How to Choose Tiles for Every Room in Your Home

A room-by-room guide to picking tile finishes, sizes and looks that suit how each space is used.

Flooring Tiles

Tiles last for years, so it pays to choose them with the room’s everyday use in mind — not just how a sample looks in the showroom. Here is a simple way to think about each space.

Living rooms

Living rooms are where larger formats shine. Big tiles mean fewer grout lines and a calmer, more spacious look. Marble-look glazed vitrified tiles and high gloss finishes reflect light, while matt and wood-look tiles feel warmer and more relaxed.

Kitchens

Choose floor tiles that are easy to clean and comfortable to stand on. For walls, glazed wall tiles make splashes simple to wipe away. A backsplash is also a good place for a pattern or colour you might not use elsewhere.

Bathrooms

Bathroom floors get wet, so ask about textured or matt options for floors. Glossy wall tiles help a small bathroom feel brighter.

Balconies, parking and outdoors

Outdoor areas face sun, rain and — in parking areas — vehicle loads. Parking, heavy duty and elevation tiles are designed for these conditions.

A quick checklist

  • How much footfall will the area get?
  • Will the floor get wet?
  • How much natural light is there?
  • Do you want the space to feel bright and open, or warm and cosy?
