Wood and Tile Trend

Wood has made a grand comeback in modern homes and a love for ‘all things natural’ is the driving force behind this revival. Combing the wooden floor in the open plan living with hexagonal tiles is a great way to bring pattern, texture and loads of visual contrast. The best part about this is that you usher in all this without ever disturbing the neutral color scheme of the space. The hexagonal floor tile also offers a unique way to delineate space in the open plan living without actually using half walls or even false ceilings. Contemporary and classy all the way!

Those looking for an alternate and yet equally impressive option can try out the geo backsplash with hexagonal tiles. This is a place where you can move away from neutral colors and can opt for tiles that are far brighter and attractive.

Pattern that Blends In

Hexagonal tiles need not be always plain and simple. Patchwork hexagonal tiles might be a touch hard to find and also a bit more expensive than their regular counterparts, but they are well worth the extra cash you splurge. It is best to pick tiles that are monochromatic and do not delve beyond white and shades of gray. Since there is already plenty of pattern, color can disturb the modern appeal of your kitchen and also can give it a muddled look. These hexagonal tiles with pattern are perfect for modern eclectic, shabby chic and industrial kitchens.
