Contemporary Style Tile

Contemporary Style in the Kitchen, Bathroom, and Living Room

In the kitchen, contemporary tiles add a stylish touch to backsplashes, offering a streamlined and cohesive look that complements modern cabinetry and countertops. They can create subtle elegance with neutral tones or make a bold statement with striking patterns and colors. For shower walls, contemporary tiles turn your bathroom into a sleek, spa-like retreat, emphasizing simplicity and functionality without compromising on design. When used on fireplaces, contemporary tiles provide a focal point that elevates the overall aesthetic of your living space.

Contemporary Style Tile Shapes and Materials

Contemporary design leans on precise, geometric shapes and a mix of natural and manufactured materials to create visual interest without clutter.

Penny Round Tile

Penny round tile brings a repeating, geometric texture that reads as clean and modern, especially in a monochromatic or two-tone marble finish. It works well on a bathroom floor or as a shower accent.

Waterjet Tile

Waterjet-cut mosaic allows for precise, intricate geometric patterns that natural cutting methods can't achieve, making it a strong fit for a contemporary accent wall or fireplace surround where a crisp, exact pattern matters.

Diamond Pattern Tile

Diamond pattern tile, often in marble or a mixed-material blend, adds movement and geometry to a surface while staying within the clean-lined vocabulary contemporary design calls for.

Natural Stone and Marble

Natural stone, particularly marble in white, gray, and honey tones, is a go-to material for contemporary spaces that want warmth and texture without breaking from a minimalist palette.
