Is there anything more chic than black and white?
There are few – if any – colour combinations which create such a dramatic appearance as black and white. These contrasting dark and light colours can work in perfect harmony as part of a wide range of designs. Black and white tiles are a popular choice for both walls and floors and this article provides you with plenty of inspiration, whether you are looking to transform the style of your bathroom, kitchen or any other part of your home.
A genuine wow factor
If you are looking for an eye-catching design, then black and white patterned tiles are an excellent choice. Geometric shaped designs are ideal for producing a genuine wow factor and these tiles can be used on either a wall or floor. They can be matched with other black and white features for a consistent theme. Our Retro Mix is well suited to kitchen floors, porches and also backsplash designs and feature walls. These tiles provide areas with a unique look.
The modern vibe
Hexagon tiles are really on trend and there are various ways in which they can be used on a wall or floor. Our Urban Hexagon tile offers a stylish contrast and intriguing aesthetic. Hexagon tiles really allow you to get creative and try different ideas. A tiled hexagon floor design, for example, creates an original feature which is both simple and effective.
Decorative mosaics
Black and white mosaics have a decorative appearance and can be used in various ways as part of bathroom and kitchen layouts. Our Lagos Night Mosaic is particularly well suited to bathrooms, wet rooms and ensuites. Mosaics are attached to flexible mesh sheets which means you can adjust them accordingly to fit within backsplash designs, borders and shower area floors. The flexibility of these mesh sheets also enables mosaics to be applied to rounded surfaces including bathtubs and pillars.
Border force
Contrasting a white tiled wall with a black border design is a subtle way of using these two colours. This wall border provides a classy and sophisticated appearance, therefore enhancing the overall design. This design is proof that it is sometimes the small details which have the biggest impact. Our Metro Marfil with Metro Black as the border is a minimalistic way of introducing an additional style element. This border looks superb throughout modern bathrooms including above bathtubs and in shower areas. It combines superbly with white bathroom suites and chrome taps.
That’s grrrrrout
Combining black and white tiles together as part of the same design is one thing but how about using white tiles with a contrasting black grout? Our Florencia Bianco with black grout helps to enhance the overall style. This design can transform the appearance of an entire room. It certainly represents something out of the ordinary and can really bring an interior to life. You could even add sparkly glitter to the grout to produce an even more fascinating appearance. We’d also suggest installing a black crittall shower screen to give your bathroom that urban edge. Tile tip - add a black trim to your tiled area to create a clean finish.
