As we spend more time at home, many of us are undertaking renovations to create more beautiful and functional spaces. One affordable way to refresh a room is with tile, which can have a big impact on your kitchen, bathroom, living room and entryways.

Drawing inspiration from Pinterest boards, architecture magazines and global styles, our design experts share the most popular tile trends and how you can realistically incorporate them into your home and design projects.

3D effects tile

One of the biggest trends is dimensional tiles, which add depth and visual interest to a monochromatic colour palette. Get creative and mix and match to create a unique textural feature that defines your space. You can use this style in a feature wall, fireplace surround, kitchen backsplash or all-over bathroom tile.

Wood-look porcelains

Many of us are craving a connection to the outdoors during these challenging times, and our interiors are reflecting this desire with more natural elements and greenery. Thanks to innovative new materials, you can now enjoy the gorgeous look of hardwood flooring with the resiliency of porcelain. Our impressive selection of porcelain tiles with a wide variety of wood finishes can be used in your living room or family room, as well as high-moisture areas like the kitchen and bathroom.

Mosaic tile

Often referred to as works of art, mosaics can dramatically transform a space with unique patterns, designs and colour combinations. Mosaic tiles can be made of a variety of different materials, including porcelain, ceramic, glass or a combination of all three. Ceramic mosaics may be glazed or unglazed, and finishes can be matte or glossy.

Express your personality with our expansive selection of mosaics – whether your style is contemporary, traditional, serene, luxurious, exotic or quirky. The variety of mosaics and the many ways to use and incorporate them make them a popular choice for accent pieces in any room.

Tile patterns

Subtle changes in prints, mixing of patterns, size of tile, colour and installation style can have a major effect on the overall design, mood and outcome of your room. While creating patterns with tiles and using printed tiles isn’t new, today there are more choice than ever before. Whether you want to evoke the old-world charm of Italy or Spain or the rustic aesthetic of a modern farmhouse, the right tile patterns can help you achieve any look.
