Chequered tiles have stood the test of time as a classic flooring and wall design choice, offering a versatile and bold statement in interior design. Their timeless appeal blends a sense of nostalgia with modern aesthetics, making them a popular surface option for variety of design styles. Whether you’re thinking about updating your kitchen, bathroom, or hallway, chequered tiles can add a unique, dynamic touch to any space.
Chequered tiles have become a beloved choice for homeowners and designers alike. Their ability to bring character, style, and functionality to a variety of spaces makes them a standout option. Here’s why you should consider incorporating chequered tiles into your home:
Bold & Eye-Catching
The bold, contrasting pattern of chequered tiles immediately draws attention. Whether used on floors, walls, or as a backsplash, they make a statement. This makes them perfect for creating a focal point in any room – be it a striking hallway, a vibrant kitchen, or a dramatic bathroom floor.
Timeless Appeal
Chequered tiles have been around for centuries, and their classic black-and-white pattern, as seen in our Venetian White & Nero Marble Chequer, has remained stylish through the ages. This timeless aesthetic fits into a wide range of design styles, from vintage and traditional to modern and industrial, making them a versatile choice that doesn’t easily go out of fashion.
Versatility in Design
Chequered tiles come in a wide array of colours, sizes, and finishes. While black and white is the classic choice, you can experiment with various colours like red, green, pink, and blue, found in our Victorian Pastello and Victorian Patrona Chequer collections, for a more contemporary twist. They can also be mixed with other patterns or materials, offering endless possibilities to suit your design vision.
Durability and Easy Maintenance
Our chequered tile collections are made from highly durable materials like porcelain, such as our new Parisian Chequer and Dolce/Amazonia Chequer, and natural stone, such as Casella and Carrara Tumbled Marble Chequer and Crema Pearl Tumbled Chequer Limestone. These materials are both durable and practical, making them an excellent choice for a variety of applications.
Suitable for Multiple Spaces
From kitchens and bathrooms to living rooms and hallways, chequered tiles can be used in any area of the home. Their durability makes them perfect for high-traffic areas, such as entryways and kitchens, while their visual appeal enhances any room they inhabit.
Chequered tiles are more than just a design trend—they are a classic option that offers versatility, durability, and a striking visual impact. Whether you’re looking to add personality to a room, create a focal point, or embrace a retro aesthetic, chequered tiles provide a perfect solution that balances style and practicality.
