Style Spotlight On Large-Format Tile

Looking for a clean, sophisticated tile look, with minimal grout lines? Large-format tile just might be the solution. A versatile design option, these large tiles are perfect for high-traffic areas like foyers, kitchens or bathrooms, but can be used in any room of the house to make a dramatic statement.

What are Large-Format Tiles? 

Large-format tiles are wall or floor tiles that exceed the average 12”×12” sized tile. They are available in a variety of materials, including natural stone, glass and porcelain.

What Are The Benefits of Large-Format Tiles?

Spaciousness: Large-format tiles naturally expand a room's look, thanks to a relative lack of grout lines or other disruptions. This gives any room a more spacious and airy feel. 

Price Point: Large-format tile can also help you achieve a bold look on a tighter budget. Advances in digital printing allow for large-format tile to effectively mimic the look of stone, concrete, metal, wood, and even fabric in a more affordable, (and durable) way. 

Easy To Clean: Larger tiles mean fewer grout lines. Fewer grout lines mean less grout cleaning!  

Versatility: Perhaps the greatest benefit of large-format tile is its ability to fit with any home's style. Whether used for traditional kitchens or contemporary bathrooms, large-format tile can easily be adapted to fit your preferred aesthetic. 

Don’t be afraid to use large-format tiles in small spaces. Using the same tile on the floor and the wall creates a unified look and visually elongates the room.
