11th hour tile height opinions!
Discussion
I have a tiler coming tomorrow and have had a last minute doubt as to how high my tiles should go!
Tiles are plain white, 30cm x 60cm. Brick pattern, grey grout.
Above tile painted in mid/navy blue tbc.
Originally I was thinking top line, due to splashes from shower. Now I’m thinking bottom line might look better around window?

Thanks all,
It might not be clear on the above photo, but the wall has a curve down towards the window. If I were to go to full ceiling height all round, I’d have to have a curved end tile on bath & mirror walls.. I can’t see this ever looking right.
Thoughts are to drop a tile below that height, leaving one solid area to paint.
All units and tiles are white so I reckon I can get away with a dark ceiling?
If I drop down too far (mid window) id have less tile at the end of the bath the shower will hit, plus a lot more dark paint.
I’ve added a photo showing curve and next two tile lines down.. typically, neither are mid window!
Area above sink etc will be at height of lowest line.
