The 2018 Trend Hijack: Quartz Tiles

Whether you’re looking to breathe new life into your kitchen, bathroom or any other area of your home, we’re here to help. In today’s post, we’re drawing inspiration from some of this year’s hottest home design trends and exploring how you can use gorgeous quartz tiles in a number of ways to make stylish, on-trend and enviable updates throughout your property.

High contrast colour schemes

We’ve seen a shift towards bolder, brighter colours over recent years, and 2018 is upping the stakes again – with even more high-contrast colour palettes taking over the interior design world. Whether you go for an edgy monochrome vibe or something a little softer, working both light and dark tones into your decor is sure to deliver a stunning and up-to-date finish.

One powerful way to pull of this look with a luxurious feel is to pair crisp, white quartz tiles with some vibrant contrasting tones. From zesty yellows and bright greens that bring a wonderfully summery feel to muted mocha shades that lend a softer element to the blend, don’t be afraid to embellish areas with colour to create a characterful and striking aesthetic.

Moody palettes

If you’re not afraid to buck the all-white trend, why not create an impactful interior that’s bursting with ambience using dark, moody shades? Whether it’s your living room, bedroom, kitchen or hallway, creating on-trend interiors with a dramatic and mysterious vibe is sure to push the boundaries of interior design to the next level. Think black quartz tiles with lighter shades of grey for a crisp and clean style, or flourishes of regal, ruby red and amethyst on upholstery and soft furnishings.

Large format tiles

While metro tiles have been a mainstay of modern interior design for years, there’s been a recent shift towards using large format tiles with fewer grout lines to create sleek, spotless spaces. From kitchen splashbacks to bathroom floors, there are tons of ways to use quartz floor and wall tiles, allowing you to easily embrace a fresh new feel.

With their reflective properties and a glossy finish, these sparkly tiles lend a certain elegance to both walls and floors, and work brilliantly in large format, even in smaller areas – making them the perfect choice for embracing this tiling trend of the moment.

Tone on tone

Another colourful trend that’s got interior designers excited in 2018 is the idea of using one tone throughout to create an interesting and contemporary look. Far from bland, using the same shade consistently can serve as an effective way of adding depth and definition to your home – and introducing a myriad of different textures in the same hue will really make the space pop.

From soft sage to stony grey, using a variety of textures such as quartz wall tiles against matt painted surfaces and furniture painted to match will effortlessly tie the whole aesthetic together.
