Where can I use tiles?
Tiles can be used in any room, and to complement any design. Here are some of the ways you may want to add tiles into your designs:
- Floors:
Tiles are frequently used to cover floors in kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, and other high-traffic areas. They are durable, easy to clean, and come in a wide range of styles and materials.
- Walls:
Tiles are commonly used to cover walls in bathrooms, kitchens, and as decorative accents in living areas. They can add texture, colour, and pattern to a space.
- Backsplashes:
Tiles are often installed as backsplashes in kitchens and bathrooms. They protect the walls from water, grease, and stains while adding a decorative element.
- Showers and bathtubs:
Tiles are commonly used to cover shower walls and floors, as well as the area around bathtubs. They provide a waterproof barrier and create a stylish, easy-to-clean surface.
- Outdoor areas:
Tiles designed for outdoor use, such as porcelain or natural stone tiles, can be used for patios, and pathways. These tiles are specifically made to withstand weather conditions and provide slip resistance.
- Fireplaces:
Tiles can be used to create a decorative surround for fireplaces, adding visual interest and protection from heat.
- Accent walls:
Installing tiles on one wall can create a focal point in a room, adding texture, colour, or pattern to enhance the overall design.
The impact of tiles.
Tiles can have a significant impact on the aesthetic of a space. Here are some ways in which tiles can make a difference in the overall aesthetic:
- Colour and Pattern:
Tiles come in a wide range of colours and patterns, allowing you to introduce visual interest and create a specific atmosphere. Whether you prefer bold and vibrant hues or subtle and neutral tones, the right choice of tile can set the tone for the entire room.
- Texture and Dimension:
Tiles can add texture and depth to a space, creating a more visually engaging environment. Textured tiles, such as those with raised patterns or embossed designs, can bring a tactile element to the surface. Three-dimensional tiles, such as mosaic or sculptural tiles, can create a sense of depth and movement.
- Style and Theme:
Different types of tiles are associated with specific styles or themes. For example, subway tiles are commonly associated with a classic or vintage look, while geometric tiles can evoke a modern or contemporary aesthetic. By selecting tiles that align with your desired style or theme, you can enhance the overall aesthetic and create a cohesive design.
- Visual Expansion:
The right choice of tiles can visually expand a space. Light-coloured and glossy tiles can reflect light, making a room appear larger and more open. Additionally, using the same type of tiles on both floors and walls can create a seamless flow, visually expanding the area.
- Focal Point:
Tiles can be used to create a focal point or an accent feature in a room. By selecting a standout tile design, colour, or pattern, you can draw attention to a specific area and create a visual centrepiece.
- Material and Finish:
Tiles are available in a variety of materials, such as ceramic, porcelain, natural stone or glass. Each material has its own unique characteristics and finishes, which can contribute to the overall aesthetic. For example, natural stone tiles can add warmth and earthiness, while polished porcelain tiles can bring a sleek and modern touch.
By carefully considering the colour, pattern, texture, style, and material of tiles, you can transform a space and achieve the desired aesthetic, whether it's classic, contemporary, rustic, or any other style you prefer. If you’re not sure where to start, our experienced sales team can talk you through the options available to achieve the look you want.
