While minimalism and Scandi themes have long dominated the interior space, where tones of white have reigned supreme, the timeless appeal of beige is having a resurgence. In this article, discover our favourite beige bathroom tile ideas along with what colour goes with beige bathroom tiles so you can style up your fresh bathroom and be the envy of your friends.
Beige is a great way to add warmth to your bathroom and it can be incorporated through your tiles, accessories or fixings. Here are our favourite beige bathroom tile ideas that prove that the colour is anything but boring.
A subtle step away from white is a delicate beige tone commonly referred to as Bone. It has subtle hints of cream within its base tone providing a warmer finish than classic white.
For this beige bathroom idea, we have used the metro-shaped Linear Bone tile to give a modern edge to a bathroom without being too cold and stark. We love the matt finish of Linear Bone for an added touch of modernity. For a subtle nod to the Scandi vibe, finish this beige bathroom look with raw pine or beech furniture, hints of rattan and pretty ceramics with accents of matt black. If you want some colour, we recommend adding hints of warm cocoa as a great way to introduce colour whilst retaining the beauty of the beige tiles.
Going all out with a geometric design can create a modern beige bathroom. However, this contemporary look is not always in keeping with the property you’re renovating therefore, it’s important to consider how to pair certain tiles together to achieve the right finish.
Strike the perfect balance between contemporary minimalism and pattern in this beige bathroom idea. The beige, when paired with a darker tile such as Staunton Graphite, allow the warm beige tones to pop. To create a balanced timeless feel, complement the beige bathroom tiles with heritage-style pieces like elongated brass tabs and a sleek roll-top bath. To finish this modern beige bathroom idea, moody, warm-toned colours like forest green, midnight blue and burnt orange work perfectly. We recommend looking at classically modern brands like Cox & Cox and Rose & Grey for your accessories.
When we think of heritage or classic bathrooms we typically think of big, grand spaces but when beautifully styled, heritage can be translated into even the most compact of bathrooms thanks to a beige colour palette.
,p>Working with the same range, the variation in the Staunton tile makes it truly versatile. To add texture and depth to this beige bathroom idea, we have opted for the full-sized Staunton Putty tile. In this look, the walls have been tiled halfway in a glossy Simply Whites tile but a good alternative is Matrix's Antique White Gloss. For a touch of classicism, we have added a small roll-top bath to add a touch of grandeur.
Finish the look with a darker beige colour on the walls and streamlined shutters, unfussy art, and some greenery for a luxurious and clean feel.
An industrial feel to a space can add an element of masculinity to a bathroom however, a clever way of avoiding it feeling too masculine is to use a micropattern. Our Compton Sand tile adds a touch of luxury with a polished concrete effect, ideal for adding character and depth to an industrial aesthetic.
In an all-beige bathroom, it’s important to introduce elements of texture to stop the room from looking flat. In this beige bathroom idea, we have made the most of rattan textures through bathroom cabinets and a decorative screen. The use of this texture keeps the look fresh and softens the glossy tiles.
If you have a smaller bathroom, then an XL tile is a great way to incorporate beige as the larger expanse of surface area (aka fewer grout lines) creates a seamless flow. The perfect beige can be found in our Penthouse tile which has a weathered matt texture that mimics a rare type of Phyllite slate found in the Dalradian rocks on the Isle of Arran.
An XL tile can work for both modern and classic beige bathrooms, but ensure to keep your sanitary ware streamlined so the tiles can do all the talking. Your complementary colours will help decide the overall feel of the room, moodier colours tend to feel more classic and light neutrals air on the contemporary side.
To create a beige bathroom that doesn’t break the bank, the key is to look out for a realistic stone effect tile. The varied tones and markings will make it appear more expensive than it is.
The Salerno tile from our Get The Look For Less range is the perfect amount of glossy, it helps bounce the natural light around your room whilst the underlying beige tones keep the overall feel warm and comforting.
As it has a glossy finish, using darker colours won’t make your bathroom feel dingy, we recommend using accents of black to make the beige pop. Avoid using overly glossy paints, you don’t want to contend with the tile and matt paint finishes contrasting with gloss tiles often look more expensive.
Being a neutral colour means that beige makes for an ideal canvas for incorporating bold design choices.
Our porcelain Hemsworth™ Beige tile has a rectangular design that mimics traditional flagstone flooring, making it an ideal way to infuse your space with a contemporary country aesthetic.
In this modern beige bathroom idea, we have paired these tiles with matt black fixings and a large rectangular sink. The subtleness of Hemsworth Beige serves as the perfect canvas for crafting a bold monochromatic space that exudes sophistication.
Introduce the versatility of beige through our Brik tiles, a contemporary twist on classic brickwork that effortlessly brings a modern flair to your bathroom. The subtle stone effect printed on a ceramic base is the perfect way to update your space.
In this beige bathroom idea, we’ve used our Briks Ivory Stone tiles by tiling them halfway up the wall and have used dark grout to make them stand out as a focal point. To complement these bathroom tiles, light furnishings and gold fixtures have been used to infuse a sense of warmth and balance into the space. To complete the look, we recommend opting for natural tones such as pine, sage green, and cream.
Not only is beige a trend in itself, but it can work seamlessly with various interior trends.
With three neutral colours with a cool undertone, our MyStone tile range is perfect for achieving a modern minimalist or Scandi backdrop in your bathroom or kitchen.
Featuring a textured surface, the MyStone tile range is an ideal canvas for creating a visually striking space. In this beige bathroom idea, we’ve paired the Marfil tile with minimalist chrome fixings to create a balanced space.
Challenge the stereotype of beige being dull with our Durba Stone Wave tiles. Far from ordinary, these tiles feature a structured pattern that mimics the captivating ripple effect left by water in the sand.
In this unique beige bathroom idea, the Durba Stone Wave tiles serve as a visually interesting backsplash, adding character without overwhelming the space. Paired with a dark wooden cabinet and mirror, alongside large white basins and a charming roll-top bath, these tiles effortlessly enhance the overall aesthetic.
To finish the look, opt for autumnal colours, such as sage green, walnut, and tan.
