I agree, tile that isn't slippery, a color that hides dirt, somewhat close
together with thin grout line, filled with DARK colored grout.

Since my floor has to be concrete because it has in-slab radiant heating, I
decided to use the concrete slab as my floor.  I am making my concrete look
like tiles.  The concrete will have integral tint to a *dirty* beige color
all the way through.  They are charging me only a very nominal extra fee for
the tint and saw cutting (my slab will barely cost more than a regular
garage or house slab) so my flooring will be almost free.  I am putting in
the grout, a dark brown color, and sealing it with a low VOC concrete
sealant.  1800 sq.ft. of *flooring* won't cost me even $1000!

If I had a house already built I would use tile instead.
