Make a Style Statement With Marble Floor and Wall Tiles

As a material that’s been used for centuries to create iconic sculptures and buildings, as well as stunning interiors, marble has well and truly stood the test of time. As a natural stone, it’s incredibly durable and elegant with endless styling options, and despite never really going out of favour, it’s currently undergoing yet another renaissance – adding opulence to homes across the country.

From stunning floors to marvellous walls, in this blog, we’re exploring how you can make a magnificent style statement with marble floor and wall tiles throughout your home and keep up to date with this year’s latest trends.

Create a classic look

When we think of marble, we typically think of classically styled homes with plush interiors and period features, which is where marble really comes into its own. Whether you’re renovating a Victorian townhouse or a modern period-style property, you can impress guests with heritage marble interiors. Best suited for areas such as kitchens, dining rooms and living rooms, marble floor tiles will add texture and beauty with their unique colouring and natural veins. Use larger marble floor tiles in dove grey tones to create a sleek and cool dining area, or opt for softer brown tones to add warmth and character to kitchens.

Add brilliance to your bathroom with faux-marble bathroom tiles

As a natural stone, marble is porous and susceptible to staining, so it isn’t advised for use in bathrooms – unless you’re prepared for a lot of upkeep sealing the stones. However, there are a great deal of faux marble bathroom tiles, like the Imarmi Carrara that are suitable for walls and floors. Brilliantly mimicking the real deal, porcelain tiles offer a fabulous way to style your bathroom, allowing you free reign to use them wherever and however you like. Use marble mosaics in showers and alcoves for decorative features, tile floor to ceiling with marble wall tiles for a seamless look or add a statement marble floor that mixes up the grains to really stand out – either way, you’re sure to bring elegance and style to your bathroom design.

Mix marble with modern interiors

With such a stunning material, marble also lends itself to modern interiors, but it’s about finding the right floor or wall tiles to balance contemporary with traditional. In smaller areas, like a kitchen splashback, why not bricklay marble wall tiles to create a striking mosaic effect as an interesting and funky feature? You can give it an extra modern twist with dark grey grout to add tile definition and contrast – but always use the correct sealant with real marble to prevent kitchen wall tiles from staining. Alternatively, create contradictions with marble floor tiles married with modern pieces like chunky wooden furniture, bright fabrics and metal touches to provide an eclectic mixture of old and new. You can even make a feature wall with marble wall tiles for a lasting impression and an exuberant finish to any room.

However you decide to incorporate marble into your home, be it real or faux marble tiles, you can guarantee timeless and luxurious style. For more inspiration on how to marvel with marble, take a look at our superb selection of marble floor and wall tiles to find the perfect tiles for you.
