Bathroom Tile Trends - Westchester County - 3rd Quarter 2011
1. Natural Stone look - Both natural stone and porcelain that looks like natural stone are hot. Customers love the color variation from a design perspective (plus, it helps hide the dirt). Chiseled edges are also stylis.
2. Subway tile - Rectangular shapes are in, and so is a bricklay. This is both old and new at the same time. Also, the longer size/shape elongates the space.
3. Light/neutral color - Lighter colors make the space look larger. They give it a more open as well as clean looking feel.
4. Punch it up with border - Whether it's natural stone, glass, metal or porcelain, most bathrooms loke better with a border on the walls to add some visual intrique. It gives the bathroom life, personality and flair. I love to jazz it up with fun sizes/shapes, but also I like to keept he colors neutral. After all, bathroom tile is pretty permenant and you want the border to be timeless and not to pigeon hole you too much from a color perspective. I'd rather see customers add color via the towels/accessories/shower curtains, etc. By staying neutral in color, it will be timeless and survive many towel color/paint color changes as well as potential new owners.
5. Thin Grout lines. These look better + they are easier to clean + the grout tends to last longer.
