FORGING DESIGN HORIZONS: TILE TRENDS UNVEILED
TREND #1: METAL & TEXTILES MAKE A STATEMENT
Metal and textile-inspired tiles redefine sophistication. The allure of metal, evolving beyond stainless, now boasts richer offerings like gunmetal and pewter, available in matte or light polishes. Authentic metal-look tiles, with unique influences like metal-infused concrete, stand out. On the textile front, linens, tweeds, tartans, and intricate patterns breathe life into design, merging seamlessly with concrete and stone mashups.
TREND #2: THE ETERNAL APPEAL OF STONE
Marble, the timeless favorite, continues to captivate with white marble leading the way. However, expect a surge in popularity for colored marbles like grey, beige, black, and brown. Monochromatic stones, such as limestone and slate, with minimal movement, take the spotlight. Bluestone, with its bluish tone, rides the wave of the blue trend, making a significant impact.
TREND #3: WALL TILE REIMAGINED
Walls become canvases for bold expressions with an emphasis on wall tiles. Feature walls, accent walls, and tiles on walls take center stage. Expect a burst of bold colors, especially the resurgence of blue, along with textures that add depth. 3D tiles redefine the wall aesthetic, featuring geometric shapes, natural leaf patterns, and linear structures that transcend mere visual appeal. Embrace the era of oversized wall tiles, from large-format 8 x 24 to colossal 70-inch porcelain slabs, as commercial designers embrace the grandeur of expansive walls.
