Transistioning tile to tile Help?

Question

We want to put tile in the dinning / living room no problem done floor tile before, our problem is getting a nice transition from the tile that is in the entrance and kitchen to the tile we would be putting down! I love the exsisting tile! but it no longer is anywhere to be found! I went to the builder but they said it's to old the house was bult 12 years ago! and as far as they know the tile not being made any more!

they couldn't even tell me the manufacturer, SO! any suggestions on how to transition from one tile to another, that willl be different! I have no extra tiles to take with me to the store! so have to go on memory! I even tried taking a picture along. the tile that we have has a high gloss shine to it and a bit of a pattern in it!

Hi, we recently encountered the exact same problem when extending our house. We decided to use a stone mosaic to break up the transition between different tiles. We used the 100mm x 300mm interlocking strips of stone mosaic which had all different coloured stone through it but the colours complemented the two tiile types well. Came up great once everything was grouted. Hope this helps and good luck...
