The Design Possibilities of Large-Format Tile
There are many reasons to love large-format tile, and they have all contributed to these products’ increasing popularity in recent years. These oversize tiles, available in both strong ceramic and even stronger porcelain, come in a variety of colors and styles that are easily incorporated into multiple design aesthetics. With fewer individual pieces of tile, you can cover a greater surface area in realistic manmade versions of natural materials like wood, marble and other stone. Large-format tiles can be used on both floors and walls, and the scale and size of these tiles can even make spaces appear larger.
Now Trending: Large-Format Tile
As part of the overall popularity of bringing luxe hotel-style design elements into the home, large-format tiles have increasingly made their way into mainstream interior design.
This is especially true of bathroom design. For years, features like large, uninterrupted pieces of smooth marble were something you’d see in luxurious hotels or spas—picture a gleaming marble floor or walls. As demand for this glamourous look has built, it has become more and more common to find features like a large-format tile shower or backsplash added in-home, particularly in primary or en suite bathroom sanctuaries.
Choosing large bathroom tiles for your space can have benefits beyond just looking good. One bonus feature is that there will be fewer grout lines per square foot than you would have with a smaller tile. Some of our largest products are 24x48 inches, which is 8 square feet of uninterrupted tile surface. (Just one more reason to love large shower tiles!)
Sculptural Large-Format Tiles
In addition to mimicking natural materials, large-format tiles also offer exciting possibilities for incorporating texture and other sculptural details. From geometric facets in matte white and black ceramic, to wood-look porcelain tiles with delicate relief patterns, to modern metallic styles with the illusion of 3-D texture, these style-forward oversize pieces favor the bold.
