I agree.  Tumbled brown travertine.  Big big yawn.[/quote]
The brown travertine hides the tumblepubes better than the white subway tile though.[/quote]

I'd rather not have pubes hidden in my bathroom.

Once you make it to the middle class, you have time to spray down your shower walls before entering or money to hire someone else to remove the 'tumblepubes'[/quote]

Totally!  The travertine looks dirty to me- with or without the pubes.  I think what OP chose is about as classic as you can get.  I'm sure some element of it will be dated but it won't be as awful as the builder-grade crap being used now.

In our reno, we did Carrara marble hexes on the floor & white subway tiles on the walls.  I love it.  The floors don't look dirty bc they aren't.  [/quote]

Shocking, you like the bathroom that is exactly like yours.

[b]On a different note when did subway tile become considered high end, I thought it was inexpensive. [/b] We are looking right now and whether because of price or trendiness, it is common in flips.[/quote]

Not necessarily.  As with any design material, there are cheaper and more expensive options.  Hand-made subway tile like this is very expensive:
