What's the right layout for this shower with 12x24 tile
12x24 tile in the shower is tough! First time laying out, any tips?
Staggered or straight for vertical 12x24 tile in the shower?
12x24 tile on shower wall not level, is it ok?
What exactly do you mean by "level" here? The term refers specifically to making something perfectly horizontal.
Are you talking more about making it flat, meaning no humps or valleys in the surface? Or maybe "plumb" which means perfectly vertical.
Anyway, for all kinds of wall tile you want perfectly flat and plumb. If he doesn't seem to care about this then you're in trouble IMO.
Yes I set tile professionally.

Some images of a flat layout of a 36x72 alcove shower. Keep in mind, im not a pro, and want to keep this easy as possible. The tile manufacturer suggests only using a straight stack or a 1/3 offset - not a 1/2 offset. I'm not sure what the right way to do this is, no matter what it would not be symmetrical - if that matters.
Also note on my images the green boxes are showing the dimensions of the alcove area, which is about 2 inches taller than 7ft. The previous tiles didnt look good going up to the ceiling because the ceiling isnt completely level. So i prefer terminating the tile just short of the ceilling to get a nice straight line of tile on the top row. Should this edge be capped with schluter strip also?
Still need to fill in a few spots, but does anything look off with my dry lay?
