Tile flooring shape trends:
Hexagon tile
Hexagon tiles are very pretty. Don’t they remind you somehow of a classic and contemporary look all at once? Hexagons first got their “red carpet moment” in the early 20th century, when they were typically used in kitchens that were accompanied by subway wall tiles.
They might also provide a similar classic and vintage approach to the subway tile floors.
Even so, you might also see ultra-modern, almost futuristic approaches throughout the years. Just picture a bunch of super clean, sharp lines, whites, blacks, and grays, that come in handy to a very minimalist decor. This is where this futuristic wave of hexagon floor tiles fits in.
Fan tile
If you’ve reached this far, you probably saw various tile trends on Pinterest, including the fan tile, which is also known as the fish scale tile or scallop tile. This mosaic tile is now one of the hottest trends in floor tile, but also wall tile.
Many people are choosing this for their bathroom flooring upgrade. This unique look will definitely make a great impression. If you want something that can bring that modern, retro, whimsical, and contemporary look, go for the fan tile.
The stunning shape will give you the option to play with the colors whatever you see fit. If you want to be subtle, go with classic white, but if you want something bold, then a contrasting color comes in handy!
Round tile
Well, it seems that traditional square tiles are getting out of style, and manufacturers are getting more creative with tile shapes, which offer an eye-catching look in unusual forms. Circular floor tiles are bringing this modern but whimsy vibe to your home.
They’re also known as penny tiles or penny rounds, and they are patterned with small coin-sized circles.
They can also be mixed with contrasting colors and finished if you want a more random and boutique look. However, we wouldn’t bet that the trend will last too long. Round tiles will definitely go out of style, even if they will probably last longer as a backsplash trend.
