Despite their resurgence in popularity, terracotta tiles still offer a timeless quality in the home, creating a rich and rustic aesthetic that is bursting with character, texture and charm. These classic tiles are available in a wide selection of different shapes, styles and finishes, ranging from smooth matte options to rough textures and colourful tile glazes, allowing you to create your own unique design style.

Trends in Natural Stone Tiles

Natural stone tiles are another timeless choice for the home with options available in an endless selection of luxurious colours and patterns. From luxe marble tiles to Mediterranean travertine tiles and more, you are most definitely spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing natural stone tiles for your project! This year, we are seeing an immense rise in popularity of creamy toned travertine tiles, gold veined marbles and even mossy toned green marble tiles. Taking a step away from the traditional glossy tile surfaces we’ve seen in the past, this year is all about embracing earthy, tactile textures in natural stone. From lush tumbled or honed stone finishes to decadent leathered looks, modern natural tile designs aim to enhance the innate beauty of the stone by emphasising its natural characteristics.

Filled with a rich sense of character, the elegant Bursa collection is a showcase of texture and classic natural beauty! A warm marble tile, Bursa can be used as a floor or wall tile solution throughout your home’s interior spaces for an earthy and tactile vibe.

Exploring Rich & Earthy Textures

Modern Australian tile trends are embracing rich and earthy textures in other forms aside from natural stone tiles! Contemporary ceramic and porcelain tiles are also being designed to include more of a sense of texture, allowing you to mix and match different tile finishes to create stunning layered looks. Glossy and matte finishes can be combined and layered to create a wonderfully varied tactile experience in a colour scheme while rough textured tiles add a striking aesthetic in outdoor areas. When creating your home’s colour and materials palette, make sure to take the time to carefully explore your options in terms of tile finishes to create a distinct and stylish look!

Handmade tiles will feature variations from one tile to the next, making each tile unique while creating a rich and varied look. A wonderfully tactile handmade ceramic tile series, the Arabian collection will fill your design scheme with a strong sense of character and timeless charm.

Warm Neutral Tones & Vivid Feature Colours of Australian Tile Trends

Tile colour trends this year are reflective of natural colour palettes, combining rich and warm neutral tones with bold and vivid feature elements to create a layered and varied look. Neutral tones such as warm white, cream and charcoal replace the cooler neutral tones popular in interior design over the last decade, creating a warm and cosy experience in the home. Feature colours are directly inspired by nature with lush ocean blue tones being especially popular along with mossy greens, warm browns and terracotta tones.

Available in a selection of warm and rich colours, the stunning Oasis collection features a variety of tile shapes that can be interlocked with each other to form vibrant patterns in a classic style.
