All the Fall Tile Trends:

 Vibrant Greens 

If there ever was a time to relish in green, it’s now. This vibrant, decadent hue is popping up all over the interior design industry and we love it. In fact, it’s the color of the year! So whether it’s deep emerald green tiles for jewelry box interiors or sage green tiles to complement 1970s inspired interiors, there’s not a single way you can incorporate it that won’t enhance a space this fall.

We’re obsessed!

With its crystal, polished finish, and multi-hue facade, this hexagon glass tile truly tops the ranks with its beauty and makes the overall design something worthy of affection. The reflective qualities of the glass, combined with the mix of emerald hues in this stunning mosaic pattern, are a great way to amplify the feeling of light and space in your next bathroom project!

Creating a focal point of beauty, the green mosaic tiles in this modern transitional kitchen are the perfect addition to fall tile trends.

Classically chic, green mosaic glass tiles are high gloss and high class. Thanks to their intrinsic depth and earth-infused aesthetic, they can instantly create an ambiance of upscale luxury and vitality. Such is the case in the above design which features a glossy sage green mosaic tile. With modern finesse, these tiles can really add depth and elegance wherever placed, be it accent wall tiles, shower tiles or backsplash tiles.

Earth Tones 

This next fall tile trend is more than likely expected, especially after we wrote about at length in our neutral tiles for the fall post (check that out here). There’s just something about how browns, beiges, khakis, sage greens, and tans work with the falling leaves and temperature changes. They perfectly complement one another, and with the biophilic trend taking the hearts of many designers, it’s with little shock earth tones are trending fall 2021.

Wood-look porcelain tiles (Oregon Fume) create a long-lasting yet trend-approved design scenario in this rustic-inspired home.

The darker side of these earth tone fall tile trends is just as appealing as the lighter forms. With depth, dimension and intrinsic movement, the use of a dark brown wood-look tile was a sure-fire way to make an impact in this interior design. In place of traditional wood, the designer was still able to give the design project a stamp of rustic farmhouse approval, ideal for fall, with its realistic wood graining and knotting. Plus, thanks to printing advancements, many wood-look tiles offer a worn-in appearance that tricks the eyes into thinking that they’ve been a part of a home for longer than they have been. 

Traditional slate backsplash tile (Picasso) with woven pattern creates an instant facelift in this kitchen. The textured, multi-tonal tiles create a lasting impression that wows.

Interlocking sophistication marks this kitchen backsplash design featuring a fall-worthy earth tone backsplash tile. Thanks to the natural slate material, this kitchen’s backsplash has a gorgeous ombre palette that is striking and makes a solid first impression. With gradient movement, visual interest is unwavering. We love the balance between moody, industrial decor and light, modern decor that this space encompasses. A true testament to juxtaposition in the home.

Wood-look tiles are the perfect way to enhance any fall interior. This rose-meets-wood-inspired kitchen backsplash tile (Noor) embraces the meaning of earth tones to the fullest with its organic feeling.  The result is a cozy nook for cooking up all the fall treats.

Earth tone backsplash tiles don’t have to be boring! By using varied textures, materials and tile styles, you can create a noteworthy remodel that will move through time and impress your clients. Take for example this beautiful, statement making tile. Using this wood look tile, the result in the space is a homey configuration that is time-tested. A true delight for trending now, and staying stylish later.

 Fun Loving Color Pops

As a way to brighten the mood, especially with WFH being on the rise since 2020, injecting color pops into a space is a key fall tile trend that seems to be well-received. Picking one or two main colors to really stand out, and well, pop, is a great way to add cheer to any space; be it a tile backsplash, shower wall design or home bar backsplash tile design. Below, you’ll get a dose of this color-loving trend to inspire your own.

A gorgeous home bar gets a bold makeover with blue being the central color palette of the design. Using a marble backsplash tile (Storm Blue) made from Thassos, Pallisandro Azul, and Azul Macuba marbles, the result is a stunning space worthy of never-ending cheers.

Adding a marble focal point isn’t limited to kitchens, baths, or floors! The beauty and expansion of blue marble can be used in spaces as small as home bars to add a stunning, sophisticated feeling. Take for instance the use of patterned marble tile as the backsplash in this home bar design. Using the marble backsplash as a color pop and complementing it with blue cabinetry, the result is an on-trend situation that’s light, bright and all spruced up!

Think pink! This beautiful bathroom uses zellige ceramic tiles (Satin Rose) as the backsplash to create an ethereal, chic color pop that’s both subtle and eye-catching. 

The rose pink zellige ceramic wall tiles add a playful, light-loving touch to this bathroom interior. While not as bold as some of the designs featured, pink, in itself, is a color pop.

It’s bold, sunny, and it’s definitely fall tile trends worthy with its shiny, color pop facade. It is a little retro and a lot functional, the perfect balance for contemporary living with design staying power.

An elegant facelift, the subway backsplash tiles (Silver White 3×9) allow light to dance along the surface of this kitchen design, making the illusion of more space even in smaller kitchen areas.

On the other hand, using a light tone foggy gray tile, you can craft a more elementally sound space ideal for cooking. This chic and modern kitchen combines a beautiful subway tile backsplash with a victorian inspired stove. The result? A contrasting color palette with dramatic touches that keep the look clean! Not to mention, the addition of the glass tile was a gorgeous way to introduce texture to the space without compromising the streamlined, cohesive interior look.
