Exciting New Tile Trends for 2017 (And a Few Old Favorites Here to Stay) - Short Hills, NJ

When it comes adding tile to your home in the Short Hills NJ area, we know how hard it can be to decide on your style. With all the options available these days, it's a very, very good time for tile in home design. The general movement we're seeing is towards tile that makes a bold statement, whether it's with interesting shapes, colors, patterns, or textures — and there are more out there than ever before. Here are some of the hottest tile trends for 2017

Zellige Tiles

These traditional clay tiles from Morocco come in almost any color you can imagine, and their subtle texture and shine give them a special fascination. In black or white they're appealingly understated — an alternative to subway tile with just a little bit more zip — while in bright colors they're a total showstopper.

Playful Shapes

Move over, subway tile — it's not just about rectangles anymore. Even if you opt for a safe white, tiles in unusual patterns can add a punch of personality to your space that subway tile just can't touch.

The Hexagon

Perhaps the most prevalent of these shapes is the hexagon — so simple but still a little unexpected at the same time. From teeny tiny to oversize, sleek ceramic to rough terra cotta, hex tiles are cropping up all over.

Terracotta

Terracotta, with its rough texture and variegated color, adds instant old-world charm to any space. For some people the thought of terracotta may recall the shiny, orange-toned tiles that were popular in the 70s and 80s, but the new terracotta has a subtler, more textured, more antiqued look. Terracotta tile also comes in a huge range of colors and patterns.

Vintage-Style Pattern Floors

Everything old is eventually new again, and that includes these intricately patterned tile floors. The possibilities are endless, the tile is relatively inexpensive, and the look is timeless.

Patterned Tiles

Cement tile, with its soothing texture and old-world style, has been popular for some time now, but now there are also lots of other options if you crave a little pattern. Like these tiles above, from Smink Things, whose geometric pattern paired with subtle texture simultaneously feels very timeless and very now.
