Latest trends in kitchen tiles

31 January 2022

Tiles have the ability to create unique atmospheres, endowing the kitchen with personality and charisma. The kitchen has evolved and design has become its most important feature in the home, its functionality (although still important) taking second place. 

To get the design of your kitchen just right and to ensure that it reflects your personality to perfection, it is useful to know what the latest trends in kitchen tiles are.

Kitchen with marble-effect tiles 

One of the best tile ideas for the kitchen is always marble. This timeless and classic material is ideal for those who are looking for a discreet yet elegant finish. 

Marble-effect ceramic tiles are the perfect option for taking advantage of the aesthetic benefits of this material and, at the same time, eliminating annoying joints, achieving a uniform and clean finish.

Hydraulic tiles

If you are a lover of the classic and vintage style, hydraulic tiles are a choice that will give your kitchen a touch of character that will reflect your personality. They are the perfect option for combining with furniture with clean lines and in a single colour. This combination of furniture and hydraulic tiles has the power to fill the whole room with personality.

Underground-style tiles

Among the trends in kitchen decoration, the underground-style tile cannot be missed. These tiles with a retro look have everything you need to make your kitchen a success. 

Whether as a complete wall covering or as a plinth on the worktop, this type of tile is a real eye-catcher in the kitchen. Ideally, choose a colour that contrasts with the furniture to intensify the effect.

Kitchen with stone-effect tiles

Stone is back in fashion when it comes to kitchen tiles, and it is not surprising given the wide variety of types of natural stone that can be imitated. 

This type of tile provides a warm and rustic ambience that combines perfectly with the modern style of the rest of the kitchin to create a unique contrast. Whether in large format or small format options, kitchens clad with stone effect tiles are a trend to be reckoned with.

The kitchen tile is, in itself, a form of protection for the walls in this damp area of the house. However, to provide additional protection, specially designed glass panels that are resistant to high temperatures and humidity can be installed.
