5 Ways To Style – Metro Carrara

Meet Metro Carrara, the perfect mix of a classic metro tile with a marble effect. Marble has been a standout material in interior design for the past few years and it is not going anywhere soon. The trend has simply become more versatile. During its rise back to popularity for minimalism and a convention within a spacious and clean style kitchen. However, the styling surrounding marble has leaned back towards its roots and further developed to allow for much more versatility such as maximalist and more colourful takes on the styling. Combined with a subway shaped Metro tile, what more could you want!

We are going to talk you through 5 Ways to Style Metro Carrara, from monochromatic to bold and bright, there is something for everyone. If you want to upgrade your Metro game, you are definitely going to want to stick around.

Keep it classic. A monochromatic palette speaks for itself. Use Metro Carrara to tile a bathroom wall or a kitchen splashback, pair with sleek white gloss or matt units and then add pops of matt black to add depth and contrast to your interior. Keeping the space clean and minimal works well with Metro Carrara as it still feels muted but the marble veining adds an element of texture to the room without sacrificing a slick monochrome colourway and minimalist design.

From a minimal colour scheme to a maximalist’s dream. This look is full of joyful colours and playful pieces. With a tile like Metro Carrara, you can create a feel-good space that is perfect for a kitchen made to entertain in or it can be a place for just you to really enjoy.

Our homes are our happy place, so let’s make them shout happy with potted plants and painted bowls. We have paired bold colours that have a deep tone to them, so they feel that little bit more mature. It can be daunting opting for bright colours so you can ease yourself in this way.

Take them a few shades lighter and create a pastel palette if that is more your style. But no matter what, the subway style marble tile is the perfect background to build on.

A favourite among many is the gold and marble combo, it looks effortlessly sophisticated and it is even easier to achieve. Create a kitchen splashback with Metro Carrara and matt white units with gold handles. To build on an atmosphere of grace we chose a traditional looking gold tap but this can be modernised with other options.

Really embrace the gold accents with pieces like a wine rack and utensils adhering to the theme. We added our Adalene Mocha tile, the parquet effect ties this look together and stops the room becoming too light and clinical.

We are big fans of pink tiles in interiors, pair with marble metros and we are in love! Add hints of blush tones and warm neutrals to create a really calming space. The tones of grey within the veining of Metro Carrara pair beautifully with pink accents and create a really cohesive space.

These colours balance a feeling of comfort with positivity and joy. Blush pink makes us feel brighter and optimistic while adding beiges and natural textures give us that comfort and familiarity to round off the room. This combination feels minimal with the opportunity to build it up through the years and create a really eclectic and hearty design. Opt for a more elegant and precise design style by using gold accents throughout, a modern gold tap with a matching drying rack and even gold cutlery for extra edge.

For our fifth way to style Metro Carrara, we are sticking with rich emerald green tones along side a mustard yellow shade. These colours look stunning together and create a very bold look without feeling overwhelming and complex. Recreate the look by tiling all bathroom walls in Metro Carrara with Matrix Mustard gloss tiled in the shower.

We love the idea of an emerald green standing tub surrounded by plants and a mustard yellow bathmat to bring the scheme together. Drape emerald green towels over a rail and finish with a matt black shower screen to contrast with the yellow and complete a bold and beautiful bathroom.

The styling doesn’t have to end there, there are so many possibilities surrounding Metro Carrara! We are here to help inspire you with interior tips that will really maximise your interiors’ potential. With a versatile tile like Metro Carrara, it’s hard to go wrong.
