11. Brick look Tiles

Brick tiles make the kitchens look old school and modest for those who love all things vintage. They are also super easy to maintain because of their dark tones. For those wanting to recreate a rustic vibe in the kitchen, brick look tiles would go very well.

12. Geometric Tiles

Another interesting option would be that of geometric tiles. Squares and rectangles are now obsolete. Adding multiple shapes individually or through structured designs adds a graceful movement in flow into the spaces and makes them look fascinating.

13. Textured Tiles

Textured tiles would be a fitting choice for lovers of texture and dimension. Textured tiles not only bring in the sense of creativity but will also beautify the walls. It is an excellent option if you want a hint of craft into the walls without overdoing it.

Moroccan tiles are a great choice to enliven your kitchen backsplashes and walls with a mix of decorative motifs, designs, and colors. The various elements you find in a single piece of tile make it unique and play a huge part in adding life, color, and vibrancy to any space.

15. Plain Glossy Tiles

Although it may seem to be a modest choice, the simplicity that plain mono-toned tiles bring into a kitchen is beautiful. For homes that represent minimalism, these mono-toned glossy tiles will add the right amount of sheer and grace to your kitchens. Also, they will allow you to experiment with the tones and textures for your cabinetry.

16. Herringbone Tiles

We have already understood the beauty of geometric tiles earlier, but there is something special about the Herringbone-shaped tile. This shape adds to the illusion of space, thus making smaller spaces appear bigger. They also grab the right amount of attention and look bold and distinctive.

17. Abstract Tiles

Abstract tiles are yet another versatile option for those wanting a contemporary vibe in the kitchen. These tiles come in various colors and have various abstract designs on them. They add to the kitchen’s style quotient and make them look dynamic.

18. Pebblestone Tiles 

It is hard to forget the memories of cool pebbles under your feet during the walks on the beach. A similar look can be achieved by using pebblestone tiles. What is different here is that these are in the form of tiles and achieve the desired look. They are perfect for the kitchen floors but can also be used in paneled structures over the kitchen countertop walls and backsplashes.

19. Subway Tiles

Yet another exciting choice in kitchen tiles is the Subway tiles. Inspired by the famous New York subway station, these tiles bring a classic and versatile aesthetic into the kitchens and make them look timeless. Choosing the right tone allows you to play with the cabinetry color palette and make the kitchens look even more interesting.

20. Grainy Textured Tiles

These tiles are a perfect fit for those kitchens that want to incorporate earthy tones and a hint of nature-driven texture. These tiles are a perfect choice for the flooring of the kitchens as their surfaces are made to hold good foot traction and are anti-skid in their properties. However, they are also a great option for wall tiles as they are easy to clean and maintain.

21. Glass Tiles

Although this option may seem less perceived by our heavily operating Indian kitchens, glass tiles are a good choice for kitchen backsplashes. They are stain-resistant and nonporous. Because they are slippery, they are impervious to water and prevent harboring bacteria and mold. They cannot handle any pressure or heat; thus, it restricts their use to only backsplashes and nowhere else.
