        "text": "The choice depends on design goals, wall dimensions, tile size, fixtures, and how much visual continuity you want. A horizontal pattern can make a wall feel wider, while a vertical arrangement can draw the eye upward; neither is automatically better.\n\nThe installer should check how the pattern lands at corners, niches, windows, and plumbing penetrations. A pattern that looks good in a sample may create narrow end cuts or misaligned joints across the actual room.\n\nKey factors:\n- Room proportions and ceiling height\n- Tile shape and directional surface pattern\n- Focal wall and fixture locations\n- Grout-joint alignment at corners and openings\n\nReview a measured elevation before ordering directional tile. Elite Remodeling & Design can compare layout options through design development and coordinate the selected pattern with the complete bathroom finish plan.",
