Make A Statement With Mosaic Ceramic Tiles

If you’re thinking about updating and renovating your home, consider using mosaic tiles to make a personal and unique statement to any room. Using mosaics in interior design has always been fashionable and even more so now that the trend in 2020 is to be bold and colourful. 

Here are a few tips to incorporate mosaic ceramic tiles in your home renovation:

1. Mosaic Colour and Pattern

One of the main reasons that mosaic ceramic tiles are so easy to decorate with is that they come in a wide variety of colours and patterns. For a more conservative look use tiles in soft colours with a simple pattern. Be bold and daring by choosing bright and colourful tiles with interesting patterns. There are no rules to using mosaics – mix and match until you find a design that inspires you.

2. Bathroom Feature Wall

One of the classic areas of your home to use mosaic tiles is in the bathroom. Mosaic tiles can be installed on one main wall to add a dramatic and sophisticated style. Another option is to tile the entire wall behind a freestanding bathtub so that it quickly becomes the focal point of the room. Other areas to tile as a feature wall include behind the vanity as a backsplash or on a full shower wall. 

3. Small Tiles for a Unique Pattern

Small mosaic tiles can bring an old-world charm to a room and allow you to be as expressive as you want. Both miniature mosaic squares and tiny hexagon tiles are back in vogue this year in a big way. A great option is to use larger ceramic tiles around the outside edge of the wall, with smaller mosaic tiles in the centre as a main area of focus. If you want to be really creative, come up with an elaborate design using bright and colourful tiles laid out in an intricate layout.

4. Mosaic Flooring

Mosaic tiles aren’t just for walls – use ceramic tiles on the floor in creative ways in bathrooms, hallways, kitchens, and in the entryway to your home. Depending on your style, installing tiles in a basic square pattern will give a room a balanced look while laying mosaics in a geometric design can give a more modern feel. For shorter hallways, mosaic tiles in a herringbone pattern can elongate the hall as your eye travels along the tiles.

5. Kitchens with Character

Most families spend more time in the kitchen than in any other room in their home. Using small or large ceramic mosaic tiles as a full backsplash is a good way to add character and dimension without remodeling the entire room. Mosaics can also tie together all the colours and finishes in your kitchen when you use similar colour tones. Consider adding a few mosaic tiles into your kitchen flooring to tie the theme in throughout the room.
