Tile trends for 2023 show how this enduring design feature can continuously be reinvented to transform the look and feel of your home, from the bathroom to the kitchen and beyond.

Tiles are some of the most decorative and versatile surface finishes, and have been a staple within interiors for centuries, with an evolution of shapes, sizes, materials, colors and patterns (this list could go on and on). Beautiful as well as hardwearing and extremely durable, tiles are a great way to breathe stylish new life into the home, whether that is through kitchen tile ideas or bathroom tile ideas.

For 2023 tile trends, we have spoken with the experts as well as collected some of our favorite fresh looks. Whether you love a quintessentially Victorian floor tile, or the finish of an artisan glazed design, these exciting, upcoming trends cover an array of styles and finishes.  

Tile trends for 2023

When picking tiles for your home, key aspects to consider include the tile material and finish, size, color, pattern, layout and, ultimately, the overall look and impact you want to achieve with the design.

From walls to floors, countertops and all manner of surfaces, tiles can be used to add beautiful texture, impactful color and artistic pattern to the home, as well as establish layers of strong protection.

With so many changing trends and styles to choose from, these transformative tile trends for 2023 can help you narrow down your selections and be in the know with very latest in tile design.

1. Textured tiles

You could say that with whatever tile you choose, the design will add texture and dimension to a room, however, recent tile trends show that more of us are opting for tiles with more irregular, shifting surfaces, rather than those that are smooth and sleek.  

From more rustic, subtle textured styles, like the playful sherbet blue and white tiles shown above from Tileworks at Original Style, to spectacular 3D designs with raised detailing, grooves and shapes, these designs can establish an eye-catching sense of depth and movement in a room.

2. Checkerboard

We all know that checkerboard has taken the world of fashion and interiors by storm over the last few years, and whether you like it or not, this classic pattern is staying around for 2023. 

Whether you opt for a more traditional black and white palette, or create a union of vibrant, modern colors, a checkerboard tile pattern can add an beautiful, graphic touch to a space. 

'Checkerboard, once subsumed within traditional design, has now emerged as its very own trend, and evolved into one of the hottest surface and tile trends within bathrooms. We should also mention that stripes are just as popular, and for the ultimate combination, the two can be contrasted together,' says Barrie Cutchie, design director at BC Designs .

Even though checkerboard is one of the most popular styles of tile, there is so much variety in terms of color, size and material, so you really can establish an utterly unique checkerboard tile design in your home.

Chris Gulson-Brooke, founder of Maitland & Poate says, 'bold colors and patterns are set to continue to be popular and in demand for 2023. Homeowners are wanting to add their own personality and style to their homes, stepping away from the greys and subtle color combinations to add a more vibrant, inspired color palette. 

The addition of a pattern, be it with a whole floor, complete wall, or simply  an eye-catching tiled splashback, can fill a room with individual and unique flair – ideal when coordinated with other textures and furnishings for an overall inviting look. '

For centuries, tiles have been used to bring color, pattern and texture into the home, and we are only getting more adventurous in our chosen designs as time goes by. Tiles provide the perfect platform to create an impactful design statement in the home, just like a beautiful work of art. 

4. Luxurious natural stone

From stunning onyx tiles, to granite, limestone and using marble in home design, these natural materials can establish a luxurious and dramatic look for tile ideas in the home, with these materials often a popular choice for bathroom ideas and for countertops.

We have seen a rising trend in spa bathrooms in 2022, and this style is set to continue into 2023, with a focus on luxurious materials, elegant design details and creating a space that feels like your very own wellness retreat. These materials are also great for creating a calming, indoor-outdoor feel and connection with the outside world, which is a key interior design trend for 2023.

Materials such as marble and onyx are ideal for spa-like, luxury bathrooms, creating a truly opulent feel. Of course, if you want the real thing, these tiles are not the cheapest, but there are a range stone-effect tiles out there to choose from, as shown by the stunning Jewel Onyx Pink Tile by Porcelain Superstore above, which is actually crafted from porcelain.

5. Timeless terracotta

An ancient, earthenware tile that has been used for thousands of years, terracotta will always be one of the most popular and enduring tile trends. 

Hamish Smith, creative director at Ca’Pietra says, 'when it comes to choosing tiles, terracotta designs are certainly having their moment. From baked clay tones that warm up any room, to earthy texture with just the right balance between rugged and refined, it’s no wonder that terracotta is a forever trend. '

Smith goes on to say, 'the beauty of our Marlborough Terracotta (aside from its Siena-style coloring) is that it builds up a patina over time. In other words, the more you use it and the older it gets, the better and more characterful it will look. To add an inviting warmth to your space, lay these tiles from the kitchen through to hallway, cloakroom and dining room.'

6. Magical Moroccan

Known for its vibrant colors, intricate designs and mixture of textures, Moroccan style has become one of the most significant trends of the year, as shown by the worldwide success of North African handicraft products, such as Berber rugs, raffia baskets, metal lanterns and decorative Moroccan tiles. 

The trend will keep going strong and is also a timeless style that won't date. Add some extra color and create a unique appearance, full of patterns and life, by using ceramic hydraulic tiles, which are long-lasting and extremely easy to install and keep clean. They are also suitable for most floors and tiling bathroom walls.

Using Moroccan tiles is a fool proof way to add a colorful and characterful touch to a room, either as a wall or floor covering. You can also create a focal point, choosing one element of the room, like the kitchen island, and cover it using patchwork prints.

Ca'Pietra's Hamish Smith explains, 'a decorative tile adds instant impact underfoot and it’s a fantastic way of refreshing or updating kitchens, bathrooms and hallways. Opt for an encaustic tile that will age beautifully and create a lived-in look over time, porcelain tiles for ease of maintenance, or mosaic tiles underfoot to really bring the room to life.'

7. Colors that are at one with nature

(Image credit: Topps Tiles)

We are constantly inspired by the natural world in interior design, from material to texture and color, and 2023 will see a collection of palettes that are at one with nature, helping to create a grounding, calming and relaxed atmosphere in the home.

‘As life takes on a slower pace and the world around us pauses to breathe and reflect, more and more of us are gaining pleasure from recharging and relaxing at home. With this in mind, when it comes to tiles think lush greens, deep moss tones and the rich, rustic reds of autumnal leaves,' says Ca'Pietra's Hamish Smith.

'Green in all its many forms is ideal for interior projects, as it’s a calming, soothing palette that suits all spaces. It is inherently tranquil and connected to nature, and this is why choosing tiles from this color palette will have longevity. 

If you're exploring green kitchen ideas or green bathroom ideas, instead of using paint, why not incorporate the color through beautiful tiles instead – or use both!

8. Art Deco exuberance

Decorative Art Deco fan shapes take the lead for 2023 glamour. Above, Fired Earth's High Society Glass Gatsby tiles are wonderful for small bathrooms that need help to feel bigger and brighter.

Art Deco tiles can make for a striking visual impact and decorative design feature. Think strong colors such as black, white and gold and unique geometric shapes, such as scallops and hexagons.

9. The bigger the better

'Large format tiles offer a striking appearance that’s guaranteed to turn heads when people enter a room,' says Topps Tiles ' Harriet Goodacre. 'Their considerable size provides a spacious feel thanks to minimal grout lines. They also bring a decadence that is associated with the most premium of hotels.'

There’s plenty of variety in large format porcelain tiles as they are available in multiple effects, such as iconic types of marble, mixing this trend with the natural effect one. 

Harriet adds, 'colored marble can provide greater variety, such as emerald greens or an indulgent black. Our Stadia Storm tile offers a regal style with its rich charcoal hue and high gloss finish.'

A top tile trend for 2023, large format tiles are ideal if you want to make a small bathroom or small kitchen feel bigger.

10. Tiles that blend indoors and out

Creating a seamless feel from indoors to outdoors has become a trend in itself, making it easier to move between the spaces and enhancing our connection with nature and the great outdoors.

As time goes on, so does the development of tile technology, and many of us are choosing to use the same tile material for both inside and outside for a smooth, united finish – as Hamish Smith from Ca'Pietra confirms below.

‘Use large format tiles to create a seamless blend between indoors and out. We are seeing that many homeowners are really looking to create one large living space, which is why choosing a large format tile really helps a home feel “as one”.

Are tile floors on trend for 2023?

Tile floors are on trend for 2023 in kitchens and bathrooms, though you are more likely than ever to see layering over it with rugs to soften them and to add an extra layer of interest.

Is subway tile out of fashion for 2023?

Ceramic tiles 2023 | TOP-5 Fashion trends in design

Decorative ceramic tiles are not only durable and practical material, they can transform any room beyond recognition. Shine and saturation of colors, ornaments and patterns, durability of service life, water-repellent surface - any glazed tile that is recommended to be installed on the walls of the kitchen, bathroom, hallway and other rooms can boast of this. As a floor covering, tiles with a relief surface are usually chosen, which will not allow anyone to slip and fall. If your choice is fashionable ceramic tiles 2023, then you should focus on modern ideas and trends, the design novelties of which were used in the previous year. There are no cardinal changes in the fashion for tiles, however, some nuances and trends are worth considering in more detail. nine0003

Fashion trends in the ceramic tile market 2023

With perfectly matched colors, tiles solve a variety of design tasks, and it turns out to be advantageous. For example, on dark tiles of saturated shades, you can see the reflection of the decor, furniture, objects, this not only looks advantageous (especially in the bathroom), but also visually increases the size of the room. Large geometric patterns on wall tiles can create a light, modern vibe in a kitchen. nine0003

Tip! If you are planning to buy fashionable ceramic tiles in 2023, taking into account modern ideas and trends, new designs, first of all think about the fact that you need to correctly use all parts of the available space.

It is necessary to completely abandon frilly and large furniture and plumbing, extra accessories. Modern interiors are natural and ergonomic, harmony is achieved through exquisite simplicity, noble restraint, the choice of high-quality materials, and the correct use of color schemes. This trend can be seen in most design options. nine0003

The latest trend towards the intelligent blending of several styles and the final overcoming of stereotypes and conventions inspires designers to use tiles not only in bathrooms and kitchens, but wherever it is necessary to diversify textures and revive surfaces.

This task is simplified today, as ceramic tiles have moved away from traditional shapes and colors, showing the enthusiastic buyer completely unseen examples of colors, qualities and shapes. nine0003

Focus on naturalness

The fashion trend for comprehensive naturalness first of all touched all finishing materials, in particular, beautiful ceramic tiles 2023 of unusual design appeared.

Feel free to choose options with an imitation of the texture of wood, any natural stone or marble, even concrete, and what is completely new - metal. Today, ceramic tiles quite realistically imitate the above, which contributes to its popularity. Sometimes the rougher the texture, the more advantageous it looks in the interior. nine0003

Imitation of the texture of natural wood is especially relevant, especially one that can only be distinguished by touch from its counterpart. Extravagant and flashy-looking tiles are much less common in the interior of the kitchen and bathroom in 2023.

Discreet and neutral colors in greyish and (especially) matte black are fashionable today. To give the room a more lively look, it is quite possible to choose, for example, textured tiles. nine0003

Important! Tile selection cannot be based on the conclusion: "I came to the store and I liked it." Everything in the room should be in perfect harmony - only in this way can you build not only a functional, but also a super-fashionable space. nine0003

Stone and marble effect tiles

marble effect tiles are very fashionable today, as they help to create strict minimalist interiors, give kitchens and bathrooms an irresistible look.

For example, you can combine such pseudo-marble for decorative wall decoration, complement the entire interior with small but exquisite details. Even decorative columns are acceptable, today no one will accuse you of an excessive desire for luxury. nine0003

You can give the interior a fashionable “naturalness” by imitating natural stone, especially since such fashionable ceramic tiles 2023 go well with chrome steel and glass.

Note! Fans of high-tech style and minimalism should know that stone effect tiles are an excellent choice for such an interior. Moreover, in the coming years, these styles are unlikely to lose their relevance.


One of the most advantageous and pleasant properties of modern ceramics, which imitates stone, is the fact that the tiles are matte in almost all cases, and at the same time also embossed. It is not only beautiful, but also non-slip, so practical owners can use it when decorating the hallway, and not just the kitchen or bathroom.

Volume and geometry

The use of ceramic tiles with distinguishable geometric patterns and ornaments for composing all kinds of compositions in interior decoration is also a fashionable technique today. You can give the surface visually additional volume, imitate three-dimensional space, give dynamics, make the interior modern. As a rule, young people tend to choose just such options.

Even the simplest ornament - say, bricks, a simple mosaic, stylization of fish scales or honeycombs in 3D-format looks simply amazing. The strictest proportions and thin, gracefully drawn lines are a demonstration of good taste, as geometry is still in trend. nine0003

Speaking about the volume, it is worth mentioning that ultra-fashionable is:

  • tiles with an imprint of a leaf pattern, and with a detailed drawing of all the veins;
  • patterns like frost on winter windows are popular; drawings of the type of diverging circles on the water;
  • imitation of raindrops (in our time, any familiar natural phenomena can become a motive for imitations).

Check out the latest 2023 tile collections from famous brands: they really will blow your mind. nine0003

White is still on trend

Nothing looks as perfect as a white kitchen or gleaming white bathroom. If you are tormented by deep doubts about which color scheme to prefer, then white tiles are still a win-win option for the interior.

White color is a feeling of comfort, light, lightness and freedom. The magic of white shades creates the illusion of infinity and transparency of space in the interior. nine0003

Psychologists believe that a person perceives the white color as a kind of new beginning, which has a positive effect on the psyche. Indeed, white tones never bother and do not irritate the eyes, which is why they are so appropriate in a room where a person wants to lie in the bath and relax at least for a few minutes.

Please note that white bathroom tiles come in a variety of shades, as this color is ambiguous. Barely noticeable bluish shades will make the interior colder, while the cream shade is much warmer, it all depends on what visual effect you want to achieve. nine0003

You can make your bathroom impeccably sterile and very cold, or vice versa - soft, cozy and warm. All this is achieved with the same color. It all depends on what kind of white bathroom tiles you decide to buy, and whether you will use other colors.

Tip! If you add brown shades, they will make the bathroom more comfortable, and blue - more "clean". Orange and yellow tones will add positive emotions, and the combination of white and black is an “timeless classic”. nine0003

Various accessories play a huge role

  1. If you don't tend to do repairs often, but like variety, then a white bathtub will be just a background for you.
  2. The color of furniture, towels, other details may change, and this will make the room look different every time.
  3. Today you can use accessories "under the tree" or under the natural stone. It is worth noting that white tiles in the bathroom can help you visually expand or, conversely, narrow the space. To do this, two walls need to be made light, and two dark. Thus, a narrow bathroom will appear a little wider. nine0052


Fashionable ceramic tiles 2023 (photo)

Small and narrow ceramic tiles are among the latest fashion trends. It looks a bit like a traditional mosaic, visually makes the ceiling higher in the room and is able to create an interesting and non-standard texture on the walls. However, there are other ultra-fashionable novelties.

Hexagon tiles are trendy

Today, the most fashionable form of ceramic tiles is the hexagon. The popularity of tiles in the form of a regular hexagon, definitely, in 2023 breaks all records. The shapes of such tiles and their sizes can expand their traditional range within a single collection.

It is worth noting that this is new, nothing more than a return to the historical traditions of the 18th century, while this form, on the contrary, was very common. By the way, it is considered ultra-fashionable to use large hexagonal porcelain tiles on the floor, especially if the interior design is decided in vintage style. nine0003

Another original novelty - puzzles made of ceramic tiles of various geometric shapes, and without a seam, but in this version it is important to choose the right colors.

The use of a base (gray or white) in this version is almost mandatory, then soft blue shades, yellow, green tones, graphite, as well as golden or brown shades are added. By the way, the color of a dusty rose is fashionable today, it looks unsurpassed on gray. nine0003

Tiles are not just large, but very large

Not so long ago, amateurs found large tiles only where they offered materials for finishing industrial premises or public places.

Today the situation has completely changed: not just large tiles, but very large ones, even huge ones, are very fashionable. Product manufacturers create entire original collections that are dedicated to large-format ceramic tiles.

The main feature of large ceramic tiles is their distinctive ability to give the surfaces to be coated not only more austere, but also more sophisticated. However, a large format always requires additional space.

For example, in a small bathroom or kitchen, corridor, such tiles will have to be repeatedly cut and carefully adjusted, which will ruin the original idea.

  • Large ceramic tiles in the interior has been in fashion catalogs for several years now, for this reason it now has its own decorative and quality standards.

New - Concrete Look Tiles

After modern interior styles such as loft, hi-tech, minimalism and even art deco came into fashion and became stronger, it became necessary to imitate concrete details and structures.

The fact is that laying natural concrete is not only a very difficult task, but also very dusty. Therefore, the use of ceramic tiles 2023, imitating real concrete, is an excellent option, an optimal and convenient way out. nine0003

Note! Pseudo-concrete (in the form of tiles) will not only help to avoid the mentioned inconveniences that are associated with laying the material, but also provide reliability, ease of maintenance, modern look of the surface.

Tile is a durable material that can withstand heavy loads, impervious to moisture and steam, non-flammable. The most pleasant advantage of a tile is how easily any pollution is removed from its surface. nine0003

Walls and floors decorated with tiles can be washed with any chemical cleaner that no other finishing material can be proud of, and if you also take into account the above tips, your kitchen or bathroom will not only be cozy and practical yet stylish.

Natural theme

Bathroom tiles of 2022 continue to embody all kinds of natural textures and colors in an eco-style. This includes wood motifs and plants.

• Wood motifs

Wood effect porcelain stoneware works great in the bathroom as a substitute for natural wood. Where the wood will deteriorate from moisture and rot, porcelain stoneware slabs will remain intact and last more than 15 years.

Wood look porcelain tiles in bathrooms can be used for floors and walls. The surface of such porcelain stoneware is made with a structural relief coating, indistinguishable in appearance from real wood. It is enough to run your hand over the surface of the tile to make sure that this coating is very similar to natural wood. At the same time, the slip coefficient of such plates due to the relief coating is low. Wood-look porcelain stoneware is ideal as a floor covering not only in the bathroom, but also in the kitchen, hallway and other rooms of the apartment. Wherever wood is used, everywhere it will give an atmosphere of comfort and home warmth. nine0379

Such decorations in interior decoration correspond to the design tone of 2022 and allow you to add elements of eco-style to minimalist interiors, especially in the spirit of the Japandi fashion trend. nine0094

Small tiles

Small tiles for bathrooms and toilets are becoming popular again. Installation of such tiles may take longer than usual. Therefore, you can choose ceramics in a standard format, but with an image in the form of a pattern of smaller tiles. Such a pattern can be seen in the photo of the Cement collection.

In finishing, it is better to use plates of a neutral or pale white scale. It is recommended to choose white, beige or cream color. Here you can add metal borders with a golden or silver tint. nine0003

Minimalism

The use of unusual textures, geometry or a lot of mosaics is not suitable for interiors in this style. Uniform textures and shades are welcome here. In strict minimalism, it is permissible to use no more than 3 colors without eye-catching decor. Only sometimes designers allow themselves to add blotches of other styles to minimalism or dilute minimalist interiors with a brighter range. For a minimalist design, it is better to use a classic tile with a glossy or matte glaze. It will always be in place to use porcelain stoneware on the floor with the same surfaces. nine0094

Separate mirror

In Russia, bathrooms are not large, so not all interior trends that are popular in Europe take root here. If dimensions allow, consider a large, expressive bathroom mirror. This new fashion trend has recently emerged with an eye on the future, when we have smart mirrors in our homes with automatic lighting and built-in clocks. Such an element of the interior can be interestingly combined with tiled ceramics. nine0379

Transparent shower

To create more space in the bathroom, transparent tempered glass shower enclosures are gaining momentum. This shower model fills the space with air and adds dynamics. In a large bathroom, a contrasting floor and wall finish is suitable for this area. In a smaller bathroom, it is better to use a uniform finish so that the shower stall blends into the space.

The latest 3D printing technology brings the look of natural stone to porcelain stoneware slabs. This is also facilitated by the technology of carving, when a relief of natural stone is applied to the slabs. Even by touch, it will not be easy for you to distinguish artificial material from natural. Being a material of artificial origin, porcelain stoneware remains environmentally friendly and surpasses natural stone in many operational parameters.

Golden elements

Nickel-plated and chrome-plated fixtures and fittings remain popular. But over the past year, buyers began to give more preference to brass and "gilded" shades.

Shades of blue and turquoise are suitable here. The color of the sea wave is especially relevant in the new season. The tiles of this color can be used as background for walls. At the same time, a soap dish, towel hangers or a toilet paper holder are turned into accent details, choosing these items in the form of sea pearls, shells or pebbles. nine0094

"Residential" interior

In 2022, designers recommend abandoning cold utilitarian shades and looking towards the most lived-in interior.

Tile cladding will help complement this comfortable environment with warm colors and delicate floral decorations. nine0094
