Do I need to have the same flooring from entrance way to kitchen?

I’m adding a 10x20 foot mudd/laundry room off my kitchen. I have ceramic tile in my kitchen (10 years ) multicoloured with beiges, gray and cream. Should I carry the tile thru to the entrance way or can I match it and have the floor different in the entrance way?

    I would try to match it to what you have in the kitchen as it will look more cohesive.

    you can blend floors, there are no set rules, use what you like

    If you have a definite ‘doorway’ between the kitchen and mud room you can have different flooring materials...I would try for complimentary colours though

    There's no way you will be able to match it, even if they still make that exact tile, the dye lots would be different. I ideal situation is to have it match. So if redoing your kitchen floor is not an option (which would be a major job in it self), I would say you'll have to do a coordinating tile. You could try one that looks like hardwood.

    staying with the same material make the area look much larger
