Traditional Style Tile

Traditional Style in the Kitchen, Bathroom, and Living Room

In the kitchen, traditional tiles add a touch of elegance to backsplashes, creating a stunning visual accent that enhances the overall design. For shower walls, these tiles bring a luxurious feel, transforming your bathroom into a relaxing, spa-like retreat. When used on fireplaces, traditional tiles provide a beautiful focal point that adds warmth and character to your living space. Traditional tiles come in a variety of materials, including ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone, allowing for customization to suit your personal taste and interior style.

Traditional Style Tile Shapes and Materials

Traditional design relies on intricate pattern and rich, formal materials more than any single color palette.

Arabesque Tile

Arabesque shapes bring the ornate, curved pattern work most associated with classic and Old World design, a strong choice for a kitchen backsplash or fireplace surround meant to be a genuine focal point.

Diamond Pattern Tile

Diamond pattern tile, particularly in marble, adds formal geometry and movement without straying from a traditional, timeless look.

Natural Stone and Marble

Natural stone, especially marble, is the material most closely tied to traditional design, bringing genuine luxury and a look that has remained consistent in popularity for generations.

Subway and Penny Round Tile

Classic subway tile remains a traditional staple, especially in a simple stacked bond. Penny round tile brings a more vintage-inspired texture, often used on bathroom floors in traditional-style homes.
