I've got a 6.5 x 2.7m kitchen diner to tile next week. Both doors are on the long sides but at opposing corners. The tiles are 290x590mm. I was going to do a straight brickwork pattern but I've seen good results with a third offset, rather than a half, so I may do this.

I am tiling the kitchen prior to the units being fitted, so the whole floor will be tiled.

Taking all this into account, which way would you run the tiles? Along the room, or widthways? It sounds like a small thing but it could have a big impact on such a long room.

Also, with the floor being fresh concrete, should I have to prep it at all, or can i just tile straight onto it with my fast set?
