January 4, 2018 Tile Colours – How To Choose The Right Coloured Tiles For Your Home

When it comes to tile design and colours, the only limit is your imagination. There are so many ceramic and stone tile varieties available, not to mention the abundance of colours, textures, styles and patterns. This allows you to put “you” into any chosen design. Let’s see how you can choose the right tile colours for your bathroom tiles.

One method recommended is to use simple, neutral colours, Why?

For one, if your bathroom is small, using accent tiles, decorative borders contrasting tiles, or bold and colourful tiles can give the feeling of clutter and create what is sometimes called a “gingerbread” effect, making your bathroom look like a gingerbread house with candy cane doorframes and other multi-coloured ornaments which is very busy trying to take in. A neutral colour scheme with a muted pattern can help you avoid this, but still bring your bathroom alive.

There is also another advantage. The neutral scheme tends to take on the tone of the furnishings such as rugs, or accessories such as towels. This means that if you are using a black and white colour scheme but would like to switch to green and blue, all you need to do is buy a new rug, towels, perhaps soap dishes, etc and it will look like a fresh new bathroom.
