44 Modern Shower Tile Ideas To Make Your Bathroom Amazing

Staggered Rows Mixed with Organized Rows

You Don’t Have To Go Symmetrical.  Not every tile in your shower has to be lined up perfectly to create a beautiful tile pattern. In fact, some shower tile patterns are purposely put into a disorganized look. This can be done by staggering the tiles with different colors or even shapes. These types of shower tile ideas are truly endless.

Scales of Grey

Triangular Shades of Blue

Checkered Tan with Solid White

A Checkered to Solid Color Shower Tile.  Another shower tile idea is a solid color that meets up with a solid pattern. This wall tile can be a checkered area of different colored small tiles and then an area that has one single color of tile. This can help make certain areas of the shower sand out by the change in a pattern. The tile ideas are endless for this type of shower tile and can be laid out according to your preference.

 

Large Marble Rectangles

Shifting Planks

Blue Tile Waterfall

Solid White Marble Crisp

Try a solid color of tile in the entire shower except for on or around the built-in niche then lay out a checkered look of two tones of tile.

 

Honeycomb Brown

Extruded White Brick

Chevron Shapes

Tall Standing White Tiles


A checkered tile pattern except for around certain areas of the shower like the faucets or maybe even a shelf. This shower tile pattern can be reversed as well for an equally unique look.

 

Contrasting Built-in Niche Centerpiece

To create a beautiful masterpiece in the center of your walk-in shower that is even more eye-popping, you can have a staggered look of tile with a set pattern in the center. For example, you can choose to do a letter to represent your last name or even just a diamond tile design or a particular shape with a set color.

Also, the tile colors can be of a different contrast altogether. This can transform the showers look completely.

20 ways to create impact and interest |

(Image credit: Leanne Ford Interiors / The Albion Bath Co / Bert & May/@thelandscapelodge / Future/Allan Callender)

If you're planning a remodel, you are likely looking for new shower tile ideas. Even in the smallest of rooms, these can be transformative, creating not just the opportunity to add color and pattern, but to introduce space-enhancing visual tricks, too. 

Usually we’d say the shower itself is the best place for a brainstorm, but thinking outside the cubicle and taking a look at these inspirational ideas for showers might just be the next best thing. 

Both waterproof and washable, bathroom tile ideas are perfect for showers both with and without trays, and for the floors of wet rooms, too. 

Aside from their practicalities, the availability of tiling in a wide array of shower-fit materials – from porcelain and glass, to ceramic and stone – as well as shapes, sizes, colors and finishes, means that the design possibilities are endless.

Shower tile ideas

Whether you’re looking to conjure contemporary cool with shower wall ideas or channel some classic elegance with marble shower floor ideas, you need good tile to turn walk-in shower ideas into practical but perfectly pretty spaces. These shower tile ideas will help turn your washroom into a waterproof wonder.

1. Create drama and play with proportion

(Image credit: Bert & May/@thelandscapelodge)

'Whether you are designing for walk-in shower ideas or looking for small bathroom shower tile ideas, using all the visual tricks you can will make a small bathroom look bigger,' says Lucy Searle, Editor in Chief, Homes & Gardens

'Decorating with stripes is one way to do this; diagonal lines draw the eye upwards and outwards which can trick the eye into seeing a space as wider and taller at the same time.'

2. Rethink what shower tiles can do

(Image credit: Drummonds/Sophie Head Interiors)

If you are looking for shower tile ideas with a difference, why not embrace the latest of bathroom trends: wall mural ideas?

'Many tile brands are now designing murals with tile so that you can create a feature wall with walk-in shower tiles, as seen in this bathroom by Drummonds , or behind the bathroom basin or over the bath,' says Jennifer Ebert, Homes & Gardens' digital editor. 'Forward-thinking brands such as Wall&Deco are also designing waterproof wallpapers that can be used in a similar way in bathrooms and even wet rooms.'

3. Go for all-over color with shower tiles

(Image credit: Drummonds)

Shower tile ideas can be used to create enormous impact if matched with wall and bathroom ceiling ideas in matching finishes. Your bathroom paint ideas can be easily color-matched to tile color, though you can choose other waterproof or water-resistant surfaces such as Tadelakt , which mimics traditional Moroccan plasterwork and can come in a range of colors. Combined with matte or low-sheen tiles, it can give even the tiniest of shower rooms incredible impact.

4. Play with tile sizes

(Image credit: Leanne Ford Interiors / The Albion Bath Co)

If you are working up a plan for bathroom shower ideas, it's likely you're designing a bathroom that has more than one function: both as a shower or wet room space and a bathing space.

Whether it a family bathroom or a Jack and Jill bathroom, this is going to be a busy space. In this case, and with all multi-purpose rooms, it pays to keep the decor simple. However, simple does not mean plain or bland. You can use shower tile ideas to add visual interest simply by using two different tile sizes in the same color, as in the bathroom above.

(Image credit: Living with Lolo/Life Created)

Just as you might keep the walls of a living room plain but throw down a colorful rug to add visual layering, color and pattern, the same can be achieved with shower tile. This is a useful ploy in a smaller space; with plain wall tile, the room will feel calmer and spacious, while the patterned floor tile will bring character and interest. 

'Note the sloped lip where the floor and wall tile join,' says Lucy Searle. 'This is a good way to ensure there are no areas in your shower where water pools, creating an opportunity for mold to grow on grouting. When you are tiling in a shower, it pays to use this technique both on the floor and in any storage niches. '

6. Bookmatch marble for drama

(Image credit: David Lovatti/Future)

Marble bathroom ideas can be an incredibly dramatic material to use for shower tile ideas, and bookmatching it creates extra impact and a sense of balance that's important in enhancing a small space – add it to your wet room ideas if you're looking to create a sophisticated feel.

'Natural stone, in slab, tile and mosaic forms, is a material we use often,' says Charu Gandhi, founder of interior design studio Elicyon . 'Marble instantly suggests classic elegance and something special, and it can be bookmatched to stunning effect.'

Founder of luxury interior design agency Taylor Howe s, Karen Howes adds, 'Luxurious real marble and durable, easy-to-maintain marble-effect porcelain always suggest tranquility and a connection to nature. I suggest using mosaics on the floor and larger-format tiles in the shower.'

7. Use mosaics to make the most of curves

(Image credit: Stephanie Coutas/Francis Amiand)

Mosaics allow you to create flexible shower tile ideas, and are especially useful for creating shower bench ideas that are both practical and free of sharp edges.  

'There is a real trend for installing shower benches in cubicles and wet rooms now,' says H&G Editor in Chief Lucy Searle. 'Largely inspired by the need for creating spa bathrooms at home post-pandemic, they can be tiled to create an eye-catching feature.'

8. Contrast floor and wall tiles in a shower

(Image credit: CP Hart/Anna Stathaki)

To create a really impactful look, create contrast with tile layout patterns and ideas. This Art Deco style bathroom designed by Yousef Mansuri, director of design at CP Hart , includes a wet room style shower – but space isn't actually that big. So as not to detract from the room's size – and its many Deco features – the white and black chequerboard floor tiles were continued into the shower area. To contrast with the floor, the owner, who grew up in Spain, chose azure blue glazed wall tiles to remind him of the ocean; they are finished with a polished black trim for definition.

9. Pick porcelain for practicality

(Image credit: JL Design/Reagan Taylor Photography)

Porcelain tiles can be designed to mimic the look of other materials – it could be something as simple as a marble-look, or you could choose something more adventurous, such as a wood-effect. Either way, it's a versatile way to create more impactful shower room ideas without spending a fortune on natural materials.

'A porcelain tile is a great option as shower tile ideas as they require no sealing. With any bathroom project it is also worth considering the slip resistance of the tiles – a balance of beauty and practicality should be met,' says Isabel Fernandez, Director at natural stone flooring company Quorn Stone . 

10. Create a feature wall with shower tiles

(Image credit: Future / Artisan of Devizes)

If you want to create a luxurious appeal, one way to do so is to make room for a large shower area – and to draw attention to it with a feature wall of brightly patterned tiles. 

'When it comes to pattern, I like to keep things simple but bold, as this creates a more contemporary look than a busy mix. Pick a genre of pattern and stick to it, combining perhaps two graphic patterns, for example, rather than mixing in a floral as well,' advises interior and textiles designer Eva Sonaike .

11. White marble is a timeless option

(Image credit: Future/Alicia Taylor)

'An interior design classic, marble’s cool and opulent aesthetic looks beautiful in a range of interiors, from minimal and laid-back chic to maximalist styles saturated with color,' says Lee Thornley, Founder of Bert & May . 

'Until recently, marble was a luxury statement, timeless but out of reach for many interiors enthusiasts. However, smaller format tiles are now bringing this stunning material into more homes, and it has been lovely to see the beautiful natural patinas within the stone creating a unique and natural design in so many, varied settings.'

White shower tile ideas are easiest to work around, making white-gray marble a hugely popular choice that works well either as an accent or in abundance. Even when used generously over large tiles — as in the bathroom picture shown above — its effect is still relatively understated.

12. Get tonal with deep blues 

(Image credit: Future/Davide Lovatti)

With its calming properties and associations with watery worlds, blue is an excellent choice for shower room tiles.  

To shake off the clichés, go dark with your choice of shade, and to stop it being too domineering, embrace a little tonal range. 

In the shower room shown above, square tiles in a few different tones give a sense of movement to the wall, like gently undulating waves. Pair it with pure white fittings to keep things light. 

13. Keep it neutral (for now)

(Image credit: Future/Davide Lovatti)

‘The tiles in a bathroom are an important part of the room and often span both wall and floor,’ says Isabel Fernandez, Director at Quorn Stone . ‘With this in mind we find neutral colors work well for the tiles, as pops of color can be added through accessories, tap finishes and painted vanity units.’

In this room, a spectacular standalone shower cubicle is clad in white and gray marble, while the rest of the room is treated to a large multi-colored bathroom art idea on the wall.

14. Go big with patterns

(Image credit: Future/Paul Raeside)

For an invigorating start to the day, embrace pattern in your shower tiles – and don’t be afraid to use them in bulk. In this room, a rustic tile has been used in repetition to create an all-encompassing, Mediterranean feel. 

'We are seeing an increase in bold use of color and pattern when it comes to choosing shower tiling schemes', says Thornley.

'Where previously iterations of fairly traditional 'spa-like', pared back schemes were very popular, the shower is being increasingly seen as an opportunity to add an exciting splash of color and personality into a bathroom.'

15. Create a glamorous nook amid rustic charm

(Image credit: Future/Claudia Dulak)

The jewel-like quality of tiling means it has the capability to turn a shower nook into a glamorous getaway. 

Here, a farmhouse-style design embraces natural textures and wood paneling throughout most of the room, while a partially concealed shower area is picked out in white-gray marble, adding a distinctly luxurious touch. 

If the natural stone panels are slightly beyond your budget, it is now possible to get marble-effect tiles made from porcelain that are both convincing and more accessible.  

16. Subway tiles are made for monochrome looks

(Image credit: Future/James Merrell)

Subway tile ideas aren't going anywhere, and while these on-trend oblong favorites are available in pretty much every color and finish, a classic high-shine white with black grouting will bring some vintage character to a monochrome look. 

A black border helps break up their wall-to-wall use in this shower tile idea while the patterned bathroom floor tile idea makes the subway tiles feel less utilitarian and more purposeful. 

17. Journey under the sea with green marble 

(Image credit: Future/Davide Lovati)

Of course, Calacatta-style white isn’t the only marble rippling into shower rooms these days, as the material’s sinewy natural pattern makes it a fit for wet rooms in myriad colors. The atmospheric deep sea tones of emerald green are a particularly on-trend choice. 

‘Our clients are increasingly opting for the richer, darker Verde Guatemala marble we now offer as an option on many of our products and we expect this material to prove ever more popular,’ says James Lentaigne, Creative Director at Drummonds .  

‘Green marble works extremely well with brassware and accessories in warm brass tones or dark antique finishes, helping to create a refined, luxurious look.’

(Image credit: Future/Allan Callender)

Shower tiling doesn’t have to be confined to a cubicle. If you’re looking for a practical backsplash to a standalone bathtub and shower head, use tiles to turn an awkward wall space into a work of art. 

In the bathroom wall idea shown above, just part of the wall has been filled with patterned tiles to create a deliberate feature, framed like a picture with wall paint. Tiling just a small — but carefully chosen — area is great for using more expensive tiles to make an impact without breaking the budget. 

 19. Get geometric with your marble 

(Image credit: Future/Darren Cheung)

Large panels of marble allow full appreciation of the material’s natural motif, but using it in small amounts lends focus to the details. In this shower, the stone’s irregular layers are contrasted with the strong geometric lines of a patterned tessellation, which is both instantly impactful and endlessly entrancing.  

20. Bring the whole room together with all-out tiling

(Image credit: Future/Jonathan Gooch)

For rooms with more open-plan shower areas, tiles can be used to either zone an area, or encourage a boundary-less feel. 

In this wet room, wall tiles run out of the shower space and across the bath to tie this area together. The floor tiles continue across the whole room, reassuring all users that their soggy feet won’t do damage wherever they tread. 

What is the best tile for a shower? 

If you're wondering how to tile a bathroom wall, or which materials are best to use, porcelain, glass, stone and ceramic all work really well in a shower space. 

But regardless of what material you choose, Thornley warns you should understand it fully before getting started, as there are costly mistakes to avoid when buying tiles.

‘One of the most important things for shower tiling is to make sure that you know what kind of tile you are using, and to ensure that you install it correctly. Different materials need different treatment, it will not only make a huge difference to the longevity of your bathroom, but also to the finished look if you get it wrong.’ 

What is the best size tile for a shower?

There is no hard and fast rule for the best tile size for a shower, though you will see advice that says smaller rooms require a smaller tile so that it feels in proportion to the space. While this can work, it doesn't play to the visual tricks you can create with tile to make your space feel larger and more characterful. In fact, using a large-scale tile in a small shower room can make it feel larger than small-scale tile, which will have more grout lines, creating a visually busier (and therefore smaller) space.

What is the easiest tile to keep clean in a shower? 

For Fernandez, porcelain is the way to go for a low-maintenance result. 

‘They are a great option for bathroom spaces as they require no sealing and most bathroom cleaners can be used to keep them looking their best,’ she says. ‘A porcelain tile can also be used in conjunction with epoxy resin grout which ensures the grout lines remain free from discoloration and any dreaded black mould.’

18 incredible shower ideas to inspire you to renovate

Tired of your shower and need fresh ideas? Maybe it's too tight. Perhaps its appearance is outdated, and it looks somehow dull and gray. Or does the shower area simply lack a certain personality?

Whatever the reason for your dissatisfaction, we will help you by sharing 18 brilliant bathroom shower space design ideas that will completely update the outdated look of the shower and bath.

18 amazing and innovative shower ideas for your bathroom

There are many ways to give your bathroom the look you want. You may need only minor interventions to update it - for example, you just need to change the color of the walls, hang a shower curtain or put a rug on the floor. Sometimes, in order to make the bathroom look fresh and modern, it is enough to replace the plumbing. If you decide to completely update its appearance, you can remove the bathtub and organize a shower area with transparent glass panels in its place or divide the space of the room into two parts - for a shower and a bathtub. Such solutions will look elegant and individual.

The key to most modern design projects is to create an open space or visibility. There are many ways to create this visual effect. It can be achieved with light colors and contrast, well-placed patterns/patterns, and even glass or reflective surfaces. Vertical orientation and giving space depth are a common denominator in current ideas for arranging shower areas, thanks to which each of them will create a feeling of spaciousness and novelty.

#1. BRIGHT, BOLD AND MODERN SHOWER RENOVATION IDEAS

It's amazing how a bright pattern can bring a small space to life. This example has a lot of great little touches to borrow from. First, notice the black-painted ceiling with a metal-framed light fixture. It creates a contrast to the entire space of the room and gives it an interesting look. Wooden shelves with decorative cast-iron brackets add warmth to the room while maintaining a cohesive style. Although plain white tiles are used, they come in different sizes and shapes, creating a really nice texture. And with the help of a curtain with bright patterns, an accent was made - the room immediately “played”.

#2. A GREAT UPDATE FOR A SMALL SHOWER

When working with small spaces, do your best to make the room look bigger. Light colors visually create volume, patterns / patterns also increase it. This ruffled shower curtain adds softness to the space, but at the same time it adds height to the room due to the vertical folds. The white color of the curtain in this room with walls in a soft neutral tone is a smart choice that does not disturb the overall light shade of the space. It is not necessary to make everything monochromatic, but using the same color scheme for walls and curtains can visually enlarge the room.

#3. A BEAUTIFUL EARTH-INSPIRED BATHROOM TILE

Who wouldn't want a custom tiled bathroom with such individual character? Just imagine how wonderful it is to take a shower in such an oasis every day. We really like the color of the tiles on the longitudinal wall. It has the look of marble but in warm, natural earth tones that look so luxurious and inviting. The wall with the image of a tree is a real work of art. It is covered with a slab of Cambrian quartz agglomerate/composite stone (Cambria). The pattern of the tree and leaves is made with the help of inlay, and the shades of quartz are selected by hand. The rest of the room, including the floor, is tiled, while the opposite wall is made entirely of glass. A project of this kind, thanks to its individual and unique features, can seriously increase the value of your home.

#4. SIMPLE WAYS TO GIVE CHIC TO A REGULAR BATHROOM

Sometimes the bathroom becomes a kind of functional room, devoid of any style. It's okay, it can be fixed. With a little creativity, even the most boring bathroom can be made to look chic. You can start by painting the walls (in this case, the cinder block partitions) in the same color, the space will begin to breathe. This will form the basis for further action. Wooden flooring in the shower to some extent will create the atmosphere of a spa. Antique-style wooden hook-and-loop bar adds interest and warmth to the room. With a white top and horizontal gray stripes at the bottom, the shower curtain is the perfect transition piece that adds a sense of verticality to the space while elegantly merging dark floors and light walls into a single look.

#5. Transform your bathroom with patterned wallpaper

No, it's not about old-fashioned patterns. Modern print with trendy patterns will completely transform the look of any bathroom, turning it into a completely new space. These wallpapers will add color, volume and are a great way to bring back to life and modernize an outdated interior. If you're renting a house, self-adhesive wallpaper is generally a great solution - you can stick it on when you move in and take it off when you leave. In this project, in addition to wallpapering the cabinet doors, new handles with a glass head were installed. A glass stand with a hidden fastener was also suspended. Bright white towels and a curtain with a dark blue pattern fit perfectly into the overall color palette.

#6. REFINED DESIGN SHOWER

Does your significant other splash more water when showering than they pour on themselves? Then this project is for you. If you are lucky enough to have a large bathroom, then a glass-framed shower area is an impressive and modern solution. We also love the little pedestal in the shower, which delineates the space in a functional and elegant way. The multicolored neutrals on the tiled floor add some contrast. But what makes this project particularly interesting is the dark wood floors. As for the rug and other textiles, it is better to stick to a neutral range and simple patterns - this will fit well with the minimalist organization of the entire space.

#7. EASY RESTORATION OF THE APPEARANCE OF THE SHOWER: RESTORATION (ENAMELING)

Restoration of a shower cabin or bathtub can give impressive results. In old houses, showers and bathtubs that have faded from time to time and darkened from long use, which, of course, look outdated, are sometimes found. But you can not rush to throw them away: processing these items with enamel is a great and affordable way to restore their appearance. It is best to choose the traditional bright white color, which is associated with cleanliness and freshness. And if you also got a bathroom with faded, faded wallpaper, then a coat of neutral paint will help restore the room to a new look.

#8. LUXURY STYLE SHOWER WITH GOLD ACCENTS

Simply changing the color of your fixtures and fittings can dramatically change the look of your shower area in your bathroom. Subway tiles are extremely popular, but with simple plumbing, they can sometimes look boring and boring. The matte gold hue of the fittings and fixtures immediately brings the look to life in this project. It brings a certain warmth and creates an interesting contrast to the white tiles. Thanks to him, the shower area looks modern. A transparent glass door looks very appropriate, which allows you to see all this beauty, allows you to enjoy the magnificent style. We especially love how well the warm gold hue pairs with the wood cabinetry and the splashes of yellow on the rug.

#9. FUNNY PATTERNS AND SPACE MORE

Yes, you can combine multiple patterns, even in a small space. Take a look at this masterfully crafted project. As already noted, the light colors of the walls and ceiling are what you need when it comes to visually increasing compact areas. However, there is plenty of room for other design choices as well.

This project makes good use of a small vertically designed alcove space and open shelves for storing bath products, which adds extra usable space to the room. To make it look attractive, experiment with artistically executed items for storing various necessary things, for example, place wire or wicker baskets on such shelves.

The tiles in this bathroom are just gorgeous. Check out this geometric pattern. This is an interesting accent, which is contrasted with a gentle greenish bathtub. This tile pairs perfectly with a shower curtain with neutral gray and white stripes and silver sanitary fittings. Only 5 color shades were used in the interior, but what a wonderful result.

#10. RUSTIC MINIMALIST BATH TRANSFORMATION

Simply chic. This bathroom looks like it's located somewhere in a luxury boutique hotel in a resort. The shower frame partition looks elegant. It allows the use of transparent glass to maintain the feeling of spaciousness of the room, but also structures the space and at the same time emphasizes its volume and three-dimensionality. A wooden bench and wooden shelving in the form of a ladder, thanks to the use of natural materials, help to create a warm atmosphere in a rustic style. A beautiful oriental carpet on the floor has the same effect. If your room has enough space, you can decorate it with plants that fit perfectly into this look.

#11. OPEN INTERIOR DESIGN FOR A SPACIOUS BATHROOM

This project is an example of how a bathroom can be enhanced with architectural modifications. Replace the sliding door and bathtub with a shower with this kind of partition, which will make your bathroom much more spacious. This concept can be called a hybrid: the partition is partly a wall, partly a glass panel, and it all looks great. We also love that the dark tiles in the shower match perfectly with the dark flooring in the rest of the room. It's kind of a small touch, but it adds coherence to the whole interior. Framing in bright white, a simple painting on the wall, a rug and a towel were all it took to complete this bold look.

#12. TRADITIONAL STREET VIEW BATHROOM

Windows are not just for living rooms and bedrooms. Some bathrooms offer such stunning views that it's best not to hide them behind shower curtains or frosted doors. Open up your bathroom space with a transparent glass panel and you'll get a double benefit: your bathroom will be visually larger and you'll be able to enjoy the view from the window. If you have such a wonderful window, be sure to cover the frame with waterproof paint to protect the wood from moisture. Such a simple solution will make an ordinary bathroom much more interesting.

#13. CONTEMPORARY AND TRADITIONAL COMBINATION FOR A UNIQUE LOOK

The corrugated/grooved glass blocks look amazing in this project. There are a lot of interesting ideas here. Separating the shower from the rest of the bathroom creates a sense of discreet luxury. The use of tiles inside and outside the shower helps to functionally break up and structure the space, creating the necessary counterbalance to the glass blocks. The use of glass panels is a great solution, and the choice in favor of brass fixtures, details and fittings in general is undeniable. And finally, this chandelier - isn't it a miracle?

#14. GREAT BATHROOM RENOVATION

Whenever you can separate the shower from the rest of the bathroom, the result is great. It adds a sense of luxury to the entire space. In this case, the shower area has been reduced to make room for the rest of the room, but the shower has a rain shower head and is separated by a modern looking glass partition. The bright white walls and tiles contrast beautifully with the dark wood cabinetry and floor tiles. Thanks to the renovation, the bathroom is bright and airy and filled with a zen atmosphere.

#15. METRO TILE, WOODEN FLOORS AND GOLD LOOK FITTINGS

Minimalist design and brushed gold combine as beautifully as butter and honey. Plumbing fittings in gold look amazing, although somewhat unexpected. It adds an interesting accent that can transform the entire look of a bathroom. Even the classic "metro" tile is given a new twist thanks to these golden details. The warm tones of the noble metal are especially well combined with wooden floors and furniture. Any shade of blue also complements gold well, as blue and yellow tones are at opposite points on the color wheel and visually emphasize each other.

#16. HACK: SHOWER DOORS SHINING CLEAR

And now for a little surprise! We have some helpful advice for you. All of these bathroom projects use glass or tiles that look perfect when new and clean. What happens when you start showering every day? That's right, everything will be covered in soap splatter, which can sometimes be difficult to remove. To do this, you can use a cloth or napkin dipped in conditioner. Clean glass and tiles with it, and then wash them in the usual way. And here again the shower area shines with cleanliness!

#17. CEILING-TO-FLOW TILE SHOWER

You may not have intended to use glossy gray tile in your shower, but after seeing this project, you may change your mind. All reflective surfaces have a special property of visually increasing space. Glossy neutral-coloured tiles have a double effect in this sense, also thanks to their light tint.
