tiling pattern of a 300 x 100

[cowgomoo]

Hello everybody, I am about to tile kitchen splashback with a 300 x 100 plain white tile - vitra scala - and the client wants a brick bond style. Would anybody be tempted to lay these of at 100 intervals or just go half way across as per normal. The splash back will only be 4 courses high so maybe it doesn't matter. Any thoughts would be appreciated. David.

hiya,i done a job with these last year on a splashback brick effect,my initial thought was they wouldnt look good in a kithcen as i think they suit a bathroom more but it turned out fine

i will try and load some pics up for you

hiya cant find any pics of this particular job but as above it will look fine....it was the size of tile that put me off initially for a splashback but it did look ok

just go half bond will look fine

thanks for that kilty, the customer decided the tile from a range that I provided and iI think it was the size that attracted her ! A bit " letterboxy " for me but what do I know

yeah half bond will be fine, staggered brick bond might be too much for four coarse and you wont get the full affect of the staggered bond imo.
