Tiling Patterns
Mosaic and brick bond, and herringbone, oh my! Your quick and easy guide to tiling patterns…
Let's Talk Tiles
When designing your bathroom, kitchen and laundry spaces, you want to make sure that your tile choices withstand the test of time.
It can be overwhelming enough to narrow down your dream tiles, let alone make decisions about which pattern to lay them in. But fear not, our Gallery Tile Consultants are here to help you!
If less is more is your mantra, or you like to go bold or go home, we’ve given you a quick low-down on tried and tested tiling patterns to get you started...
Stack Bond
A classic pattern that showcases simplicity at its best. Tiles are laid on top of each other to form a neat grid. A great all-rounder pattern that adds an effortless and contemporary look to any space.
Where do we love to use it?
Perfect for a splashback alongside harmonising timber accents to create a modern, Scandi-inspired kitchen.
Vertical Stack Bond
A classic pattern with a bit of a twist. Tiles are laid in a vertical straight stack to create a contemporary and cool feel. Perfect for accentuating the height of a space and adding a touch of drama.
Where do we love to use it?
We’ll never say no to a vertical stack feature wall in the bathroom, as it gives an illusion of height and space to a room that tends to typically feel more enclosed.
Brick Bond
If the name didn’t give it away, tiles are laid in a brick-like pattern with each tile overlapping the one above and below by half. An easy way to create a staggered look that’s reminiscent of trendy New York subway stations.
Where do we love to use it?
Our Walkerville 38 in Harpley, Werribee showcases how you can feature a vertical brick bond pattern as a feature in your main bathroom.
Herringbone
A creative way to accentuate a neutral tile, this pattern draws your eyes outward to give the illusion of a larger space. Long tiles are laid to meet at a 90 degree angle and form a V-shape in a broken zig-zag. A timeless pattern that works with both neutral tones and pops of colour to add interest to sleek modern interiors.
Where do we love to use it?
It adds a special focal point to any kitchen or laundry splashback!
Mosaic
A fun way to bring any room to life. Recurring small shapes are arranged to form a larger pattern. It’s the ultimate pick if you want to strike the right balance between a zen and energetic space.
Where do we love to use it?
It's the perfect backdrop for a soak in your tub or your vanity splashback. The Balsa 28 in Harpley, Werribee shows how you can keep your mosaic feature simple, clean and sophisticated.
