All Shapes and Sizes

One way to ensure black tiles will look great in your space is to focus on the variety of shapes you can choose from. Black subway tile takes a classic shape and makes it feel fresh again. Black hexagon tile adds a subtle graphic element to any surface, with exaggerated shapes like pickets offering an unexpected twist on the six-sided form. Stars, crosses, arabesques and petals lend black tile a playful element that is in compelling contrast to such a dark color.

Black-Tile Showers and Bathrooms

One space where we see more customers choosing to install black tile is the bathroom. There are so many chic options for incorporating black tile in bathrooms, from natural slate and marble, to ceramic, glass and porcelain. And black tile isn’t just for bathroom floors and backsplashes; we also love the look of a black-tile shower, whether it’s floor-to-ceiling shower walls, a small black penny round tile on the shower floor, or a stunning black tile mosaic that transforms turns an ordinary storage niche into a work of art.
