Large-Format Floor Tiles: Transform Your Space With Style

Get ready to elevate your interior design with the hottest trend - large-format tiles! Not only do they make small spaces feel spacious, but they also give a modern touch to marble or stone-like porcelain. Plus, they require less maintenance with fewer grout lines to clean. 
 
Large-format floor tiles are a versatile choice for a traditional or contemporary look. When using tiles 12x24 or larger in your living room, bathroom, or kitchen, make sure they enhance the space's best features. Need some tips to get started? Here are a few to inspire your design journey.

Utilize the Same Tile Throughout 

Veneto Noce Porcelain Tile

Using the same tile throughout can create a uniform look, making your space feel cohesive. It can also highlight features like bathtubs or make the room seem taller by drawing the eye upward. This contemporary bathroom showcases Veneto Noce tile in various areas. The porcelain tile is available in sizes 12x24 and 16x36, resembling travertine but with easier maintenance. Mixing warm beige, cream, and gray tiles with accent mosaics adds texture and visual interest to the design, creating a beautiful and stylish space.

Create a Similar Color Scheme 

Aria Bianco Porcelain Tile

Creating a room with a monochromatic look can bring a sense of calm and serenity. Using large stone-look tile flooring can make the room feel more spacious and airy. The Aria Bianco polished glaze porcelain tiles offer a soft white background with warm gold veins and come in 12x24 and 24x24 sizes. In this kitchen, light colors flow seamlessly from the stacked stone feature wall to the upper cabinets. The design continues with slightly darker neutrals in the backsplash, countertop, and lower cabinets, tying everything together beautifully.

Match Grout Color with Tile

To make your room look larger, simply match the color of your grout with the color of your tile. Check out this beautiful living room with 24x24 Tierra Ivory tile, a stunning cream and beige porcelain in a matte finish. For an even more spacious look, pair larger tiles with a finer grout line in beige or similar tones to create a seamless flooring appearance. You can also choose the 12x24 option for a different look!

Use Vertical Lines Intentionally 

Antoni Cafe Porcelain Tile

Porcelain wood tile planks should be installed with intention. They can elongate a room, draw the eye to a focal point, or follow the flow of traffic. In this kitchen, the Antoni Café wood tile porcelain planks do all three beautifully. The 6x36 brown tiles add movement to the design. They highlight the width of the island, create a natural flow, and accentuate the traditional fireplace in the next room.

Highlight Tile with a Contrasting Wall Color
