Interior design trends: from small sizes to hexagonal tiles

Available in an attractive variety of colours, small-size tiles are a stylish option for contemporary living spaces

Available in an attractive variety of colours, small-size tiles - 8.2x25 cm, 10x30 cm, 10x60 cm, 20x20 cm - are a stylish option for contemporary living spaces, embracing an increasing desire for sophisticated, elegant solutions. Perfect for bringing a personal touch to décor projects with original laying patterns, they can help put a detailed, creative spin on settings with vintage, rustic, country, Provençal, Mediterranean, shabby or boho chic, modern or minimalist looks.

These tiles are a versatile design resource for tone-on-tone looks that blend smoothly with the floors, or enchanting colour contrasts able to enhance and embellish any setting with a vibrant touch. Thanks to the variety of laying patterns - horizontal, vertical, diagonal, mixed or herringbone - small porcelain stoneware tiles offer a range of creative options for bathroom and kitchen walls. They can also be used for patio or veranda walls outdoors and are the ideal choice for a focal point on an outdoor wall in pool areas.

When it comes to small tiles, the hexagonal shape is an interesting solution for a vaguely retro look. A perfect blend of traditional and modern, they’re an ideal choice to create original geometric patterns that bring personality and character to settings. Generally used as a free-standing solution, hexagonal tiles offer decorative solutions for tiling whole walls or elements such as backsplashes, and they can also be used for designing entire floors.
