Yes, I've been on a tile kick because I was bored with most of what I had and/or I was frustrated that a floor had no matching wall or vice versa. So, I deleted much of what I had. I'm now working on making a whole mess of replacements for myself, so you benefit, too.
Since I tend to like earthy, natural-looking stuff, I decided that I wanted a higher-end but sort of rustic/primitive-looking mix-and-match set in tan/brown shades that would serve multiple purposes. So, I made one, and I went completely overboard, resulting in a 60-piece set involving textured antiqued bronze tiles and deco pieces, a rough ornate tan travertine tile, and plaster in three shades that coordinate with the travertine.
There are 36 different walls and 24 different floors, so there are nigh-infinite possibilities here. Some of the pieces of the set work equally well for kitchens or bathrooms, and the tile floors will work well for entryways and perhaps outdoors as well. They might work in other areas, too, depending on your imagination and the style of house that you're building.
In any case, attached below are six labeled pics that show each wall and floor, but I think you get a much better idea of what these can really do when shown in an actual room. So here is just one possible combination, using several different walls and floors and my trusty bathroom set:
There is a collection file included in the download for all 60 pieces, to make finding them easier when you want to use them. Also, the individual package files have all been compressed so that they are as small in file size as possible. Please note that you will find all of these pieces in the Tile subsection of either the wall coverings or floor coverings section of the Build Mode catalog, even the three plain plaster walls. This is just to keep things sort of together, if you don't use the collection file.
As always, I hope that that you might find these useful in your own building projects.
