Articles Hot Fireplace Tile Trends

As the weather turns colder, it's time to get cozy. And a statement fireplace can really turn up the heat and be a showstopper in your room. Tiled fireplaces are huge this year, and you can make this look work for your home, regardless of your style. Plus, tile is durable, easy to clean and doesn’t have the fire safety issues other materials may have. Color, pattern, texture — the choices are unlimited. Let these designs inspire your fireplace ideas.

How bold can you go? These looks aren’t for the faint of heart! Daring patterned tiles or a black and white color palette can work together beautifully. Patterned tiles with a pop of color effortlessly complement a breezy bohemian theme. Bright, colorful tiles with a simple pattern will create a wow-worthy look from floor to ceiling.

If your abode is filled with clean lines, metallic accents, and perhaps an industrial vibe, this look is for you. Large porcelain panels or natural stone slabs surrounding a fireplace can create an incredibly sleek look. Try tiling in the inside of your fireplace in enduring herringbone patterns using stone, porcelain or ceramic tile and mosaics.

Rustic homes have an emphasis on rugged, natural beauty. They welcome simple and earthy colors, and have an organic warmth. For a modern yet rustic look, combine a distressed wood mantel with brick tile.
