2. Make a Bold Statement Wall

Made of porcelain, this graphic patterned tile is as durable as it is chic–perfect for stylish households with pets or kids.

4. Choose Stone-Look for Durable Luxury

If you love the luxurious look of natural stone but want a low-maintenance material that can withstand heavy foot traffic, durable, easy-to-clean marble-look porcelain or ceramic is the perfect solution. This stylish entryway, designed by House of Shima, features the Keystone Grey tile. The striking grey and white veining creates a sense of movement that complements both the cool grey of the table and the warm brown wooden stairs and banister.

5. Small Entryway Foyer Tile Ideas

The entrance to your home doesn’t need to be grand to make an impact. Here, the Star tile creates visual separation between the foyer and the rest of the house.

6. Keep it Classy With Black-and-White Tile

Like a well-tailored tuxedo, black-and-white tile exudes style and sophistication. This sleek and chic room, designed by Haus of Rowe, features the Laura Ashley Wicker Charcoal floor tile. The dainty, abstract florals add a touch of playfulness to this formal space. Shop black-and-white tile for more classy design options.

7. Choose Tumbled Marble for Rustic Luxury

8. Win Your Design With Checkerboard

Checkerboard is a classic design that doesn’t require much space to create a big sensation.

The post 9 Inviting Small Entryway Tile Ideas for 2025 appeared first on The Tile Shop Blog.

1. Maintain a Minimalist Palette

Minimalism is a key tenet of Japandi design, and the right tile can help you maintain a tranquil, uncluttered space. A soft neutral tile is a great base to your design, allowing you to layer in other colors and materials. This bathroom features the Lanse Matte White Picket tile, pairing the crisp white tile with metallic gold accents and a soft grey sink. Though this space has few adornments, the mix of vertical and diagonal lines in the picket tile adds interest and a sense of movement.

2. Incorporate Greenery

Japandi emphasizes a connection with the natural world, and incorporating plants and other natural elements into your design will help create a sense of serenity. Soft, earthy greens function as a neutral color, and nature-inspired decor–when used sparingly–is encouraged. The Morris & Co. Hawkdale Willow Olive tile features elegant leaf designs that are both decorative and minimalist. Pair this tile with the corresponding Hawkdale Pure Chalk tile to add neutral space between the designs.

3. Choose Warm Neutrals

The Scandinavian concept of hygge refers to the feeling of coziness and contentment, which is incorporated into Japandi through warm colors and materials. This cozy nook, designed by Christy Bloom Design & Build, features the Laura Ashley Wicker Dove Grey tile. The soft greige coloring complements the wooden cabinets for a soothing and inviting space. Shop brown and beige tiles to achieve this warm neutral aesthetic.

4. Embrace Imperfections

The Japanese concept of wabi-sabi celebrates the imperfect–the very quality that makes our authentic Zellige tile so compelling. Each tile is crafted, glazed and painted by hand, resulting in a unique look from piece to piece. With Japandi’s emphasis on handmade and authentic materials, Zellige tile perfectly encapsulates its ethos, however, if you’re interested in a tile that’s a little more uniform (and affordable), check out our wide selection of handmade-look tile.

5. Use Wood-Look Tile for a Natural Appearance

While authentic materials are essential to Japandi design, they might not be practical for every space in your home. Hardwood is commonly associated with Japandi, but to get this aesthetic in high-traffic or damp areas, wood-look tile is a great alternative. This serene shower features the Nidus Decor Mix tile. The blonde wood look and textured surface (which would be difficult to replicate in real wood) create the soothing atmosphere expected in Japandi but in a material suited to the space.

6. Combine Rustic and Refined Elements

Achieve a look that seamlessly combines the rustic Scandinavian aesthetic with the grace and elegance of Japanese style, with natural stone. The veining inherent to marble, slate and travertine creates a one-of-a-kind character that embodies the spirit of Japandi design. This living room, designed by Esslinger Design Co., features the Legno Geometric tile on the fireplace surround. The architectural style stone mosaic provides texture, while the naturally occurring color variation gives this space authentic visual interest.

7. Use Texture

Since Japandi mostly adheres to a warm neutral color palette, texture is key to creating interest to your space. A fluted, or 3D tile, adds a tactile element to your walls that will stimulate the senses while providing a unique visual element. This tranquil entryway features the Khali Flash Off White tile, the subtle pattern of soft, flowing raised lines adds depth to the space, with a design that changes effect as light moves through the room.

8. Embrace Elegant Symmetry

Japandi favors clean lines and symmetry for a sense of harmony. Subway tile arranged in straight vertical or horizontal stacks, or neatly aligned mosaics like the Home Kit-Kat Milk tile used in this kitchen, designed by Yellow Brick Home, will achieve this aesthetic. The long, skinny tiles of this handmade-look mosaic form smooth horizontal and vertical lines, giving this space an orderly feel, while the slight variations in color and texture between the pieces provide an organic appeal.

Whatever your style, The Tile Shop has the tile, tools and expert advice to help you take your project from design to completion. Explore stunning tile ideas for every room, or schedule a free design consultation to get started.

The post Year In Review: Top 10 Bathrooms of 2024 appeared first on The Tile Shop Blog.

1. Hotel-Inspired Interiors

Luxurious, serene and universally appealing, hotel-style interiors make every day feel like a vacation. This five-star shower features the Pisa Oro wall tile matched with the Kasbah Star Bone and Terracotta Cross for a rich and pampering space. Choose luxe marble- or handmade-look tiles in a warm, neutral palette to achieve this look.

2. Celebration of Pattern

Whether graphic and bold, or soft and floral, we predict that patterns will be gracing more walls and floors. Durable and easy to clean, porcelain and ceramic tiles are perfect for showcasing a favorite print–especially in high-traffic or high-mess areas like a kitchen backsplash. Shop our extensive selection of patterned tile to find a design you’ll love.

3. Picket Tile

A new twist on traditional subway tile, picket tile has gained popularity in recent years, and we foresee it continuing to add pointed charm for years to come. Shop our full selection of picket tile to find a style that fits your space.

4. Curves

Sofas aren’t the only traditionally boxy items turning to rounded edges; curved tile has fewer sharp points, creating a softness to your interior design. Scallops, waves and penny rounds–with their soothing silhouettes–will be featured in more spaces. Here, the Gem by Alison Victoria tile shows how the curved edge enlivens a space with gentle movement.

5. A Focus On Artisan Designs

Both interior design and fashion saw a renewed enthusiasm for handcrafted goods in 2024, and we expect this trend toward authenticity and quality to continue into the new year. Crafted, painted and glazed by hand, each Zellige tile adds one-of-a-kind character to your home. This kitchen, designed by Fox Homes and featuring the Zellige White Gloss tile, shows how the slight variations from piece to piece come together to create an elegant space.

6. Eclecticism

Artfully mixed patterns, colors and materials are what make eclectic design so intriguing. This style rewards the bold and unconventional, as seen in the uniquely patterned Big Sur tile from celebrity designer Jeffrey Alan Marks. The abstract layers of glossy blue patina top a cream-colored matte base, giving the appearance of glazed pottery. Shop Big Sur in its two distinct colorways: Sea Spray (green) and Off the Hook (shown).

7. Japandi

A harmonious blend of Japanese and Scandinavian design, Japandi places significance on soothing colors, high-quality materials and a connection with nature. Choose warm neutral colors and wood-look tile (such as the Nidus Decore Mix tile shown here) to create your personal Zen retreat.

8. Brilliant Blue

From bright cobalt to rich navy to vivid sky, blue in all its hues will infuse our interiors with vibrant, serotonin-inducing vibes in 2025. Shop our wide assortment of blue tile–including the Zellige Azul gloss tile shown here–to find the perfect shade for your space.

9. Cozy Patterns

Charming florals are a cornerstone of some of our favorite emerging trends. “English cottage” and the closely related “granny chic” styles use vintage-inspired plays of pattern and color to evoke the cozy feeling of curling up on an overstuffed sofa with a warm cup of tea. The whimsical patterns in our exclusive Laura Ashley collection will help you achieve this timeless trend.

10. Glass and Mirrors

Reflective surfaces will brighten more spaces in 2025. Mirrored glass tiles add warmth and depth to your space, making them a great choice for kitchen backsplashes or entryway walls. Here, the Patina Siren Mirror by Kelli Fontana tile helps to illuminate this stylish kitchen.

11. Textured Walls

The coming year will be about celebrating all five senses, which means adding tactile elements to your home. Fluted tile, like the Violin Decor tile shown here, adds texture to your walls. Install this tile in your bathroom or shower to awaken your senses at the start of the day.

12. Natural Neutrals

The trend toward embracing the shapes, materials and colors of nature will continue into the new year. Warm browns and beiges reflect the outside world and create a serene and soothing atmosphere. Shop our full assortment of brown and beige tiles to create tranquil spaces.

13. All Things Green

Increasingly recognized as a new neutral, green inspires a feeling of connectivity with nature, making it a popular shade for home interiors. Its versatility in pairing with other colors makes it a go-to tone for a variety of styles. Shop our wide selection of green tile and create your own envy-worthy space.

14. Self-Care Spaces

Making time to be your best self is more than just a trend. Prioritize your self-care by creating spaces that promote well-being. Whether it’s an ultra-luxe bathroom like this Nikki Chu-designed room, or a tranquil shower, having a place in your home that relaxes and revitalizes you will help you care for more than just yourself.

15. Natural Stone

Luxurious and unique, natural stone continues to be a popular design choice. In addition to the ever-popular marble, we predict that travertine will grace many spaces in 2025. Here, Arctic White marble is paired with Claros Silver travertine for a beautifully textured shower.

We can’t wait to see all the amazing spaces you create in 2025! Share your next project by tagging us @thetileshop on Instagram or uploading it directly to our Customer Room Gallery (you can find even more design inspo there, too)!

The Modena tile used on this chic shower features marble cut in diamond-shaped mosaic pieces. The effect is a lovely, unique and practical design.

13. Showcase Your Favorite Marble in a Shower Niche

If all-over marble isn’t your style (or isn’t in your budget), you can showcase a favorite tile in a smaller format by using it in a shower niche. The leaf-shaped Elia Polished by Alison Victoria tile, shown here, creates an elegant moment in this chic shower.

14. Stretch Your Budget by Pairing the Real Thing With Marble-Look

Love marble, but floor-to-ceiling application doesn’t fit in your budget? Pairing marble-look tile with the real thing can give you a luxurious space without breaking the bank.

Every tile in our Zellige collection is crafted, painted, and glazed by hand, ensuring one-of-a-kind character. This process results in subtle differences in tone, as evident in this gorgeous bathroom featuring the Zellige Alabaster Gloss tile.

Grey-toned beige, or greige, combines both warm and cool neutrals for a space that is at once energizing and relaxing. Here the warm and cool tones are dramatically expressed in the Invisible Grey marble-look tile shower wall, but the griege Nord Ris Hex floor tile grounds this space in a solid neutral.

5. Layer Marble for a Rich, Luxurious Look

Elevate your tile design by layering stone shapes and trim. This luxurious shower features several tiles form our Queen Beige marble collection.

This exquisite bathroom by Nikki Chu demonstrates how to achieve one of the most popular new design styles–quiet luxury. The light beige and brown veining in the marble-look backsplash and floor tile create a softness to this space, which is continued in the subtle texture of the handmade-look white subway tile.

8. Try Taupe for Slightly Darker Tone

The Savannah Antique marble-look tile, used in this shower designed by Russo Residential, features bold grey and taupe veining on a crisp white background. The splendid color, slightly darker than traditional beige, creates a space that awakens the senses while still maintaining harmony.

9. Create Visual Texture with Handmade-Look Tiles

10. Show Your Stripes

Stripes of beige travertine and white marble gives this chic shower, designed by Timber Trails, a vibrant, yet calming feel.

The post 12 Fabulous Beige Bathroom Tile Ideas appeared first on The Tile Shop Blog.

1. Abstract Shore-line Patterns

Named for the famous California coastline, the Big Sur tiles–available in Off the Hook (blue) and Sea Spray (green)–are the newest tiles in designer Jeffrey Alan Marks’ West Coast-inspired collection. The vibrant-colored abstract glossy pattern is set atop a cream-colored matte base. While these tiles are meant to mimic the look of glazed pottery, they also invoke a wave washing into a sandy shore. Pair this tile with neutral accessories (like the woven shades on the wall sconces in this stylish, modern bathroom) to highlight the uniquely expressive patterns.

2. Sandy Shades

Capture the warmth of a sunny beach and embrace a neutral color palette, with elegant beige tile. Relaxed sandy shades are the perfect base for your coastal aesthetic and can be accentuated with colorful details, nautical nicknacks or left bare for an elegantly minimalistic look like this calming bathroom. We love how the curved edges of the Wave Old Cream tile embodies both the sandy hue and the relaxing movement of the ocean. Shop our full assortment of beige tile to find the perfect warm-toned backdrop for your space.

3. Bright Sea Tones

Coastal style doesn’t mean you’re limited to pastels. Celebrate the sea of hues that make up the oceans with brilliant turquoise and deep blue. This vibrant kitchen features the Zellige Turquoise Gloss tile. Formed, painted and glazed by hand, this artisanal tile features perfectly imperfect variations in surface texture and tone for a look as beautifully expressive as the sea. If this vivid shade embodies your coastal aesthetic, shop our wide selection of turquoise tile.

4. Sun-Kissed Patterns

The Summerland collection by Jeffrey Alan Marks perfectly encapsulates those easy, breezy, sun-soaked summer days. The faded linen pattern star pattern–available in Rincon, Toro and Miramar (shown here)–mimics the look of soft embroidered fabric. This bathroom demonstrates how to style this tile to achieve an earthy coastal vibe. The neutral Tribeca Gypsum White tile complements the blue-and-white patterned tile and the woven and wooden accessories add to the tactile, organic feel of this space.

5. Cool Cloudy Neutrals

Not every day on the beach is sunny. Embrace the many moods of the sea with cool neutral grey tones. This bathroom features the Verona Gray, an elegant stone-look porcelain wall tile. The natural appearance of the shade variation creates a sense of movement evoking a cloudy sky. On the floor, the Laura Ashley Wicker Dove Grey tile showcases a white blossom star pattern, adding interest to the space. While the white flowers are charming, the coastal appeal of this space could easily be turned up a notch with the inclusion of some woven, wooden or blue accessories. Shop grey tile to find your perfect cloudy neutral vibe.

6. Stunning Stripes

Nothing invokes the nautical aesthetic quite like stripes, but if your aim is coastal chic, not coastal kitsch, elevate your striped pattern with beautiful sand-colored neutrals like this stunning shower designed by Timber Trails. The elegant white San Dona marble tile is complemented by the Legno travertine tile’s soft beige tones. The delicate veining in these stone tiles creates subtle movement that elevates this space and evokes the organic appeal of a sandy shore.

7. Nautical Nods

All hands are on deck in this elegant bathroom designed by West Bay Homes. The Decora Redondo tile features a chic nautical-esque pattern. The crosses and stars in elegant greige invoke the high-seas iconography of a nautical helm, without being overly kitsch. We particularly love how modern this bathroom is with its styled with the decorative blue coral, a stylish twist on classic coastal decor.

8. Pale Blue Accents

Blue is the staple of the coastal chic aesthetic, and when you think coastal hues, the shade you probably conjure is probably a pretty pastel sky blue. For this coastal-inspired living room, Timber Trails began their design with the Laura Ashley Wicker Sea Spray tile as the centering design element. The blue of the fireplace is repeated in the pillows, but the rest of the room remains white, keeping this space elegant, but subdued. Read all about how Timber Trails designed this blue-themed house.

9. Saturated Ocean Blues

If you’re in love with blue, there’s no need to relegate it to your accent pillows. A brightly-hued, saturated blue space fits right in with the coastal chic style book. In fact, why not go all-in with blue in one room, and add dabs in another. This beautiful laundry room designed by West Bay Homes is coastal elegance to the max. While the decorative Decora Ornament Blue tile is giving us more French Mediterranean than Cali-coast vibes, the color palette and minimal, earthy accessories keep this in coastal territory.

10. Warm & Sunny Neutrals

Brighten your space and your day with warm, sunny neutrals. This creamy-toned beverage station features the handmade-look Riad White tile. The undulating surface tone and texture creates movement as the light reflects at different points in the tile, mimicking the look of light reflecting off water. This space is warm and inviting, and if you swapped the floral prints with seaside views, you’d have a perfectly chic coastal space.

1. Backsplash Tile With Oak Cabinets

A neutral light wood is the great base for a fun and funky pattern. The curved pattern of the Elipse Azul tile echos the woodgrain in theses kitchen cabinets for wonderful, mesmerizing movement. The slightly muted dark blue with off-white coloring of this patterned tile complements this light oak wood.

2. Create a Natural Transition

The Tribeca Oatmeal subway tile provides a balanced transition between the white wall cabinets and wood base cabinets in this bright, modern kitchen. The glossy finish on this creamy subway tile adds shine to this kitchen, so that in the right light the wall looks white, but the color variation creates interest.

3. Make it Monochromatic

Beige tiles paired with maple wood create an elegant, monochromatic color scheme as is proof in this beautiful minimalist kitchen. The curves in the Wave Old Cream tile lends softness to this design with its serene neutral palette. We also love how the white grout joints complement the white light fixtures and countertops.

4. Add Depth With Dark Colors

Pair a dark color with a darker wood cabinet for moodier design that gives your kitchen richness. The dark wood base cabinets complement the vibrant color of the Wave Blue Reef tile. This tile might be too dark with wall cabinets, but the open shelving allows for the light to pass through and reflect off the glossy tile.

5. Metallic Patterned Backsplash

A sparkling metallic pattern adds glamour to this ultra-chic kitchen designed by Annie Selke. The reflective pattern of the Annie Selke Goldleaf Speckle tile shines next to the blond wood and white cabinets. The pattern tile creates a visual transition between the wall and base cabinets, by maintaining the neutral color palette.

6. Complement Your Countertops

If you have wood cabinets and granite countertops, then a handmade-look subway tile, like the Annie Selke Artisanal White tile shown here, will add charm to your traditional kitchen aesthetic. The uneven surface edges add detail to this design that complement the dark wood of the cabinets and brown granite.

7. Groove-y Design

Grooved 3D tile complements the woodgrain in stained wood cabinets. The raised line design on the 4-D Diagonal White tile adds a uniformed movement to a space that is already alive with the movement. The geometry of the tile contrasts the organic flow of the woodgrain for a balance of the natural and engineered.

8. Neutral Backsplash Tile With Dark Wood Cabinets

If your cabinets are dark, a light, cool neutral will help balance the tone of your kitchen. The soft shade of the Neo Hex Gloss Blue-Grey tile provides a lightness to the heaviness of the cabinets, and the glossy finish reflects the light, brightening the prep space. The elongated hexagon tile creates a sleek pattern that adds interest to the minimalist wooden cabinets.

9. Add Drama With Contrasting Grout

A black tile with white grout or a white tile with black grout–like the Imperial Brite White tile shown here–will add a subtle sense of drama to your space. Perfect for creating interest to a minimalist wood cabinet design. We love how the black grout complements the black range hood, shelf and handles in this modern kitchen.

10. Be Authentic With Handmade Zellige Tile

Crafted by hand, Moroccan Zellige tile is truly one of a kind. The subtle variations in size, shape, glaze and color will give your backsplash character that pairs perfectly with the unique look of natural wood. This kitchen designed by Fox Homes uses the Zellige White Gloss tile. The effect is a crisp, clean and creative aesthetic.

11. Embrace a Folksy Pattern

This kitchen designed by Kyndred embodies everything we love about modern farmhouse style–wooden cabinets, open shelving and the folk-art-inspired Star Blue tile stove backsplash. The handmade-look details of this tile add charm to this patterned tile and complement the stained wood cabinetry. For more ideas on how to incorporate this aesthetic in your space, read our Tile For Every Style: Modern Farmhouse, style guide.

12. Keep It Crisp and Clean With White Tile

From blond to dark wood, you can’t go wrong with crisp and clean white tile pairing. We love how this kitchen designed by Molly Howe Design uses the Hex Matte White tile to create a wonderfully textured white backsplash. The white range hood and countertops add to the crispness of this design.

13. Celebrate Your Style With an Art Deco Mosaic

The beauty of wood cabinets is that they will complement a range of styles, so your tile choice may determine whether your look is midcentury modern or modern farmhouse or coastal. The gorgeous flapper-era design of the Skyline with Gold stone mosaic tile transforms this modern kitchen design with the sunning gilded geometrical shapes of art deco.

14. Add an Artistic Touch With a Picture Frame

The simplicity of wood cabinets allows for creativity in your tile design. A picture frame in your stove backsplash will give your space an elegant, designed look. This picture frame designed by Sutherland Home features the Ancient Cordoba tile with its intricate and ornate design that elevates the simple kitchen. Shop our vast assortment of patterned tile and mosaic tile to find a favorite to showcase in your kitchen.
