Tile House — Colour Blocking, Plug and Play
Colour Blocking
The trend of colour-blocking with tiles is reshaping modern interiors, transforming walls and floors into bold design statements. By pairing contrasting colours and clean geometric shapes, one can create defined zones and graphic patterns that bring clarity and personality to any space.
The “plug-and-play” concept makes this approach effortless. With Tile House’s curated collections, tiles are designed to work together, allowing designers and homeowners to mix shades, textures, and finishes with confidence.
Use colour-blocking to define areas in open-plan spaces, such as a dining nook within a kitchen, or to distinguish wet and dry zones in a bathroom. Stick to two or three complementary hues to maintain balance while amplifying visual impact.
Continuous Colour
Texture is key to keeping the look dynamic. Combine matte and glossy finishes, experiment with ribbed tiles, or incorporate mosaic details to create depth while maintaining a cohesive palette. Even when using a single colour, subtle shifts in texture or tile format can add a refined layer of interest.
Extend your palette beyond the floor, continue the colour onto walls and ceilings for an immersive, contemporary feel. Keep furniture, window treatments, and artwork neutral to let the tiled surfaces shine.
Plug and Play
Tile House’s Nuances and Forever Colour Collections offer endless possibilities for creative expression. Their modular, easy-to-combine designs make it simple to build bold, structured interiors that reflect both precision and playfulness.
The Nuances collection is a range of neutral and coloured matt tiles, in large formats and mosaics. The Forever Colour Collection is made up of neutral and coloured tiles in matt, gloss and speckled finishes. They are available in a small square and subway format.
Discover how you can plug, play, and colour-block your way to a more expressive space.
