Which tiles to choose for a small bathroom: when size matters

29.05.2023 10:55

The traditional material used for finishing a bathroom, no matter what size it is, is ceramic tiles.

BelNovosti online publication expert designer Yulia Tychino shared some advice that will definitely come in handy if you decide not to deviate from tradition and lay tiles on the walls and floor of your bathroom.

First of all, we think it would be wise to dispel the myth that the larger the tile, the smaller the space appears.

This opinion can hardly be called fair – at least because a miniature mosaic on the walls of a tiny bathroom will also not look the best.

The optimal size in this case is 10 by 10 cm.

If you choose tiles with such parameters, you will avoid the need to cut tiles again and will also achieve the desired effect of visual expansion of space.

In addition to the size of the tile, its shape is also important.

Laying classic rectangular or square tiles is already quite boring, so if you do not want the bathroom to be boring, try replacing these options with a "hog" with a chamfer along the edge, hexagonal tiles or diamonds.
