Tile & floor.
Tile brings style to any room and combining shapes, colors and finishes adds elegance and performance.
Modern tile is not only waterproof and easy to clean it provides a new palette for your design vision. Done right, it provides visual interest through color, size and texture. The application of modern tile can expand or contract a bathroom without changing its footprint.
There are four typical ways to match tile to your space, including:
Vertical installation increases height – install rectangular tile vertically instead of horizontally to make the walls look higher. An excellent complement to glass shower doors or a new walk-in shower.
Mix and match half way up – using darker tile on the bottom half of a wall grounds the space and makes the room appear smaller. Darker colors add depth to the lower half of a wall and the two-toned effect makes a large bathroom seem “cozier.”
Emphasis on depth – use bold tiles on the end wall of a narrow bathroom creates an inviting destination distracting from the lack of width. The size and shape of wall tile should contrast with floor tile and work smoothly together.
Long tile stretches space – install long tiles like wood-look tile planks horizontally on the wall to stretch the space visually. Highlights of glass or mirrored tile add cool effects, too.
