Planning the wall

What Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile works out to on your wall, from its own published size.

Size (inches)Pieces per 10 sq ftGrout line per sq ft
2×61208 ft

Arithmetic on the published size; a straight grid layout. Herringbone and other patterns cut more pieces.

At 2×6, Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile puts about 120 pieces on every 10 square feet of wall and about 8 feet of grout line on every square foot.

Counts are before cuts — outlets, window returns and the ends of a run all take pieces. The install itself, from wall prep to caulk, is on our backsplash installation page.

Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile or Champagne Bevel Subway 2x6x8mm?

Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile and Champagne Bevel Subway 2x6x8mm are easy to confuse on a sample board: they share the same material, collection, style, certifications, size and finish. What separates them:

  • Measured off each swatch, Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile reads #787874 (mid, essentially neutral) and Champagne Bevel Subway 2x6x8mm reads #7A7B72 (mid, near-neutral), so Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile sits about as light as Champagne Bevel Subway 2x6x8mm on the wall.

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.

12 pieces per sheet

The pieces ship already mounted, 12 to a sheet. That is the only practical way to keep a module this small aligned over any distance. Plan the wall around the switch plates first: a sheet cut through its middle is visible in a way a cut tile is not.

Certifications

Its certifications are Greenguard Gold · USGBC/LEED. Gold means it was tested to the tighter emissions limits, not the baseline ones. That also makes it LEED-eligible where that matters.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Metallic Gray Bevel Subway Tile itself, not from its name.

Measured, not guessed: #787874, mid and essentially neutral. The nearest color we hold pairings for is Slate Blue. Close enough to neutral that the cabinets get to make the decisions; this will follow them.

Cabinets

  • Warm White / Ivory — A slate-blue island in a warm-white kitchen is the safest color move in the book — enough character to anchor the room, never enough to scare a future buyer.. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes classic

Flooring

  • Ash Blond Wood — Pale straw-blond ash underfoot takes the chill off slate-blue cabinetry, landing the room Scandinavian-coastal instead of cold.. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid
