Tile is a design alternative to paint and wallpaper, and adding tile to a wall for accent can transform your room and add some dimension to your living space. Accent walls can serve as a focal point or can be used to highlight a certain part of the room such as a fireplace or bathtub.
2018 is here and we all know that a new year means new trends. If you are thinking about remodeling your home this new year, this is the time to start planning. To help you out a little bit, we have compiled a list of home trends that you can expect to see in 2018.
Medallion tiles are intricate in their own nature. These tiles are made to be a focal point in each room they are added to. They are the perfect way to add that “wow” factor without being too over the top.
Choosing new flooring for your remodeling or new construction home comes with a multitude of flooring options. One of the top options for homeowners today is to use tile for new flooring. Even more popular is to use porcelain tiles that resemble natural hardwood. There are a lot of benefits to using tile, and with the wood-look tiles appearance so closely mimicking the appearance of hardwood, the benefits keep adding up. Not only can you use tiles to cover your kitchen or bathroom areas, you can also use wood-look tile for your entire living space. Even better yet, you can use wood-look tile on walls as creative and complimentary accents.
There is new twist in classic bathroom design thanks to traditional materials, such as marble and subway tiles. A more sophisticated and updated esthetic in a timeless design is being created by blending natural stone, quartz, porcelain, and ceramic tiles. If you desire a luxury bathroom retreat and have contemporary, transitional, or modern style then this updated classic design is for you. Timeless quality and design is highly sought after by homeowners and buyers. It is important to consider ever changing trends when selecting tiles to use as a backdrop in your bathroom. The goal is to select a tile color scheme that is universal and allows for a multitude of paint color trends to pair well or be complemented by it. Classic materials such as natural stone tile is a wise investment for your home. So what are the top three traditional tiles in bathroom design right now? Subway tiles, white stone tiles, and hexagon tiles.
