Inspiration For Tile Colour Combinations

With so many tile options out there, knowing which tile colour combinations you should choose can be hard. Tiles are a great way to inject some texture and character into your rooms and there are lots of fantastic options out there.

Whether you are after a classic monochrome or relaxing neutral, or perhaps you are feeling more daring and want to experiment with bold contrasts, we have you covered here at Topps Tiles.

In this guide, we'll be sharing some of our favourite tile colour combinations, as well as giving you some tips on how you can mix the perfect colours in your home.

Once you have your tile colour combinations decided on, you'll need to think about how you want to lay them. There are lots of options here which can really help to transform your space.

Using different tile colours in different sections of your room or creating an accent wall can help to create a flow and purpose in your space. For example, if you are tiling your bathroom, reserve one tile colour for your bath and shower area. Or if you have an open-plan kitchen and dining space, use one style of tile for the kitchen and another for the dining area.

Half-tiled walls are certainly nothing new but we've recently seen a resurgence in their popularity and they are a great way to mix up colours through your tiles.

Instead of only half-tiling each wall and painting the top half, you should try using two tile colours to create the same effect. Our favourite way to do this is with warm neutrals, but it also looks effective with bold contrasting colours too.

Bathroom and kitchen splashbacks are not only practical but they can also add an extra level of interest to your space. When using different tile colour combinations, reserve one of your tile options for use as a sink or countertop backsplash. Check out our guide for more kitchen backsplash inspiration. This is your chance to really get creative with your kitchen and bathroom splashbacks

Tiles are an incredibly versatile feature to add to your home. As well as combining different tile colour combinations, try playing with different tile laying patterns to accentuate their effect.

For example, if you like traditional horizontal brick bond, why not try a verticle brick bond to give the illusion of added height? Alternatively, if you are mixing two tile colours, the block herringbone pattern is a great way to make a graphic statement.

We've put together a handy tile-laying pattern guide to give you some inspiration.
