Every Bathroom Tile is an Important Element in Your Bathroom Design.
Your bathroom tile design offers you the flexibility to create almost any effect in your bathroom interior design.
With the vast choice of tiles available, you can mimic other surfaces or materials without forfeiting the practicability that tiles offer for both walls and floors.
More than just a practical floor or wall covering, tiles can be skillfully used to:
- Create a harmonious palette
- Direct the eye to a focal area
- Add texture, color - or both
- Showcase your unique style
- Optically change the dimensions of a room
- Create a mood or support a decorating theme
- Introduce a luxurious touch
...and more!
An (almost) Tile-less Elegance

Uniquely Yours
You may have the budget to commission custom tiles for your bathroom.
Or you may have the creative juices flowing to create your own accent tiles - or use standard field tiles in a unique way.
Here are a few custom Tile Ideas for Bathrooms to get you going.
Get Tactile with Tiles
The bathroom is the one area in the house where hard surfaces really get in contact with our skin.
This is your opportunity to play around with varied textures or to introduce a surprise element to stimulate the senses: both visually and to the touch.
Bathroom Mosaic Tile is especially easy to manipulate.
All Eyes on The Tiles
Successful bathroom designs use the shapes, placement, colors and even the grout lines of bathroom ceramic tiles to lead the eye to a well chosen spot.
You can be subtle or extremely bold in your approach.
It is the clever use of Bathroom Tile Patterns that can make all the difference.
Optical Illusions
Light colored, reflective tiles will generally make a room appear more spacious than darker matt tiles. Square tiles placed on the diagonal can also "stretch" the dimensions of an area.
Mirrors are a must have in any bathroom and they especially contribute to enhance the perception of space in a bathroom.

Just a Touch of Luxury
Accent tiles come in so many varieties, but quite often with a high price tag. There is no need though to use them extensively.
Take a good look at the overall design of your bathroom and decide where you can use them with maximum effect.

A Final Practical Tip:
When buying your floor AND wall tiles, do buy a few extra and store them. Tiles do get damaged from time to time and it will be hugely frustrating to find you need a discontinued bathroom tile.
