Think tile is just for kitchens and bathrooms? Think again. Today’s tile can be a work of art, a design centerpiece, and even a smart replacement for traditional materials in nearly every room of your home.
At Griffin’s Carpet Mart Inc. in Sebring, we love showing homeowners how to reimagine their spaces with tile—and not just on the floor.
Make an Entrance
Tile is the perfect choice for entryways. Not only does it handle dirt and moisture with ease, but it also makes a stylish first impression.
-
Try a patterned mosaic or decorative border.
-
Use durable porcelain that stands up to heavy traffic.
Elevate Your Kitchen Backsplash
The right tile backsplash adds style and personality to your kitchen.
-
Subway tile remains a classic, but consider color, size, or texture variations.
-
Mosaic accents or stacked glass tiles add shimmer and contrast.
-
Match grout color for a seamless look or go bold with contrast.
Statement Showers & Bathrooms
Let your bathroom be more than functional. Tile can turn it into a retreat.
-
Use floor-to-ceiling tile in the shower for luxury appeal.
-
Try contrasting shapes (hexagons, arabesques) on the shower floor.
-
Consider accent walls in bold hues or marble-look finishes.
Unexpected Spaces to Try Tile
-
Laundry rooms: Bright patterns or colorful mosaics make chores more fun.
-
Fireplaces: A tiled surround adds drama and color to a focal wall.
-
Accent walls: Use textured tile in a dining or living area for visual interest.
-
Outdoor areas: Extend your living space with weather-resistant tile on patios or pool decks.
Mix and Match with Confidence
One of the best things about tile is how it plays with other materials. Try pairing:
-
Tile with carpet for zoned spaces
-
Wood-look tile next to real hardwood for visual flow
-
Matte tile with glossy accents for texture and shine
