We don’t know about you, but the New Year always gives us the urge to redecorate a room. Or two. Or three. Or all of them…
We’ve peered into our crystal tile to bring you our top ten tile trends for 2019 to get you bang on trend with the latest interior design fashions if you’re planning on refreshing your home over the next few months.
Tile Trends for 2019
Think bold, individual and unusual when it comes to choosing your tiles – here are our predictions of the top tile trends for 2019 accompanied by some savvy suggestions.
Tile Shapes for 2019
Geometric tiles
Geometric patterns never go out of style with their combination of clean lines and interesting shapes.
Unleash your inner creativity and make an individual mark on walls or floors, in large sections or small details. Try Buckingham, one of our most versatile tiles for a funky feature.
Hexagon/Honeycomb
Finding rectangles too run of the mill or squares too samey? We’re in love with the shape of honeycomb – especially these quirky and stylish Hexagon Mosaic tiles.
Get hexagonally happy by making a six-sided statement with an on-trend design that will always look interesting and stylish at the same time.
Long, narrow metro tiles
Keep on the straight and narrow in a good way with these Avila tiles, a longer cousin of the usual metro tile, to create a statement subway effect with a twist.
Go homely with horizontal, dare to go diagonal or venture into vertical. This leads us on to….
Exclusive and modern bathtub in the bathroom
Vertical tiling
The only way is up for 2019 with tiling being turned 90 degrees for a visually-appealing vertical effect. The classic Metro is the perfect candidate to see things in portrait.
Adding extra length in the pattern is great for shorter spaces to give the illusion of height in rooms that wish they were a little bit taller.
Tile Trends for 2019 – Colours
Living Coral
We love the gorgeous peachy pink Living Coral, the Pantone colour of 2019. It’s warm, cheerful and will work well with greys, browns and whites.
If that’s a little too bright for your room, try lighter orange or softer pink to add wonderfully warm hues that will still wow.
Moody deep green
Don’t be afraid of the dark – make your neighbours green with envy with gorgeous deep green tones in 2019, like these glamorous Glamour Tiles.
This colour will look glorious used in small sections and paired with light tiles and/or paint to give a warm and striking effect.
Spiced honey
We can’t get enough of the Dulux colour of the year ‘Spiced Honey’, a caramel tone with wood, sand and amber tones that will really spice up your life.
Looking for complementary tiles? Try our Maryland tiles for floors.
Tile Trends for Rooms
PATTERNED BACKSPLASHES
Whilst we love a simple, monochromatic kitchen, we like a little more conversation in the kitchen when it comes to splashbacks.
Go for a snazzier sink with a patterned backsplash, and the bolder the better in our book! These Regent Victorian tiles give you the chance to create a truly unique look.
Bold Black Bathrooms
Create a little black magic in the bathroom by going bold with black. This dark shade screams indulgence and high-end sophistication, and will give you the feel of an extravagant spa in your own home.
Add some contrast with white, bright or metallic furnishings or accessories, or choose tiles with a little sparkle, like these glittery Strauss floor tiles.
Light wood effect floors
Wood effect floor tiles give you the look of wood without the steeper price and higher maintenance of timber.
Light up any room with a softer shade such as these Grey Porcelain tiles to give a lighter effect you can balance by going heavier on the wall or furniture colours.
