If you’re looking to update your kitchen or bathroom space with new tiling, there’s no shortage of styles from which to choose. Outside of the traditional ceramic or porcelain tile options, a number of unconventional tile shapes can add visual interest to your space. Here are a few of the most popular to consider.

3 Interesting Tile Shapes for Your Home Improvement Project

1. Triangle

Triangle tile offers the possibility of forming other shapes, so it’s highly versatile. If you arrange triangle tiles in a uniform color, they can become anything from squares to rectangles to rhombuses. 

Using opposing colors such as black and white, on the other hand, can create a contemporary look that make the individual triangles pop.

2. Elongated Rectangle

If you have a smaller room that you’d like to appear larger, use elongated rectangular tiles. They offer versatility in how they can be stacked. Place them horizontally to make a room appear wider, or stack them vertically to create the effect of higher ceilings.

3. Hexagon

The hexagon is a popular choice for everything from kitchen backsplashes and bathroom flooring to mosaic designs. The honeycomb effect is mesmerizing no matter the color scheme, though a gradient, in particular, will add visual depth.

You can also experiment with various sizes. Small hexagons can create a delicate look, whereas oversized tiles add a modern touch of drama.
