Fine Line

When you introduce a new tile style, tricks can elevate your design! Pay attention to the size and color of the grout lines. If you're going for a rustic look with Brickstone Ivory, choose a grout color that mimics real brick mortar. We love Custom Building Products’ Oyster Gray #386 and Bleached Wood #545!

While it's often advised to match the grout color with the porcelain tile base, using authentic mortar colors makes your brick installation look even more realistic. Plus, ensure your installer uses a grout joint size of ½" to ¾" to enhance that lovely mortared appearance!

Step Up Your Style

Finding a beautiful, aged brick floor under your carpet is a surprise that rarely happens. But don’t worry! You can still achieve stunning results with porcelain bricks. They make gorgeous and unforgettable floors. One of our favorite brick tile installations features tiles arranged in a herringbone pattern. It’s a creative touch that really stands out!

Herringbone designs are stylish and versatile. They fit perfectly in both traditional and ultra-modern spaces. Can you imagine folding laundry in this beautiful mudroom? Houzz users definitely think so! They overwhelmingly voted “Yes!” This stunning laundry room became one of the most popular images on the site. It even helped MSI win a 2016 Best of Design Award!
