Laying ten large tiles is much easier because you only must do a little measuring and placing. Smaller tiles, on the other hand, require you to repeat the same process over and over for a considerable amount of time. Bigger tiles only require leveling of the four sides, which may quickly multiply to 24 or 32 sides.
There are no restrictions for interior walls, but some suggest that maximum weight should not exceed 15 lbs. per square foot. Larger and heavier tiles will require anchoring with mechanical fasteners.
In open spaces, large format tiles give the eyes relief from distracting grout lines, making the room look bigger. The visual interruption is reduced with fewer grout joints and creates a more cohesive look. Keep in mind that when large format tiles are used horizontally, they create the illusion of wider space.
