"The masculine bath can become quite interesting with the use of hexagon-shaped tiles in geometric designs on the floor and up to the chair rail. The combination of pattern and contrast is what makes it all work. Subway tile acts in the same way by creating stripes -- either horizontal or vertical -- in an array of patterns."
