Effective options for contemporary tiling for the kitchen

Contemporary tiling in the kitchen can be an effective way to stylize your kitchen, and create a stunning visual effect. Different options to achieve this include:

• Using large format tiles- one of the latest contemporary tiling trends involves using large format tiles for both floors and walls, especially in the kitchen. This can have a strong visual impact, with the joins between tiles barely visible. Why not opt for the same grout colour to minimize any potential contrast, and choose neutral colours for a classic, timeless effect?
• Using timber effect floor tiles- another current trend for tiling involves using timber effect floor tiles. These are designed to look just like a hardwood floor, and for contemporary kitchens this can be a stunning design choice. Available in a range of colours, from greys and blues, to browns and creams, this is sure to suit any kitchen design.
• Using the right tiling layout- currently, grid tiling layouts for the whole kitchen are popular for contemporary spaces. This is even used effectively for creating a tiling feature wall or splash back area, as a contrasting grout colour is used to add character and to attract attention.
