Using Tiles for Home Decoration

Some of the interior design ideas that can be achieved using different kinds of tiles are here below!

Create accent walls with tiles

Creating an accent wall with tiles can add a lot of character and visual appeal to any room. Whether you want to spice up a boring old room or add drama to an already stunning area, tiling only a specific wall or area in your room is a beautiful way to decorate any space.

Accent walls are particularly stunning in living rooms or bedrooms.

Elevate your kitchen backsplashes

Using the right tiles with the right layout for a kitchen backsplash can transform the way your kitchen looks. Decorative tiles and most mosaics  are great if you want to create a fun atmosphere. If you want to go for something a bit more sophisticated, ceramics or subway tiles can do the trick.

 

Play around with contrasts

Lay contrasting tiles on the floors and walls to create a uniquely gorgeous bathroom that stands out. There are so many tile options to choose from for this, but you might want to work with an interior designer or a tile supplier to select tiles that complement each other despite their contrasting textures or colours.

 

Connect indoor and outdoor spaces

One of the easiest ways to blend the indoor and outdoor is by using the same tiles in both spaces. Whether it is on an extended balcony, patio or deck, creating an extension of the room can look gorgeous with tiles. This design idea can even make the room look bigger. Make sure you choose durable tiles that have good traction and can handle severe weather conditions while implementing this decor idea though. Tiles like porcelain, natural stone, slate and granite are good options.

 

Create a rug effect

You can use patterned decorative tiles to create a rug like effect in your living rooms or kitchens. As beautiful as this can look, it also serves functional purposes. Tiles are a lot easier to clean and maintain as compared to rugs, which can come in handy especially if you have children and pets. Tiles are also more permanent and long lasting than rugs.

 

Divide spaces with tiles

Using two or three types of tiles to create distinct spaces within the same room can look exquisite. You can choose tiles with different colours, patterns or materials for this.

Trending Tile Designs of 2024

Interior designers and homeowners are loving and appreciating a few chosen tile designs this year. These trending designs of 2024 can be your inspiration for your next interior decoration or home renovation project.

 

Large Format Tiles

Minimalistic and sophisticated spaces seem to be a big head turner in 2024 and this look can be achieved quite easily with large format tiles. Not only can these tiles create a spacious and clean appearance, but their versatility and durability make them highly functional as well.

Large format tiles also make rooms look more open and airier, helping smaller rooms look bigger.

 

The Classic Monochrome

The beauty of monochromes never goes out of style. You can create this look by using black subway tiles with black grouting, mixing black and white checkered or mosaic tiles or using patterned tiles with both colours.

Look at some of the classic black and white tiles available at Royal Tiles here.

 

Zellige Tiles

These tiles can give your home a certain Mediterranean look. They have a warm rustic look that offers a comforting vibe. The best part is these tiles can look amazing in any part of the house. You can use them for kitchen backsplashes, bathroom backsplashes or wall and living room walls.

 

Deep Green Tiles

Deep green tiles are an absolute royalty. They have this unique quality that can make a space look chic, classy, elegant and relaxing all at once. Perhaps the serenity of nature is captured in the colour green or maybe it’s the richness that the colour carries that captivates the human eye. Whatever it is, deep green tiles can make your space stand out exquisitely.

It is worth noting that though this colour has an inexplicable charm, deep green tiles might be most suitable for bathrooms.

 

Timeless Terracotta Tiles

Earthy and natural tones are a popular choice for homeowners in 2024. Terracotta tiles are ideal for bringing the warmth of nature into your home. These tiles are also available in multiple designs and patterns so you can choose among a variety of options to create a personalized look.

 

Decorative Tiles

If you want to create an artistic space with intricate designs, decorative tiles are your best friend. These tiles aren’t for minimalistic decor lovers, but for people who want to bring a fun and dramatic vibe with lots of character to their home.
