Bring A Splash Of Style To A Room

Whether you are kitting out a room from scratch or simply updating its look, it is all too easy to spend hours picking all the ingredients, from the wow-factor tub to the traditional coffee table, and then forget about the floor. This is an often neglected element of the room, but it can do much to improve its functionality and appearance. The floor in a room such as the hallway, kitchen and bathroom needs to be able to withstand the daily battering of heavy foot traffic, moisture and spills, but is also offers an extra design element, helping to pull the look together.

Tiles are an excellent, sturdy choice for the hallway – they hold up well to heavy traffic – and there are endless styles, patterns and colour choices available. Patterned tiles are a great choice for the hallway as they create an instant focal point. Not only are they versatile and work with a whole multitude of design schemes, but they are also easy to clean – making maintenance effortless. From encaustic and cement to ceramic and porcelain, patterned tiles of all kinds are enjoying a surge in popularity.

You’ve got to admit, original floorboards are absolutely stunning – that’s if you’re lucky enough to possess them. Wood effect tiles are a great alternative, and due to the latest printing technology, it’s often difficult to distinguish wood-effect tiles from the real thing. Manufacturers are able to recreate the same shade variation and grain structure that you would expect to come from natural wood onto a ceramic or porcelain tile. A perfect option for a living dining room where the traditional features are often preserved.

The subtle veining and neutral shades of marble effect tiles make them perfect for bathrooms of every style – from traditional to on-trend designs like this one, which mixes original features with a timeless style.
