1. Create Serenity With Mixed Finishes

Mixing glossy and matte finishes is a subtle way to create visual texture in your space, creating a feeling of tranquility. The glossy finish reflects light, brightening the room, while the matte finish offers a soothing respite. This luxurious bathroom, designed by Timber Trails, combines Queen Beige polished marble with San Dona honed marble tile, creating a subtly sophisticated space.

2. Spa Bathroom Ideas

Beige, brown and ochre are calming bathroom colors that evoke a feeling of warmth. This spa-like bathroom, designed by Nikki Chu, showcases the Macchia Vecchia marble-look tile. While the color palette remains soft, the tiles’ dramatic veining adds an invigorating sense of movement, making this space at once restive and rejuvenating.

3. Sensory Bathroom Ideas

The Enredo Steel Dark Brown wall tile adds visual and tactile texture to this space. The raised surface provides an energizing component by stimulating the sense of touch, while the dark neutral color produces a calming effect, making this the perfect place to start or end your day.

4. Relaxing Bathroom Ideas

A corner seat provides a place to rest and relax in your shower. A seat may also be a necessity for people with mobility issues, and it is a great addition if you’re looking to make your home more adaptable for aging in place. As this gorgeous shower demonstrates, it can also be quite stylish.

5. Increase Your Connectivity to Nature

Colors and textures inspired by the outdoors help boost serotonin and ground you in the natural world. Blues, greens, earth tones and wood looks all relax and rejuvenate the senses. While natural wood might not be ideally suited to the dampness of a bathroom, a wood-look tile, like the Violin Decor tile shown here, will still contribute to a soothing space. For more ideas on bringing nature’s benefits into your home, check out our guide to biophilic design.

6. Declutter With a Shower Niche

Ditch the shower caddy and store your shampoo in style with an integrated shower niche. Showcasing a favorite patterned or mosaic tile in your niche will elevate your overall bathroom design. These niches are also adaptable to your space; you can install multiple niches to meet your needs or create one long shelf.

7. Surround Yourself With Soothing Natural Stone

Nothing says luxury like natural stone. The unique tones and veining found in marble, slate and travertine will make your space truly one of a kind. This shower features Legno limestone tile throughout; the natural veining adds movement, while the warm shades of beige infuse the space with serene tranquility.

8. Create an Invigorating Pattern

When designing your self-care haven, the most important consideration is finding what appeals most to you. Incorporating a bold pattern to showcase your personality may be more appealing than natural stone. The Big Sur by Jeffrey Alan Marks in Off the Hook tile, shown here, features an artistic pattern with six distinct tile faces, offering a wealth of creative possibilities. Shop our full selection of patterned tiles to find a design that reflects your style.

9. Add an Interesting Focal Point

A tile focal point–whether it’s a stylish picture frame accent or a floor-to-ceiling stripe–adds interest to your space. Mosaics and patterned tiles, like the Toris Bandes tile shown here, add shape, movement and design. Play with contrasting and complementary patterns, textures and shapes to find a look that embodies your zen bathroom design.

The post Year In Review: Top 10 Bathrooms of 2024 appeared first on The Tile Shop Blog.

1. Create a Tiled Accent Wall

Tiling only one wall can create a focal point and add the illusion of depth to your space. In this beautiful bathroom, Timber Trails tiled the wall behind the sink with the Alato Beachwalk Chevron glass mosaic tile, which doubles as a backsplash and enhances the space with a space a sense of movement.

2. Embrace Classic Encaustic Patterns

Made from cement using centuries-old techniques, encaustic tiles will lend an air of timelessness to your design. The classic pattern on the Britianna Camden tile is a case in point. In this half bathroom, the tile creates interest above the sink, while the warm neutral palette lends softness to the space.

3. Go Back to Basics With White Subway Tile

White subway remains a popular tile for a reason–the sleek and clean design is endlessly versatile, making this a great tile choice if you anticipate wanting to change up your bathroom decor with the seasons (or your moods). Here, @talk_repurposed installed the Imperial Bianco Matte tile with black grout, creating continuity of color between the walls and the black and white penny tile floor.

4. Add Shape & Movement with Marble Hexagon Tile

An elegant marble instantly elevates any room’s design. Choose a dynamic shape, like the Hampton Carrara Tumbled Hex tile shown here, to add even more interest to your space. The veining in the marble creates subtile variations in color between the tile pieces for a natural sense of movement.

5. Expand Your Wall Space with Large-Format Tile

Large-format tile requires fewer grout lines, which will give your space a more expansive and cohesive look–perfect for a small powder room! And you don’t need to tile the entire room to get the effect. This bathroom, designed by Domicile 37, uses oversized Invisible Grey tile as a wainscoting. Installed vertically, this tile gives the space the illusion of height as well as depth.

6. Create a Wellness-Focused Space With Wood-Look Tile

Wood-look tile offers the same connection to nature and serotonin-boosting benefits as natural wood. The Fileto Camel tile used in this chic bathroom features a soothing fluted look that adds to the tactile experience of this space. For more ideas on the nature-inspired benefits of “biophilic design” check out this helpful guide.

7. Add Texture With Sculptural Tile

Like fluted tile, sculptural or 3D tile will add to the sensory experience of your space. The wavy ridges of the Ritual tile, shown here, create texture and soft movement. As the light catches on the raised portion of the tile and casts shadows, the effect is a dynamic space that can be changed with the simple addition of a candle.

8. Soften the Edges with Wave-Shaped Tile

Tile is a hard design element by definition, but tiles with a curved shape–like the Wave Grey Owl tile shown here–will lend softness to your space. The curves of the mirror, circular wall sconce, and even the sink basin all work with the curved tile to give this space a feeling of ease.

9. Create a Beachy Vibe

Give your powder room a relaxed seaside update with “coastal chic” design. Characterized by charming blues and warm neutrals, this sleek style goes beyond basic nautical nods. We love how the Big Sur by Jeffrey Alan Marks in Off the Hook tile uses an abstract, wave-like pattern to evoke the ocean shore. For more beachy tile ideas, check out this comprehensive guide.

10. Pair a Pattern With a Pattern

Because it’s a relatively small area of the house, and perhaps not a room you’ll use on a daily basis, the powder room is a great place to explore your style. Patterns that might feel busy in the master bathroom can provide an unexpected surprise for your guests. Here, a bold floral wallpaper is paired with a black-and-white marble-look patterned tile for a visually stimulating space.

11. Create a Chic (and Cozy) Space

“Modern farmhouse” embraces comfy, homey and effortlessly stylish design. If this is your aesthetic, then your powder room is the perfect place to put it on display. For this rustic-chic bathroom I SPY DIY based their design around the hexagon mirror, using the simple Silver Hex tile to highlight this shape and tie in to the neutral tone of this space.

12. Soften Your Space With a Pastel Palette

Create a dreamy space that relaxes your senses with soft pastel tile. This lovely powder room, designed by Rodi Homes, features the Color Market Alice tile installed in a herringbone pattern. The light pink tile makes this space light and feminine, while zig-zag grout lines add bold movement.

13. Mix Old and New With Transitional Design

This elegant bathroom from Timber Trails perfectly encapsulates the timeless charm of transitional design. Blending traditional elements (the grey paneled walls and regally shaped mirror) with the contemporary light fixture and diamond-shaped tile, this space transcends trends. If your style falls between classic and contemporary, discover more ideas in our Tile For Every Style guide to transitional design.

14. Add Depth to Your Space With Glossy Tile

Make your small space feel larger with a slightly reflective glossy tile that catches the light. The gloss finish of the Tribeca Basalt tile used in this bathroom creates the illusion of depth and also brightens the room. Glossy tile is perfect for a space that includes a natural light source.

The Modena tile used on this chic shower features marble cut in diamond-shaped mosaic pieces. The effect is a lovely, unique and practical design.

13. Showcase Your Favorite Marble in a Shower Niche

If all-over marble isn’t your style (or isn’t in your budget), you can showcase a favorite tile in a smaller format by using it in a shower niche. The leaf-shaped Elia Polished by Alison Victoria tile, shown here, creates an elegant moment in this chic shower.

14. Stretch Your Budget by Pairing the Real Thing With Marble-Look

Love marble, but floor-to-ceiling application doesn’t fit in your budget? Pairing marble-look tile with the real thing can give you a luxurious space without breaking the bank.

4. Use “Griege” For a Mix of Warm & Cool Tones

Grey-toned beige, or greige, combines both warm and cool neutrals for a space that is at once energizing and relaxing. Here the warm and cool tones are dramatically expressed in the Invisible Grey marble-look tile shower wall, but the griege Nord Ris Hex floor tile grounds this space in a solid neutral.

The post 12 Fabulous Beige Bathroom Tile Ideas appeared first on The Tile Shop Blog.

1. Embrace Handcrafted Elegance

Zellige tiles are cut, painted and glazed by hand, ensuring that each piece is truly unique. This bathroom designed by @forgegrove features the Zellige White Gloss tile paired with brass hardware for authentic elegance. The tiles’ slight variations in size and coloration create an uneven surface, adding lots of visual texture within the neutral color palette.

2. Create a Neat Design With Subway Tile

Arrange your tile in a vertical straight stack for crisp, orderly lines that that enhance the fresh, clean aesthetic of traditional white subway tile. This shower designed by Restor Homes shows how this simple layout can make an impact. The stacked tiles paired with the brass shower gives this space a cool, contemporary feel.

3. White Bathroom Floor Tile Ideas

A white tile floor is a nice base for any room, and we love how the Hampton Carrara Hex tile used in this chic bathroom designed by Timber Trails coordinates with the cool neutrals in this stylish space. The serene wall color brings out the soft grey veining in the marble tile, while the hexagon shape adds a sense of movement and sophistication.

4. Mix Glossy & Matte Finishes

A glossy finish creates a reflective surface, which, when paired with a matte finish, creates a stunningly subtle design. The alternating stripes of the Coco White Glossy and Matte tiles shown here use natural light to add brightness and interest to this contemporary bathroom.

5. Make a Big Impact With Large-Format Tiles

One of our favorite trends in tile is also one of the biggest literally and figuratively. Large-format tiles require fewer grout joints, giving your space an expansive, cohesive look. The bold grey veining on the oversized Elite Renoir tile used in this bathroom designed by Sara Matos Interior Designs adds dramatic movement along a sleek bathroom wall and tub surround.

6. Make a Point With Picket Tile

A twist on traditional subway, picket tile is popular for its unique shape and off-center layout. This bathroom pairs the Lanse Matte White Picket tile with a sleek sink and contemporary accessories for an ultra-modern look.

7. Add Subtle Contrast with Beige Grout

The grout you choose can drastically alter your tile design. A contrasting black or dark grey grout will create drama, while white grout lines recede so tiles appear to blend together. For subtle contrast, choose a light neutral shade like the beige grout used in this bathroom. The soft coloring brings out the warm tones in the sink and countertop and contrasts nicely with the black hardware for a chic, contemporary look.

8. Make Waves for a Softer Design

The gentle curves of the Wave White tile soften this modern design for a calming effect. The wave pattern is perfect for a “coastal chic” designs. Pair this tile with blue or sand-colored paint and accessories for an elevated beachy vibe.

9. Add Softness With Honed Marble

A honed finish adds softness and depth to marble without the reflective shine of polished stone. Here San Dona honed marble is used throughout the space for an elegant, cohesive look, but you could easily incorporate satin-finish or polished pieces to highlight certain areas or bring brightness to your design.

10. Play With Pattern

Good news! You can still incorporate pattern into your white bathroom. The subtle white-on-taupe motif of the Annie Selke Flora Coconut Milk tile on the upper walls of this transitional shower lends a botanical flair to this otherwise simple tile design. The effect is a rich space that still maintains a soft, neutral color scheme.

11. Create Charm With a Mosaic

Available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and patterns, mosaic tile usually incorporates smaller pieces–perfect for creating traction on a bathroom or shower floor or for decorating a wall like this modern bathroom. The small, elongated bar shapes of the KitKat White mosaic tile add texture to this relaxing and charming space.

12. Infuse Your Space With “Quiet Luxury”

Authentic and elegant, marble is at the forefront of one of our favorite trends–quiet luxury. This bathroom features Volkas marble throughout for a lush space that’s full of natural movement and tones of grey and beige.

We love how the Coco Canvas Glossy tile are arranged in a vertical stripe, but you can achieve a similar look with alternating bands of glossy and matte without changing the tiles’ direction.
