Choosing Wall And Floor Tiles

Blame Instagram accounts like ‘I Have This Thing With Floors’, blame lifestyle bloggers and their passion for all things marble and terrazzo, blame the fact that Lisbon has become the millennial city break destination du jour: whatever the root cause, tiles are very much having an interiors moment. Whether your tastes tend towards intricate mosaic styles, painted-on patterns or classic subway tiles, here’s what you need to know before attempting to recreate a Pinterest-worthy look in your own home…

So. How do I choose my tiles?

As is usual with interiors, it’s about striking a balance between considering the space you have and your own personal taste (with a smattering of practicality thrown in, too).

‘In terms of colours, crisp sleek neutral shades in marble tiles work best for bathrooms,’ advises interior designer Katharine Pooley. ‘For kitchens, I also like to use neutral colors as this provides a good base and it means you can easily update the décor by changing accessories. I would experiment more with shape and colour for wall tiles.’
