Summary
The project aims to enhance workspace practicality and hygiene by installing a tile backsplash in a red color scheme. The installation process involves careful measurement and preparation to ensure a perfect fit, with dimensions set at approximately 52 cm.
Specific adhesive mix ratios are discussed, with a recommendation of 1.6 liters of water per 5 kilos of material. The team opts for a gradual approach to mixing the adhesive, emphasizing the importance of achieving the right consistency for effective application.
Techniques for sealing joints are highlighted, including the use of a sponge to ensure a clean finish. The choice of a darker color for the tiles is intended to mask any irregularities in the wall, contributing to a cohesive aesthetic.
Challenges arise during the installation, particularly with the irregular edges of the wall. The team decides against cutting the edges of the tiles, opting instead to work with the existing contours to maintain the integrity of the installation.

Metrics
dimensions
52 cm
installation dimensions
Proper dimensions ensure functionality and fit within the workspace.
In general, the ingredients are more or less 50 cm. So we're at 52, so it's perfect.

1.6 liters of water by 5 kilos of material liters
adhesive mix ratio
Correct mix ratios are crucial for the adhesive's effectiveness.
So the mix is 1.6 liters of water by 5 kilos of material.
