Tile Ideas that Highlight Your Bathroom

Bold + Graphic
No need to hide this stunning shower behind a curtain. The shower’s glass enclosure not only exposes the showstopping black-and-white geometric tile, but also creates an open and airy atmosphere. Design tip: Add warmth to a black-and-white palette by staying away from cool finishes and instead choosing bronze, gold, or brass.

Shower Tile: Style Meets Substance
A necessity in most modern homes, a shower provides both the quickest way to get clean and a little much-needed me time. Choosing the right tile not only creates a waterproof space, but it can also dramatically boost your bathroom’s style. From luxe marble to budget-friendly ceramic, take a look at our favorite ways to tile your shower.

Spacious Home Spa
Step into the extravagance of a shower the size of most people’s entire bathroom. Beveled white subway tile fills this space, from the walls to the barrel-vaulted ceiling to the built-in bench. To add visual interest, small hex tiles were laid in a chic, geometric pattern on the floor.

Spa-aah!
If there’s a visual definition for minimalist luxury, this bathroom is about the closest we’ll ever get. The quiet palette evokes a restful respite from the world, while tone-on-tone motifs bring in subtle glamour. Elegant diamond-patterned marble tiles decorate the shower’s floor and ceiling, while a geometric inset creates a lovely focal point.

Abstract + Artful
A classic herringbone pattern never goes out of style, but this bathroom shows how a splash of color brings a fresh contemporary sensibility to the traditional layout. Jewel-like shades of teal, amber, and burgundy energize the neutral tiles for a playfully vibrant display.

A Sea of Blue
One brilliant hue is all you need to make a major statement, especially when found in the elongated hex tile of this walk-in shower. Once again, frameless glass doors win the best-supporting element since they allow you to fully take in the shower’s design.

Everyday Luxe
This guest bathroom is proof that marble makes everything better. What could have been a standard space is stylistically kicked up a notch with Carrara marble — with marble hex tile on the floor, a marble vanity top, and oversized marble subway tile in the shower. Frameless glass doors visually extend the bathroom and ensure you don’t miss the amazing waterfront view.

Create Contrast
Not all shower tile has to be flashy to create a striking aesthetic. In this walk-in shower, matte black subway tile contrasts perfectly against the glossy white tile on the surrounding walls. Brass fixtures, along with the walnut wedge pegs for hanging towels, add a golden gleam.
