The New Tile Trends You Need to Know About
Colour, texture and bold creativity are redefining tiles in UK interiors
Tiles have always been appreciated for their practicality, especially in kitchens and bathrooms. But 2025 has been the year they stepped firmly into the spotlight. No longer confined to splash-backs or shower walls, tiles are becoming decorative showpieces used to add character, craftsmanship and colour throughout the home.
With our customers at Mihaus, we’re seeing our clients embrace tile design like never before. From dramatic dark hues to joyful patterns, homeowners are expressing individuality and personality in every detail. And with innovative ranges from design-forward brands like Saloni and Ca Pietra, the possibilities are endless.
Here are the tile trends shaping stylish UK homes right now and how to bring them into your own space.
Tile-Drenching: All-Over Impact
Instead of treating tiles as accents, the growing trend is to tile entire spaces, floors, walls, and architectural details for a cohesive, immersive look.
In bathrooms, this creates a refined, spa-like calm; in kitchens, it delivers a bold, design-led finish. Large-format tiles from Saloni make this look especially impactful, creating smooth, seamless lines with minimal grout for a contemporary, gallery-like feel.
Mihaus tip: Choose one tonal palette and vary the tile format or finish, matt walls with soft-sheen floor tiles feel beautifully layered without being overwhelming.
Dark & Dramatic
Deep greens, inky blues, charcoal and tobacco-toned tiles are making waves in statement bathrooms and moody kitchens. These rich tones create atmosphere and sophistication — and look stunning paired with natural woods, brushed brass and warm lighting.
Ca Pietra’s range includes dramatic marble-inspired tiles and earthy stone shades ideal for creating cocoon-like, luxurious interiors.
Try it: Dark glossy tiles around a fireplace or behind open shelving for a rich, cinematic feature.
Pattern Play & Colour Confidence
Subtle neutrals will always have a place, but now is the time to be bolder. Patterned tiles, hand-painted finishes and vibrant colours are being used to bring joy to homes, whether through a jewel-tone shower niche or a playful kitchen splash-back.
Ca Pietra’s artisan-influenced decorative tiles are perfect for injecting personality, while Saloni’s colourful matt collections add contemporary warmth.
Mihaus loves:
- Emerald green metro tiles in herringbone layout
- Sunny yellows in utility rooms
- Patterned tiles layered with painted cabinetry
Creative Layouts
The tile’s aesthetic power isn’t just in its colour — how you lay it matters just as much.
2025’s layouts include:
- Diamond-set square tiles
- Bold striped tile runs
- Mixed shapes within one space
- Playful borders and tile “framing”
Even simple tiles become design statements when approached thoughtfully.
Mihaus Design idea: Frame a bathroom mirror or cooker hood with a contrasting tile border to create an artisanal, bespoke look.
