How best to Tile a room?

[mp3wizard]

Underneath the board is new joists, and 100mm insulation foam,

Yes i believe that board does go along to the wall, It's an idea, but I'd like to keep the floor as level as possible, with an already hard task I'd like to try and keep it as straight forward as possible, it might not come as far up as the red line, I'm just guestimating atm.

You are going to need at the least 20mm from floor,6mm boards, ufh matt, slc then tile .
If you ain't bought the tiles you can get some porcalthin tiles off @Ray TT @ Porcel-Thin .
How thick is the bead ? You may be able to just get away with it .
You can also flag outside up to the same ish height.
Me and @Andystiletiling did one, tiled it flush with the doors. So when the dots fully opened the outside became one with the inside 🙂

I've just swept and cleaned entire floor space with a wet sponge, once it's dry can I put the heat resistant primer down? even if I don't get round to putting down adhesive/insulation mats today?

As long as it's not going to be trafficked too much you should be fine. If it's going to have dusty boots all over it it'll be a waste of time. Personally I always try to prime day before I start.

I'd definitely be looking at sloping your last row of tiles down to be flush with bifold rail as Paul suggested, just leave your ufh and SLC back a foot or so, it'll look miles better from outside than a big trim or whatever your planning when the doors are open.
Did this one this year and its quite a bit more of a slope than your looking at but sometimes its a case of make do with what you have to work with and find solutions..

Builders house... he designed it and built it before he decided he'd like wet ufh, not ideal but it worked out ok
