About Porcelain Mosaic Tile
Porcelain mosaic tile is a perennial designer favorite, and with good reason. The near-endless variety of sizes, shapes, colors and finishes means that whatever project is on your list, you’re guaranteed to find one that perfectly suits your space and style. Here are some characteristics to consider:
• Shapes: From angular hexagons and rhombuses to gracefully curved arabesque, petal and fan shapes, porcelain mosaic tiles come in just about any shape you can imagine.
• Layout: Herringbone, basketweave and simple track stack patterns are proof that even standard rectangle and square tiles feel special when they’re arranged this beautifully.
• Color and Finish: Porcelain tiles just keep getting better and better—from matte to gloss and every finish in between, and every color of the rainbow.

A Note About Porcelain Mosaic Floor Tile
While any porcelain mosaic is technically suitable for use on your floors, there are some spaces that need extra consideration. For instance, when it comes to picking out out porcelain mosaic tile for shower floors, small-scale sizes and shapes (like penny rounds or hexagon porcelain mosaic tile) equate to more grout lines spaced closer together, which increases traction underfoot.
More Ideas for Using Porcelain Mosaic Tile in Your Home
• Fireplaces: Switching up the look of your fireplace front is an easy way to change the whole look of a room. Updating your fireplace tile is a great trick for making a traditional space feel more transitional, or for adding vintage character to newer-build homes.
• Entryways: Why not try a pop of bold design right inside the front door? Plus, if you don’t have a separate foyer area, mosaic tile can visually distinguish your entryway area from the rest of your main floor.
• Powder Rooms: Even a pocket-sized space feels inviting and intentional with the right finishes. Try installing porcelain mosaic tiles on your powder room floor, walls or both.
