Top 4 tile flooring trends
Tile is a traditional floor covering that has been updated to enhance twenty-first-century decorating styles. It's easy to create a unique floor of tiles of different colors, shapes, and sizes. Specialty tiles like medallion tiles are another option. All-Pro Floors offers tile in Arlington, Texas, to fit any home decor. We have been serving the DFW area since 2008.
Updated look
Today, trendy floors are installed by creative homeowners who want to take a traditional look up a notch. For example, the perennial favorite standard-sized black and white square tile floor might be recreated with mosaic or large format tiles. Or two different contrasting colors may be combined to create a simple but visually striking look.
Shapes and sizes
Fashionable square mosaic tiles measure 2-inches while square or rectangular large format tiles measure at least 30-inches in width and length. Hexagon and octagon-shaped tiles are also in vogue. Keep in mind that the shape and size of the tiles can affect the overall appearance of a space. For example, large format tiles expand a small space.
Porcelain and stone
Budget-friendly ceramic tile flooring will always be popular. But porcelain, the most durable type of tile available, is trendy now. The tiles come in many designs as well as solid colors. Stone look and wood look porcelain are two options that are often found in the most gracious homes. Porcelain is naturally waterproof, but ceramic must be glazed to repel water.
Beyond a grid layout
Tile laid in a grid pattern creates a timeless look. But today, many homeowners are opting for an eye-catching layout pattern instead. Designs like herringbone and chevron are ideal for wood look tile. These small plank-shaped tiles are easily incorporated into many decorating styles. In addition, patterns like basket weaves can include 'planks' and square tiles.
