Bathroom trends change year in and year out, but there is always one constant staple in each bathroom, tiles. The uses for tile in bathrooms are endless and because of this, we have seen a huge demand for specific tiles in our 2017 bathroom designs.
The expert bathroom designers at Crystal Bathrooms have put together their top 5 tile trends for 2017. This will help to give you some fantastic ideas for your own bathroom re-design and renovation.
Subway tiles were a big hit in 2016 which has continued on well into 2017. Subway tiles bring a really clean and modern look to your bathroom. Many homeowners love this look so much they have included subway tiles into their kitchen designs. While we will continue to see subway tiles be used throughout 2017, keep an eye out for a smaller and thinner tile that looks especially sleek.
If you are worried about your subway tiles becoming dated then don’t be. Subway tiles have been around for years and have become a timeless classic. Sick of seeing boring subway tile walls? Try running subway tiles vertically or a herringbone design to shake things up and add some dimension.
Patterned tiles have become a huge hit in 2017. They are fantastic if you want to add a feature wall or floor. There are so many patterns to choose from that you will be spoilt for choice. Don’t fret about trying to find a pattern that goes together, some of the best bathroom designs we have seen have featured mismatched patterns.Want to incorporate a pattern but not sure how to go about it?
