Bathroom Tile Trends to Consider For Your Bathroom Remodel

Psssst....Want to know what the hottest trends in bathroom tiles are at the moment?  

If you’re remodelling your bathroom, tiles are one of the most effective - and can be one of the cheapest - ways of making a sensational style statement.   We’ve done some detective work to uncover the top international tile trends for you for 2017, so have a look at how your tile style can really shine in your new bathroom!

1. Complex colour

Whilst neutrals and whites are traditional favourites for bathrooms and will always be timeless classics, coloured tiles are making a huge comeback.  Technological advancements have also enabled the development of new designs and materials, opening up huge scope and variety for designers to explore.   Darker shades of grey, black and navy blue will be popular, bringing a sense of warmth and vibrancy in the bathroom and in keeping with the current emphasis on bringing the ‘outside in’, we’ll be seeing lots of green tiles in various shades and textures.

2. Rich patterns

If you’re renovating your bathroom, why not consider a patterned tile?  It can add variety and movement into your space and will be right on trend - plus you don’t need to tile a huge space to achieve a ‘wow’ factor.  Rich and busy patterns were all the rage at the recent international trade fairs, with playful combinations and vibrant Moroccan-style patterned tiles making a big statement. 

3. Timber tiles

Wood-inspired tiles are a clever way of bringing timber into the bathroom without worrying about moisture issues.  Earthy naturals will continue to feature prominently in bathrooms and these wood-inspired tiles look and feel like the real deal.

4. Shaped tiles

Shaped tiles are eye-catching and thought-provoking AND they’re hugely popular right now.  It’s now hip to be square, with many designers choosing to lay square tiles in a brick pattern to create an impactful but tasteful feature.  Hexagonal tiles are another dominant trend.  If you’ve been looking at blogs and magazines to get inspiration and ideas for your bathroom renovation, you will have noticed how this interesting and creative shape is making its presence known, from small glass mosaic tiles to large, bold ones on feature walls.  Even triangle-shaped tiles are experiencing a resurgence in popularity and with so many design possibilities in terms of layout, you’re bound to find one that suits your bathroom renovation project.

5. Creative layouts

If your bathroom upgrade has a budget constraint, then you should consider creative layouts.  In fact, more and more bathroom designers are using inexpensive tiles in different layouts such as herringbone, chevrons, pinwheels and even rectangular tiles laid on the vertical to create a modern, fresh and luxurious look without breaking the bank.
