Small bathroom tile ideas – how to make a big splash in a little space

SMALL BATHROOM TILE IDEAS

USE A COLORFUL ACCENT SPLASHBACK

Many associate incorporating tiles into any space with a big budget but using a small amount of tiles can make a big impact without breaking the bank. We love it when bathroom tile ideas pack a small bathroom with print and pattern, creating a maximalist look with an accent backsplash as a central feature.

GO ALL OVER WHITE FOR A BIGGER SMALL SPACE

It's no news to most of us that using one color throughout makes a space look bigger but we love seeing how striking this looks in action every time - a much easier way to increase size than worrying about small bathroom layout ideas.

GO DARK AND GLOSSY

Don’t be tentative about using dark colors in a small space, they can fool the eye into thinking a ceiling is higher than it is and a dark tone is a practical choice for this area of the home. This is a trick often used in powder room ideas.

CHOOSE A SOFT PALETTE WHEN INCORPORATING PATTERN

Shower enclosures can be used as their own design vehicle - allowing you to create an eye-catching area in a bathroom that can become it's focal point. It's tempting to go all out when we decide to do down the pattern route but often restraint can have more impact - think about using a minimal color palette and a hint of a pattern to create a space with finesse, an approach that folds in well to current bathroom trends.

LAYER TILING INTO YOUR SCHEME

Why not take a decorative approach to your small bathroom tile ideas  and fold them into a layered scheme? As above, you might not have thought of blue as one of the colors that goes with green, but by being adventurous, you can create a big impact.

TRICK THE EYE WITH FLOOR TILES

You'd be forgiven for thinking smaller tiles work better in small bathrooms but oversized pattern and larger tiles add a sense of drama and a little visual trickery. When it comes to floor types, these generously sized encaustic tiles from Maitland Poate in a softly worn color palette fool the eye into thinking the floor is bigger than it is.
