Halfway through the year, we are proud to present our verdict on the hottest tile trends of 2024. It's not surprising to see a slew of old tile designs making a much-awaited comeback. This is the year of bold statements on interiors like never before. The darker tile shades are back, and they are here to stay (or, should we say, slay). However, this does not imply that minimalism has gone out of vogue. Pearly whites, earthy beiges, and muted grays are still playing favorites. Though we found it tough to come to a conclusion, the bar was set pretty high when it came to different designs and colors. We have finally chosen the top three trends to help you design your dream space.
Oh Terrazzo, where have you been ?
Drama and retro go hand in hand. We can vouch that vintage tiles never go out of trend. They might lie low for some time, but they are definitely bound to strike avid home designers in a frenzy of terrazzo traffic. Honestly, terrazzo flooring is one that grows on you. From flooring to countertops, terrazzo has never failed to impress. Available in a variety of shades and speckles, the playful nature of the tiles blends in seamlessly with almost any decor. Highly versatile in nature, they are game-changers for high-traffic areas. They do well in bathrooms as accent walls or even as flooring.

The checkerboard patterned tiles have become a staple in the world of interiors. Having gracefully clad the floors for centuries, this tile has stood the test of time and hasn't budged even a bit from the list of the transient tile trends. Ranging from the classic monochrome design in black and white to soothing blues and energizing oranges, the rustic colors undoubtedly give the "wow" factor to any room they are installed in. Nevertheless, it is very important to strike a balance between the size of the tiles and the given room dimensions. There is every chance of the room looking too crowded if the room is too small and the tiles are too large. To avoid chaos, the checkered tiles can be used as a focal point of a room with rather muted interiors.
Something’s fishy
We are sure that it's pretty safe to assume that the fish scale tiles are now the new subway tile of the present. If we had to describe these beauties in a single word, it would, without a doubt, be called 'bold'. Vibrant hues in every color possible are what make these little pearls stand out. Arrange them the orthodox way or add a fun element by putting them randomly to mimic the waves of the ocean. Whatever the case may be, they work perfectly well as kitchen backsplashes as well as bathroom accent walls. If you are someone who doesn't play by the rules, these tiles are your newfound ally.
Talk of the town
Given the hype for everything natural and organic, flooring is no exception. A recent newcomer to the tile town, concrete finish tiles are gaining steady popularity. With shades of gray and beige, they are perfect for getting that raw, industrial finish in your interiors. Ideally suited for large spaces, the muted colors and textured surfaces add an industrial element to monochrome decors centered around minimalism. For creating a breezy, balanced space, opt for gray concrete finish tiles and pair them with natural plants to complement the entire mood.
The year 2024 in tile trends is all about curating spaces that reflect your own unique, quirky tastes. Whether bold or subtle, tile trends will forever be evolving. Who knows, perhaps this is just the start of another design revolution?
