Choosing he Proper Glass and Metal Tiles for Your Home

The transformative power of glass and metal tiles is hard to miss. These timeless finishes create extraordinary settings. They add warmth and depth—and will no doubt make a showstopping statement on walls and floors.

There are many unique ways to bring metallic glass accents into the home. But choosing the proper style, color, texture, and shape is what sets your space apart. How do you go about it you ask? Below we share a few tips on picking proper glass and metal tile.

• Consider quality material that lasts

A linear pattern adds clean, sharp lines to modern bathrooms and kitchens. Plus, the Gray Polished and Honed Linear Glass Mosaic Tile delivers exceptional durability.

A lovely bit of attention to detail goes a long way in selecting material that’s made to last. When revamping the bathroom or kitchen, this is where splurging on quality is crucial. The good news is glass and metal tiles deliver outstanding durability. They require no special care to keep their exquisite shine and tip-top shape for years.

• Choose a color to complement your style

Sometimes all you want is a captivating statement. The Orange Matte Finished Glass Mosaic Tile delivers!

Sure, choosing a practical finish ensures longevity. But the real fun is in picking the colors, patterns, and textures that bring your dream space together. Neutral hues will always be a timeless classic. Think white, beige, brown, and gray. They make for the perfect backdrop. And at the same time, take centerstage without relying on the room’s other elements.

For the more daring, a whole world of bold color awaits! Glass tiles provide a myriad of vibrant hues. Perfect for an eye-catching pop on a backsplash and accent wall.

Anything from personality-filled pink to vivacious red is sure to make a splash. Even better when contrasted against a white or neutral backdrop. Picture this: an iridescent finish paired with vibrant color. Your space has never had this much glamor!

• Leap towards small details with big impact

The unique shape of Pebble Gray Polished Metal Tile creates the illusion of texture, enhanced by a silver shine.

Striking geometric mosaics continue to have a moment in home decor. And, of course, there’s little wonder why. These detailed accents ignite creativity and add a sense of intrigue. In other words, why not give hexagon, basketweave, or penny-round a shot?

While glass and metal mosaics captivate, without harmony, they can overwhelm. Amidst your tile selection, don't forget about neutrals. These can serve to offer a sense of balance—giving the eye a soothing place to rest.

Whether that’s a bold basketweave backsplash paired with white cabinets. Or a vibrant living room accent wall paired with neutral furnishings. Keeping the rest of your scheme muted amplifies the impact of your bold pattern. In turn, making your home decor one-of-a-kind.

• Enhance a sense of space in limited areas

Dazzle and outlast any trend with White Subway Polished Glass Tile!

Looking for ways to create an open and spacious feel? We love the idea of introducing time-tested subway tile. Its clean and simple appearance adds understated elegance. But it’s also this defining characteristic that enhances a sense of space.

Subway tile’s versatility allows for a customized approach beyond the classic offset. Laid in a vertical stack, clean crisp lines make a compact space appear taller. Rendered in a horizontal stack, it creates an illusion of a wider room.

• Embrace mix-media tile for added texture

“A sense of touch” prevails with the Blue Polished and Textured Glass and Metal Mosaic Tile. Its luminous quality is a welcomed bonus in smaller, dimly-lit spaces.

The intricacies of texture seem to be an afterthought in home design. Yet it is no less crucial to the success of a dynamic aesthetic. Our reasoning: texture is what elevates an interior from ordinary to outstanding.

Today, mixed-material tiles make it easier to create a tactile experience without fuss. The pairing of metal and glass fits any décor style, where they add depth, shine, and visual weight.

Textured tiles offer a dimensional look able to draw attention to itself. It is also this contrast of materials that makes for the perfect focal point. Think accent wall, shower floors, fireplace surround, and backsplash glass tiles. Paired with muted hues, the tile’s shape and visual texture speak for itself.
