Four tile flooring trends to watch out for!

A trip to the tile store can be as exciting as a vacation; there are many colors, styles, shapes, and sizes to explore!

Ceramics are stylish and sophisticated and comes with a lot of advantages. Durability and easy cleanability come to mind.

From time to time, certain styles will become more popular. Here's what you'll see right now.

Bringing the outdoors in

Anything that reminds us of nature, whether color or shape, is hot right now. That's defined by raised grains, stone, concrete, and other looks that you'll see in our tile shop.

And Speaking of raised wood grains and stone

Wood and stone look tiles are trending hot in 2022. Because of a technology called Inkjet, realistic echoes of wood and stone are possible.

These have all the grains, textures, color, and veining variations created by Mother Nature. Wood-look tile combines the beauty of wood with the function of tile, while stone looks are a more budget-friendly alternative to the real thing.

Marble floors

Just the word evokes thoughts of elegance and luxury. And now we have great news for you

Manufacturers have mastered the marble-look floor tile. They are less porous, more durable, and easier on the budget. So now, to quote a cliche, you can have your cake and eat it too!

They are trending on bathroom floors. One trend is to give the bath an atmosphere of an upscale spa with marble on the floor and tile on the wall.

Encaustic-styles

Genuine encaustics are hand-painted, ornate, and have an artisan look. They use around six colors of clay instead of coloring the glaze.

As you can imagine, genuine encaustics are pretty pricey. However, encaustic styles are a durable, less expensive alternative, especially popular as a floor tile in the kitchen & bath.

You'll get the same color variations. Popular styles range from geometrics to florals to old-world and Victorian.
