With thousands of beautiful tiles to choose from, deciding on your kitchen backsplash is a big task. For many people the tile backsplash in the kitchen is the one place they allow themselves a bit of whimsy: the flourish of a mosaic or a burst of brilliant color. Even if you’re just looking for a low-maintenance tile that ties the rest of the room together, you still have so much choice. Experiment with different materials and textures: glossy glass, cool natural stone, or sleek stainless steel. Choose one neutral color but play with different sizes and shapes. Whether you’re going for a quiet beauty or a bold statement, your backsplash tiles should make you happy.
Smaller spaces tucked away in the inner recesses of the home, the bathroom is the perfect place to release your inner artist and go a little design happy. With almost every surface up for grabs in terms of tiling, choosing can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. It is important to consider both the function of the bathroom as well as and the aesthetics, so that the end result is as pretty as it is practical.
When it comes to designing a pool, we tend to focus first on the landscape and architecture, followed by the flooring and wall design and then the pool deck and decorative murals, if any. But, pool art is as much about tile type as about architecture and layout. The type of tile you choose can alter the entire look of the pool and create a unique oasis in the center of your backyard.
