I have a 45 degree wall butting up to two straight walls. The 45 degree angle is only 50cm long. I am tiling with rectangular metro style tiles in a brick pattern. Should there be a visible joint which is either siliconed or grouted? - or should the tiles butt up to avoid a vertical gap?
How to do a vertical joint at 45 degrees with brick pattern?

leave a 2mm gap then silicone, same colour as your grout. Unless it is a solid wall then you can just grout it mate

you could butt up mate but its not the correct way unless you you still leave a 2mm gap, plasterboard walls can move with heat, thats why ya need a gap and silicone, grout would / could crack away from it, no gap and you could end up having chipped edges on ya tiles
