Our Fave Bathroom Tile Design Ideas

Tile has been used in wet spaces since the days of the Roman Baths. Durable, waterproof and resistant to mold, germs and bacteria, glazed tile, like ceramic and porcelain, encaustic tile, like cement, and natural stone tile are all beautiful choices for bathroom flooring, walls and shower surrounds.

While the trough-style sink is definitely an eye-catcher, it's hard not to let your eye settle on this bath's cement tile floor where a kaleidoscopic pattern in shades of blue adds a big dose of color to this otherwise black-and-white bath.

This main bath has spa style cornered with the luxe Carrara marble herringbone floor and glossy, glass tile backsplash. The mosaic tiles feature a basketweave pattern with subtle color shifts, from watery blues and greens to grays and cream.

The emerald green walls in this sumptuous main bath certainly prove that it's easy being green. Deep, dark and dramatic, the gemstone shade creates a beautiful backdrop to a Calacatta marble vanity and basketweave marble tile floor. Brass accents throughout add the perfect amount of golden glam.
