Articles Tile Talk: Accenting with Tile
January 9, 2025With an array of colors, textures, and designs available, tiles are a versatile design tool in creating visual impact in any area. Whether you’re looking to create an artistic statement, highlight a feature, or create a sense of flow, tiles can accentuate different parts of your home beautifully.
In this blog, we'll explore different ways to use tiles as accents to elevate your space, from vibrant mosaics to minimalist designs. Let’s jump in!
Molding
Utilizing tile as molding is a great alternative to traditional crown molding, especially in the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room areas as these are prone to moisture.
Stove Backsplash
If you want to incorporate a focal point in the kitchen area, this area is a perfect place to add tile whether it’s a mosaic design, adding a splash of color, or getting graphic with patterned tiles—you can make a statement particularly if the kitchen is one of your favorite rooms.
Entryway
Make your home instantly welcoming with tile in your entryway. It’s another area where you can be as creative as you’d like while integrating durability and easy maintenance.
Fireplace
Whether it's the cozy hearth or a stylish fireplace surround, tile can bring a distinctive, personalized touch to this space.
Bathroom
A backsplash at the bathroom counterspace, a trim around your shower area, or a shower niche are all great places to feature tiles. We spend on average 30 minutes daily in this part of our home; so why not make it a distinctive yet relaxing area as we get ready for the day?
Unique Areas
Consider adding a stylish surround for your mirror, sprucing up your kitchen island, or even crafting a tiled pathway. There are so many possibilities—let your creativity take center stage!
Accenting with tiles can transform any space into a personalized statement. Whether you're looking to make a bold artistic proclamation, highlight a specific feature, or enhance the overall flow of a room, tiles offer endless possibilities. With the right choice, tiles can elevate your space or home and bring a fresh, vibrant look to any area.
