daylight in the middle or on the edges.
There was almost no way of getting them dead on. I was tearing my hair out. I had already laid about 200sq. Mtrs when I had to take delivery of some pallets he had in storage, on the wrapping of each pallet was the word "REJECT"
