1. Encaustic Tiles
When it comes to decorating with tiles, encaustic tiles are our top pick! The best part of using these tiles is that even after prolonged use, their design and pattern doesn’t fade and remains the same. It is because the patterns are not set in glaze but instead, in various shades of clay. These tiles with their geometric and symmetrical patterns create beautiful designs when laid alongside each other. Use Encaustic tiles on washroom floors, foyers, and even for the outdoor areas.
2. Minimalist Subway Tiles
With a wide variety of tiles available, it can be quite overwhelming to settle down for a particular style of tiles. However, you can never go wrong with the classic subway tiles! Use subway tiles in bathroom and kitchen walls to create a serene and calming environment. Make use of large tiles to create a stunning impact.
3. Herringbone and Zig-Zag Pattern
The Herringbone pattern is well known for wooden floors. However, these days, people are using the pattern in tiles as well. Basically, they are rectangular tiles, placed in a zig-zag format. Although this pattern looks amazing on the floor, they function admirably on the backsplash as well.
4. Feature Walls
Tiles are ubiquitous when it comes to functional spaces. However, when it comes to bringing in tiles into our living space, we hesitate. We suggest, make an impact with bold and colorful tiles in your living room. Make an accent wall using tiles to add textural brilliance to your home.
5. Tile Rugs
Not your usual rug, a tile rug will add personality to your home. Pick a runner style design for a narrow space or define an open kitchen area with edged hexagonal tiling. Tile rugs are an excellent way of adding color to a room. Additionally, tile rugs also work well in the outdoors to highlight separate zones inside a space, for instance a dining area outside.
6. Three Dimensional
Who says tiles can’t be three dimensional? These fun tiles work admirably as a panel and could even be utilized as part of a kitchen or corridor.
7. Hexagonal Tiles
Among all the trends, our most-loved pattern is using hexagon-shaped tiles to make a honeycomb impact. These tiles can add visual interest to any room.
8. Fish Scales
A surprising and fun way of using tiles is with the fish scale molded tiles. These can look incredible anyplace – in the washroom or, even in the kitchen island and counter.
