How to make your room look bigger with your tiling

When it comes to home renovation, creating the illusion of more space is a common goal. One effective way to achieve this is through smart tiling choices. With the right techniques and design choices, you can make a room look bigger with tile.

In this blog, we’ll explore some smart tiling options that can impact your spatial perception and give your room a larger appearance.

 

Use Light-Coloured Tiles

Using light-coloured tiles can create the illusion of more space. Light colours reflect more light and make the room appear brighter and more open. Choose tiles in shades of white, cream, beige, or light grey for a more spacious feel.

Lay Tiles Diagonally

Diagonal tile patterns create an optical illusion that makes the room look wider. When tiles are laid on a diagonal angle, it creates a visual flow that draws the eye towards the corners of the room, making the space feel more expansive.

Choose Large Format Tiles

Large format tiles are another great option for making a room look bigger. Larger tiles have fewer grout lines, which can break up the visual flow and make a room feel more cluttered. Additionally, large format tiles create a seamless look that can give the illusion of more space.

Install Tiles Vertically

Installing tiles vertically can make a room feel taller, which in turn makes the space feel larger. Vertical tiles draw the eye upwards and create a sense of height. This is particularly effective in rooms with low ceilings.

Use Glossy Tiles

Glossy tiles reflect light and create a mirror-like effect, which can make a room appear larger. This effect is particularly effective in small bathrooms or kitchens, where the reflective surface can bounce light around the space and make it feel brighter and more open.

Choose a Grout Colour That Matches the Tile

When selecting a grout colour, choose a shade that matches the colour of the tile. This creates a seamless look that can make a room feel more spacious. Using a contrasting grout colour can break up the visual flow and make a room feel smaller.

Consider Textured Tiles

Textured tiles can add depth and dimension to a space. They can also create the illusion of more space by drawing the eye towards the textured surface. Textured tiles are particularly effective in small rooms or areas that lack natural light.

In conclusion, smart tiling choices can have a significant impact on the perception of space in a room.

By using light-coloured tiles, laying tiles diagonally, choosing large format tiles, installing tiles vertically, using glossy tiles, choosing a grout colour that matches the tile, and considering textured tiles, you can make a room look bigger with tile. With these techniques, you can create a space that feels open, bright, and spacious.
