The centerline around the house was laid first to make sure everything would line up. Talk about one big puzzle! This is why we paid a professional tile installer.
And here is the completed floor. Many people that see it think that it's slate. It is actually porcelain, so it is very robust. The tile installer had to break out the heavy duty tile saw just to be able to cut the tiles. Per the recommendation of the folks at "A World of Tile", we went with the pinwheel pattern. This works well with the round house and doesn't cause the railroad track look that the original white tiles that were laid out in straight rows had.
