White Bathroom Tiles - Flooring

When it comes to bathrooms, a large proportion of the space is tiled and so it is an important choice to make. Starting with flooring, this is often the element that ties your other bathroom choices together, acting as a foundation that either matches with or contrasts against the wall or shower tiles.

Marble Bathroom Flooring

For a classic natural marble, the Parisian White tumbled marble tile is a firm favourite. This elegant natural marble features a true white tone, with soft grey veining and markings. The tumbled edges and matt finish of the Parisian marble suit traditional bathrooms, from a Victorian ensuite to a country manor bathroom. Available in a 400 x 400mm square format, this white bathroom tile is a versatile choice for many different sizes of bathroom. Popular throughout history, there is a reason white marble tiles so often find their way into bathroom projects of many different styles.

Marble Effect Flooring

If you are looking for a porcelain alternative, recreate the classic marble look with a white marble effect tile. The Treviso Bianco gives an authentic marble effect tile, featuring cleaner cut edges and prominent grey veining making this marble effect porcelain option perfect for both traditional and more contemporary bathroom projects. The authentic surface patterning along with the hardwearing porcelain finish make the Treviso Bianco tile a thoroughly livable option, able to keep up with use in a busy family bathroom. The Athena is a more statement marble effect option. With intricate and bold grey veining from tile to tile, the Athena is a perfect fit for modern bathrooms. The matt finish and large 1200 x 600 size also adds to the striking effect of this marble effect porcelain.

Patterned Bathroom Flooring

Suited to wall and floor tiles alike, a popular white bathroom tile idea is the patterned tile. These can feature anything from rustic colours and patterns with an antiqued appearance, to sleek modern styles. One form of white patterned tile that always works well in bathrooms is the Victorian tile. The Regent Blue is a beautiful interpretation of this style. It features a classic square format and a small mosaic-effect design that gives the appearance of lots of smaller white, ivory, and blue tiles laid in an intricate pattern. The blue is a perfect subtle navy hue, that can be tied in nicely with other wall colours or tiles in your bathroom. The Regent range works well in Victorian style bathrooms but given its light and bright appearance there is no need to shy away from using this patterned tile option in more modern rooms.

The Ophelia White is another white patterned floor tile option suited well for bathroom use. The off-white background, subtle pale grey patterns and darker colours around the edges give the Ophelia an aged effect, forming a replica of a traditional handmade Moroccan patterned tile.

White Bathroom Tiles - Wall Tiles

Bathroom tiles are not limited to just flooring, but there are many different white bathroom tile ideas for wall tiles. Wall tiles are an opportunity to be creative, whether in patterns, formats, finishes or textures. White splashback, shower, and other wall tiles are perfect for complementing the floor tiles whilst also acting as a practical wall covering.

White Metro Tiles

For a classic and popular white metro tile, look no further than the Pastello Cotton. Seen here in a matt finish, these subtle and timeless white metro tiles are also available in a gloss finish, being perfect for white splashback and shower tiles. Metro tiles can be laid in a variety of ways from a traditional brick bond, or herringbone pattern for a more decorative feel.

White Zellige Tiles

The Safi Seashell is a favourite for a white splashback or shower tile in a small square format and gloss finish. The Safi has beautiful tonal variation from tile to tile, with a slightly uneven surface glaze that gives an artisanal look, taking inspiration from traditional handmade Moroccan Zellige tiles. The Zellige tile trend really adds an authentic rustic charm to walls and splashbacks, whilst also being easy to keep clean and take care of with a durable glaze. The Safi Seashell is at home in many different styles of bathroom, from contemporary to traditional depending on what you pair them with.

White Striped Tiles

If it is a modern style you are wanting, then you may be interested in a monotone black and white patterned tile, such as the Kiki Décor Mono. Striped tiles are very much on trend at the moment, making for a retro inspired way to add interest which, if done correctly, is unlikely to date. This fun striped bathroom tile option can be used on the walls, either as a fully striped pattern, or interspersed with the plain ‘Base’ Kiki tiles to create a more subtle effect. With an off-white background and black stripes, the Kiki range is also available in a variety of other fun colours, allowing you to use these interesting pigments to complement other areas of your bathroom décor.

Texture and shape can also be used to add detail, whilst keeping your bathroom tiles to a purely white and neutral shade. An example of how to achieve this, is the Avalon Mist decorative ceramic tiles. The matt surface finish is shaped to form a wavy effect which forms a unique way to add interest to the walls of your bathroom without introducing other colours. The patterning is also very subtle in tone, with minimal shade variation from tile to tile and just a hint of natural limestone effect flecking making for a contemporary look in line with the striped tile trend.
