The design potential of patterned tiles
Patterned floor tiles & wall tiles are perfect for creating a distinctive design, so it’s no wonder they are a firm favourite in 2021. If you are looking for an interesting and individual concept for your home interior, you will find a lot of potential in patterned tiles.
This unique retro design option provides a large amount of creativity through various colours, different patterns and an abundance of character. Overall, these popular tiles are chosen to improve the aesthetic design of your walls and floors and create focal features such as splash backs and fireplace hearths.
They can be used to create a theme, add colour and shape and reflect your personal style. The materials ceramic and porcelain can also be considerably more practical compared to carpet or hardwood flooring.
The advantages of using porcelain patterned tiles
Patterned tiles work well in bathroom and kitchen areas because they are resilient to water damage and do not warp or degrade in moist environments. They are also perfect in hallways and porches due to the easy maintenance and cleaning of areas of your home that see the most muddy boots!
Like many other tiles, they are also eco-friendly as materials such as ceramic, porcelain and even limestone are sustainable and can be harvested efficiently with minimal environmental damage.
Other benefits of using tiles
Most tiles, including patterned tiles, are extremely hygienic as they cannot provide an ideal environment for bacteria to develop. They also cannot collect dust or pollen for those of you who may have aggravated allergies.
Tiles are virtually heatproof and can retain a cool temperature against a warm environment. In addition, they are non-combustible and will therefore not succumb to fire damage, release harmful gases or change colour when exposed to hot objects or flames. Because of this factor, you can apply an underfloor heating system without fear of accidents or damages.
The greatest advantage of all with these tiles is personalisation. Patterned tiles can come in a variety of shapes and colours which offers a wide range of options, especially when you shop with Tiles and Mosaics.
