KITCHEN TILE -What are today's trends?
Design trends come and go, what’s hot today may
not be so hot tomorrow.
If you’re planning a kitchen remodel or just
planning on a kitchen facelift,
how can you be sure that what you choose will
stand the test of time and not shortly look dated?
When consulting with my clients my advice is
“choose the highest quality materials within your
budget and pick what you like”.
Sounds easy yet can be a daunting task.
Realistically since you’re living with your decisions
it’s important to like the tile you’ll be installing
whether you’re tiling yourself or hiring professional
tile contractors to complete your project.

What are today’s trends in tile with regards to
kitchen backsplashes and countertops?
Let’s face it, granite slab countertops rule
supreme followed by soild surface materials such
as Silestone, Corian and concrete. Tile
countertops though not as popular as it once was
has continued to be at the cutting edge of kitchen
design trends especially in regards to the
backsplash.
Tiles in travertine, granite, marble, slate and other natural stones have proven to have the staying
power that homeowners can be sure to get the best return on investment by:
A. Warming up contemporary kitchen designs
B. Adding texture to smooth surfaces and straight lines.
C. Appealing to a wide array of styles and tastes.
Glass tiles in mosaic and subway patterns have emerged as popular alternatives to natural stone tiles
and are very easy to maintain in cooking areas where grease can be a problem and don’t forget about
ceramic and porcelain tiles available in a variety of shapes, sizes and finishes unheard of just a few
years ago. Stainless steel tiles and bronze tile inserts can add just what is needed to a boring tile
pattern on your kitchen backsplash.
Don’t be satisfied with the ordinary. Sometimes just having another person involved with the planning
of your kitchen design can infuse the creative juices necessary for a project moving forward.
Hiring a design professional will have its weight worth in gold since a professional kitchen designer is
up to date on the latest trends and can suggest what would benefit your remodeling project to its
fullest potential.
Think about it this way. Have you ever flipped through a kitchen and bathroom design magazine
looking for solutions to your design dilemmas only to come away more confused? Your design
professional can help since they have seen up close the final products hundreds of times.
If you’re stuck on what tile to put in your kitchen consider the function and get professional advice on
the practical aspects of the tile you’re considering.
The web is a great place to start looking.
Installing tile that looks nice but doesn’t last or hold up to everyday use
is unwise no matter what today’s trends are.
