White tiles are one the most popular flooring options in bathrooms and kitchens. It gives a space a clean and bright foundation for limitless design possibilities. However, with white tiles, there are a few things to keep in mind.

There’s More Than One Kind of White

“White” can mean many different things. Are you looking for a bright luminous white or something a little more neutral and toned down? There are dozens of shades and finishes, some of which verge on “earthy.”

Material Matters

At Trini Tile we have a variety of white ceramic and porcelain tiles to choose from. You can even find brick and glass options. All of them have different characteristics that are better suited to different applications. If you want to know more about which material is best for your project, check out this blog.

Size Can Be Used to Shape Your Perception

Field tiles — squares, and rectangular tiles of various dimensions — are the most popular choice for flooring. Beyond the practicality of this size, it can also be an aesthetic choice as well. Keep in mind larger tiles can make a room appear larger, similarly with smaller tiles.

So Can Patterns

In the absence of colour, subtler design details will draw attention. You can arrange your tile in a herringbone pattern, for instance, or a basketweave. Patterns can also create a distinct transition between floor and wall without changing colour.

You Aren’t Stuck with Squares or Rectangles

Hexagons are a very popular choice for bathroom floors, and they come in several sizes, each offering a different look. Other shapes include scalloped tiles (‘fish-scales’), penny rounds, diamond shaped tiles, and more. These shapes paired with a dark grout can accentuate the graphic effect, elevating your white floor tile.

If You Want to Add Colour…

If you are intrigued by the idea of white floor tiles but aren’t fully committed to the idea, there are many ways to incorporate accents into your predominantly white floor. For example, a checkerboard is one way of achieving a unique look or incorporate the occasional mosaic tile to create a charming pattern.
