They say that there’s no such thing as an original idea, and that fashion and trends work in cycles. At Home Beautiful we’d say this is definitely true – trends flow on from other trends and new looks are always evolving from other concepts. With subway tiles continuing to track their way into our homes we love seeing this trend evolve with nuances of colour and texture.
Choosing tiles for the kitchen and bathroom is a daunting task but if you look back in time you’ll find some timeless looks that continue to endure. A glazed subway tile is one of them – even the crackled ones showing the patina of age in heritage buildings and public spaces - it’s a style that translates very easily into a residential space to great effect.
The best part is the versatility of the look you can create by laying them in either a classic or contemporary pattern.
The good news is that's how trends work - ever evolving and changing. So whatever tiles you choose for your kitchen or bathroom, as trends progress you're less likely to find your choices are no longer in style.
