37 Seriously Beautiful Bathroom Tile Ideas
Inspiration and fresh ideas for small bathroom renovations
Whether you're an interior designer yourself or just looking for some inspiration and fresh renovation ideas, we'd like to share this year's hottest bathroom tile trends with you.
So, when it comes to interior design, the most important message of 2021 is to be true to yourself and your preferences.
With today's wide selection, from modernized subway tiles and wood look tiles to handcrafted tiles and the comeback terrazzo effect tiles, there is something for everyone to renovate their bathroom.
Modern subway tiles
Subway textured Carrara Dots Etched Marble Subway (Carrara marble effect in gray and polka dots) will enliven the look of your bathroom or shower area. You can lay this anti-slip moisture-resistant tile in the classic way, or in a herringbone or chevron pattern - the main thing is that you get the desired result.
According to the latest trends of this year, the most popular is the "metro" tile in a modern interpretation. Whether it's a handcrafted style tile (zellige style), a frosted tile that mimics misted glass, or a marble effect tile with a polka dot pattern to add depth and texture (see photo above). Subway tiles in their fresh take will give your bathroom a simple yet modern look.
If you still prefer traditional subway tiles, you can liven up the interior with an interesting installation pattern (for example, herringbone), and to enhance the effect, add a mosaic insert on the subway tiled wall (as in the photo below) .
- BOAR TILE "METRO" - 217 COLLECTIONS and 1 317 PRODUCTS IN THE CATALOG KERAMOGRANIT.RU
Wood effect tiles
A contemporary bathroom with Roman Flower Wooden Beige in wood beige with a floral pattern looks bright and fresh.
By opting for wood look porcelain stoneware tiles, in addition to the natural beauty of wood, you will get the strength characteristics of porcelain stoneware. Tiles made from this material will help you embody the Scandinavian style that is popular this year or the style of a country house.
Gems Bianco large-format wood look porcelain stoneware tiles are perfect for bathroom decoration. Such a tile will look harmoniously with an exclusive decor. Thanks to its muted hue, it can also create a warm, welcoming atmosphere of a modern country house.
Tiles with a wood texture look very cozy and will especially please nature lovers. It can be used both inside the house and for lining the shower in the yard, but unlike wood, it is not subject to the negative effects of moisture.
- WOOD LOOK PORCELAIN - 315 COLLECTIONS and 2,148 PRODUCTS
Floral bathroom design
Also in the interior design of the bathroom, botanical motifs and generally organic style are no less relevant. In order to bring the beauty of nature into the room, you can use various decorative elements, for example, a plant in a pot or wallpaper with a floral pattern. But for the bathroom, of course, tiles with botanical prints are better suited.
These two stunning tiles combine sophisticated Japanese style with the strength of porcelain stoneware. Both light cherry blossom tiles (pictured above) and black plank tiles with blossoming branches (pictured below) bring botanical garden charm to the bathroom.
If you like wallpaper with a floral pattern, but would like to protect the finish from moisture, tile gives you that option. The stunning floral mosaic tiles in Carrara and Bardillo marbles are the perfect expression of the botanical bathroom trend.
- CERAMIC TILE WITH FLOWERS - 265 COLLECTIONS and 741 ITEM
Neutral tiles
Who said neutral bathroom décor is boring? Mosaic tiles in the form of triangles, despite the discreet beige hue, look alive due to the three-dimensional texture. It is perfect for a shower area or an accent wall in the bathroom.
If you like to freshen up the look of your interior often, then the trend of using neutral-colored tiles for bathroom decoration may well suit you. Instead of knocking down old tiles and putting in new ones every year, opt for tiles in a neutral hue (such as beige, gray, or white). Find tiles in the shade, shape, size and texture that best suits you. It can be, for example, natural stone tiles or white marble.
