In this guide, we’re going to break down all the latest tile trends, from styles to colours, providing inspiration on how you can transform your exteriors and interiors.

Style of Tiles

Whether you’re looking for a quick and easy way to refresh your bathroom, or are undergoing a complete house renovation, finding the right style of tile will make all the difference. We have an extensive range of tiles to suit your preferences.

Here are just three of those styles that have been trending recently.

Subway Tiles

As the name suggests, subway tiles take their inspiration from underground subway stations from the early 20th century. They provide a retro feel without looking outdated, offering an array of design possibilities. You can position these tiles in a chevron pattern, horizontally, vertically or even mix-and-match colours to suit your taste. Blue or Green subway tiling bring a vintage-inspired yet modern appearance to any room, and particularly thrive in bathrooms or kitchens.

Marble Tiles

Even though it’s trendy at the moment, marble tiles are a timeless design that will never go out of style. This is particularly due to their natural beauty and uniqueness, making them versatile tiles that work well in many different spaces. Reminiscent of ancient architecture, marble tiles can give your home that classic feel without the extravagant price point and last you for years to come. Marble doesn’t have to be a neutral design either, like these Rommano Porcelain Tiles which include elements of blue and gold to create an ocean-like effect.

Patterned Tiles

Patterned Tiles are all the rage right now. From Mediterranean-inspired mosaics to geometric shapes, there are a variety of patterned tiles to choose from when it comes to decorating your space. Suitable as both floor and wall tiles, pattern styles can offer something for every interior design taste, from mid-century to contemporary. Patterned tiles create visual interest, so can spruce up an area that’s looking dull or in need of some colour.

Colour of Tiles

Colours can be just as trendy as styles. Tiles can add a pop of colour to any room and instantly transform the space. If the room you’re working with is naturally a dark space, then adding some tiles of a lighter colour can make the space feel bigger and more open. Similarly, to add further visual interest, mixing and matching tiles can create a unique and customisable look, like the classic trend of black and white tiling. The Tile Outlet has a variety of tile colours to add that pop of colour into your home, here are just a few that have been trending recently.

Green Tiles

Green Tiles are an excellent choice for any space due to their tranquil and nature-inspired appearance. If your home feels too neutral, or it’s lacking in colour, adding a pop of green can brighten up a room while adding a relaxing atmosphere. Moreover, green is a complimentary colour that works well with many other shades. For instance, the Rojo Emerald Green Subway Tile we mentioned earlier has a deep green hue, adding subtle colour without overpowering a room. Others such as the Antica Green Subway Tile have a bolder colour that can be used to add personality and style to your home.

Blue Tiles

Similarly, Blue Tiles can add serenity and depth to your home, due to their resemblance to the oceans and skies. This works especially well in bathrooms, adding cohesiveness and making your space feel more luxurious. It’s equally as diverse a colour, with options ranging from deep navy to baby blue, making it compatible with any interior or exterior.

White Tiles

As a timeless design, White Tiles are perhaps the most versatile tile colour on offer. They add feelings of spaciousness to darker, smaller areas, making your home feel lighter and more open. White Tiles work well with any existing colour schemes, making their implementation hassle-free and seamless. There are a multitude of styles to choose from within the White Tile subcategory, helping to create whichever aesthetic effect you desire.

Format of Tiles

It’s not just the style and colour of tiles that can have an impact on the space around them. Tile Format can add visual interest to your home, and this has an endless number of possibilities. For instance, Fluted tiles can help to add dimension and sophistication, instantly elevating your interior. Alternatively, using various sizes of tiles or placing them in different patterns can make for a perfect accent wall, such as placing rectangular subway tiles in a herringbone or chevron pattern.

Due to their shape, Subway Tiles can be arranged in a range of patterns to create various looks and styles. Herringbone is very popular at the moment, which involves placing your tiles at a 45-degree angle, creating a visually engaging aspect to your space. Like the Herringbone pattern, Chevron designs create a V-shaped design that adds flair to kitchen backsplashes. Subway tiles are used by a great deal of interior designers because of their adaptability and timeless appearance.
