Brighten the Bathroom

It’s fair to say that patterned tiles are having a renaissance across modern homes, particularly within the bathroom. Whether used as a feature wall or across the entire floor, there are many patterns and styles that will add depth and dimension to your bathroom or ensuite.

A repeating pattern in a calm neutral palette is the perfect choice for creating a soothing aesthetic. Glebehouse Renovation has used our Cuban Silver Sky tile as a wonderful bathroom floor tile; the soft tones pair beautifully with the earthy green panelling and sit wonderfully with traditional and contemporary fixtures and fittings.

You can even take on a bolder colour scheme with our lovely Contrasti Tappeto Ottanio tiles in a fresh aqua shade. The teal tones sit cohesively within period style properties and coordinate seamlessly with greenery and classic influences – transporting you into an oasis of calm and relaxation.

Transform the Hallway

When people enter your home, the hallway will always be the first space they see, which is why so many homeowners want to create an instant wow-factor.

The entrance should always be reflective of the rest of your home, which is why it’s a great idea to be creative with your décor choices. Patterned tiles create an inviting atmosphere and a lasting first impression. As seen here in Claire A Ramshaw’s home, she has used the Cuban tiles as a lovely hallway flooring choice and has contrasted them with plush pink wall panelling, resulting in a dreamy entranceway. Similarly, Happiness is Interiors has used Cuban’s White Ornate tiles throughout their hall with a neutral colour palette to tone down the overall look. We love it!

Our Arles tiles provide a subtle take on pattern and will revive and refresh any home. The mixture of the Décor pattern gives homeowners the option to create a unique and dramatic look in a softened palette, which will stand the test of time.

Revive the Fireplace

Typically, when it comes to tile transformations the fireplace often gets forgotten about. Just like how you would add a splashback to your kitchen, you can use tiles to create a statement backdrop for your fireplace, or you can go all-out and tile the whole thing.

We love the look of our Cuban White Star tiles used by Living At The Lodge on their fireplace. The contrast of the wood and dark hues brings the entire look together - creating a soothing, organic-modern look.
