The Beauty and Art of Tile

Tile adds distinct beauty and functionality to any room of the home, especially your most lived-in spaces.

Are you looking for a creative outlet in your kitchen beyond your culinary expertise? Consider creating a masterpiece with tile in your kitchen.

The tile backsplash in a kitchen—especially one that features an otherwise understated, contemporary design—is often a great place to experiment with bold designs, patterns, and colors. Also, many tile flooring options are both beautiful and durable.

Add visual interest via a tile backsplash. Subway tile’s straightforward style is defined by rectangular ceramic tiles (usually white or light colors) paired with light grout. This understated color scheme is popular, but a wide variety of colors can suit your kitchen design, and the rectangular tile allows for many pattern choices, as well. Stylish and classic, the gorgeous subway tile backsplash trend is here to stay.

Mosaic tile is another popular tile backsplash choice, especially for anyone interested in adding visual interest to their kitchen. Often made of glass, ceramic, or stone, these small tiles stick to a mesh backing and are arrayed in a diverse pattern.
