1. Wood-effect tiles
Wood has never really gone out of style so choosing a wood-effect tile range for your home is always going to be a safe bet. What has changed is the quality of printing and the impressive range of wood look tiles available. From on-trend parquet-style flooring to modern, minimal-style planks, realistic wood-effect tiles will continue to dominate our interiors throughout 2025.

2. Textured tiles
With a growing trend for tone-on-tone colour schemes, different textures in the same colour scheme can be combined to create interest and diversity.
Look for tiles in tactile natural stone, terracotta and textured zellige-style porcelain designs. Combining matt and glossy tiles is an effective design move too, adding an extra dimension to your scheme.
Our textured tile ranges include rustic tumbled stones, splitface tiles, zellige-style tiles and miniature mosaics in a range of tactile materials.

3. Innovative tile layouts
From sassy stripes to zany zig zags and opulent ombre colour transitions, tile layouts are becoming bolder and more creative.
Brick or metro and square tiles are the best tiles for creating interesting designs; you’ll have the pick of every colour and size and they’re easy to fit too.
Classic tile layouts like brick bond and herringbone designs are still popular but look for more modern, streamlined vertical or horizontal stacked designs to bring your kitchen or bathroom design bang up to date.

4. Chequerboard tiles
With its classic looks and tremendous versatility, the age-old chequerboard tile design is still trending in 2025.
Give this design a modern twist by opting for tiles in shades other than the traditional black and white. Softer earthy hues add a sophisticated twist to a design that’s been in style for millennia.
This clever design can make small rooms appear larger if laid diagonally and it works surprisingly well in all styles of home, from classic to modern.

5. Terracotta tiles
Another classic tile, terracotta is firmly back in style this year. The trend for paired back colour schemes and tactile natural textures has projected terracotta back into the spotlight.
Attractive, durable and versatile, this hard-working tile is the perfect choice if you want to add a rustic, Mediterranean-inspired element to your kitchen or bathroom.

6. Warm neutral shades
The trend of grey and white everything everywhere is being replaced by warmer, welcoming beige tones.
Look for tiles in natural materials like stone and terracotta and pair them with porcelain tiles in soft, earthy shades of brown, beige, sand, cream and ochre.
If you want to stick to just one neutral shade, try combining tiles with different textures to add variety and interest.

7. Patterned tiles
From spectacularly speckled terrazzo tiles to delicate, vintage-inspired, hand-painted designs, patterned tiles have made a remarkable comeback and are dominating many design schemes this year.
If you’re choosing tiles for a modern kitchen or bathroom, terrazzo is top of the list. Its vast range of multicoloured chips makes this one of the most versatile tile types for contemporary kitchens and bathrooms.

8. Pink tiles
Helped along by Barbie-mania, pink is one of the hottest interior design colours this year.
Soft, millennial pink hues are still on trend but expect deeper shades along with pastel hues to make an impressive style impact.
Pink tiles can be combined with other shades like green and black, as well as a host of neutral shades to create a bathroom or kitchen that’s contemporary or more vintage in style.

9. Blue tiles
With several leading paint companies and designers toting different shades of blue as their top colours for 2025, the popularity of this calming shade is showing no signs of slowing down. Valspar’s ‘Encore Blue’ and Benjamin Moore’s ‘colour of the year 2025’ are calming, mid-blue tones, well suited to all styles of home.
You’ll be able to find a wide range of blue tiles to suit your home and your budget.

10. Bold colour schemes
As well as soft, earthy colour palettes, bigger, bolder and brighter colour schemes are helping to revive our kitchens and bathrooms in 2025.
Colour blocking, colour drenching and injecting unexpected pops of bright colour to smaller areas are welcome additions to our homes this year.
If you’re picking a colour you have never used before or are unsure what colour/s to introduce to your home, try choosing a few sample tiles in different shades to see which colours work best in your space
