Remember the days when tile was installed two ways: grid or diamond pattern? Yes, us too, but the design and creativity with tile is exploding right now! From the shapes to the materials and array of colors, it’s a good time to be alive and sourcing tile for your home! In fact, one of 2017’s biggest design trends in the kitchen and bathroom is PATTERN!
The Simple Subway Tile-
We have seen the simple subway tile for many years now and simply put, it’s a classic size and horizontal installation pattern that will always be in style. For those of you who might be interested in a little zing for your design, consider the subway tile with a unique pattern such as a Crosshatch, Herringbone, or Diagonal Offset!

Combining Sizes and Pattern-
Maybe you’re more attracted to a subtle tile with a change in orientation! Below the Affordable Companies completed a shower renovation that really expands the eye, top to bottom and left to right, making the shower appear large, spacious and bright all by using a variation of sizes and install orientations (Horizontal and Herringbone) to complete the design.

Patterned Tile-
Do you have a small space to really pack a punch in? If so, consider a patterned cement tile by one of the several brands at the Affordable Companies! Like so many tiles, there is truly a color and pattern for everyone’s style! Here are a few of our favorites from Caledonia Stone and Tile (sold at the Affordable Companies).
