How to choose the right Tile? Sizes, Shapes, and Colours
Most people who are planning on selecting new tiles during home construction or renovation, often struggle to determine where to start. And it’s easy to see why. With so many tile options out there in the open market, it’s easy to get lost in the endless choices. In addition to this, it’s also quite difficult to find the right characteristics that will help you narrow down your options.
Should you choose a colour you like first, or prioritise the right design? Should you optimise your decision-making for the right shapes and patterns, or should you first choose a tile material that you like? Questions like these may likely be leaving you confused, which is bound to spark some unhealthy frustration. Well, if you’re currently going through all of this, fear not. In this blog, we are going to walk you through everything you’ll need to know to select the right floor tile for your home.
1.Brainstorm
The very first thing that you should do when you decide to select a new floor tile for your home is to allow your mind to roam and consider all options. While this may initially feel scary because it’s possible to drown in the endless choices available, it’s quite a helpful exercise. It will help you identify what you like, and what you don’t like. Flick through a bunch of tile options and see what styles appeal to you. In addition to this, take time to think about your home’s interior décor and which styles would best match that aesthetic. While this may not direct you to the perfect tile, it will be sure to point you in the right direction at the very least.
2.Consider Your Rooms Dimensions
Once you’ve found a bunch of options that appeal to you, it will be time to separate the wheat from the chaff and narrow down your selection. For this, considering specifications such as the dimensions of your rooms and the way these details match up with the size of each tile choice, will be sure to help you cut out a few options. If you have big rooms, you should prioritise bigger tiles. And Visa versa.
3.Go with Your Gut
Finally, once you’ve come up with a list of 3-5 of your top picks, it will be time to cut down and find your final winner. For this, it would be best to simply go with your gut. Look through your options and see which one stands out to you the most. If that choice feels right, then you would have found the perfect tile for your home.
