Bathroom Floors Inspiration

There have always been ceramic tiles on the floors of the bathrooms where I've lived since my childhood. Even when I've lived in more than 15 homes. We do move around. But what I'm getting at is that there are so many other lovely bathroom flooring I wish I had experienced other types. Here is a selection from my files of bathrooms with different kinds of flooring: from stone to marble, and wood to smooth concrete.
