1 COLOURS IN PLAY
“Tiles are no longer only used for their functional benefits and durability but play an important role in enhancing the aesthetic and design value of any project. Therefore, industry players and manufacturers are innovating constantly, to provide an array of options and styles in a variety of designs, shapes, textures and colours for homeowners and designers alike,” Disha Bhavsar & Shivani Ajmera, Founding Partners and Principle Designers, Quirk Studio, rightly point out.
According to them, Terrazzo tiles have come back in a big way and can be a beautiful addition to any space. They come in various colours and can be used as flooring, countertops, bathrooms and indoor swimming pools. metallic tiles are also in trend. From brushed to matt to shiny, metallic hues can make any space look elegant and stylish.
According to Prashant Kulshreshtha, Director, ogling Inches Design Architects, “In the age of Instagram and Tumblr, light, subtle elements with low texture volume will rule the eyes! With the upcoming time and with gain in knowledge, I feel tiles are trending towards colours and shapes rather than textures.”
Blue is the New “hue”
Opt for a subtler version, or go bold – designers internationally have said a big yes to this aquatic hue for this year at least. The intensity the colour imparts on any of the space is indeed quite charismatic. Reminding you of the clear water of the Pacific Ocean, the spaces using blue coloured tiles emerge to be ultra classic, warm yet very exotic at the very first glance. A best bet for open/small living halls, studios, bedrooms – or any other room that demands to look spacious than its actual size. Spa Oscar Blue + Ranger Blue Tile by Nitco is a popular choice when it comes to blue tiles.
