Mosaic tiles are a real eye-catcher in the bathroom. Whether you like sleek and modern or warm and atmospheric: you can go either way with mosaics. But how do you know which tiles fit best in your space? Here are some practical tips to help you make the right choice.
Where do you want to use the mosaic tiles?
Before choosing a color or pattern, it's smart to think about exactly where you want to place the tiles. You can use mosaic tiles:
- On the bathroom floor: especially useful if you choose a non-skid tile.
- Against the wall: for example, in the shower or behind the bathtub.
- As an accent: in a niche, as a border or behind the mirror.
That way you immediately determine approximately how many tiles you need and where the focus will be.
Choose a style that suits you
Mosaic tiles come in a variety of materials. Consider:
- Porcelain: easy to keep clean and hard-wearing.
- Natural stone: gives a warm, natural look.
- Glass mosaic: ideal for a modern bathroom with some extra shine.
Choose what suits your taste and the rest of your bathroom. Are you going for peace and simplicity? Then light colors and quiet patterns work well. Prefer something more striking? Then colorful tiles or unusual shapes like hexagon are perfect.
Think about color and shape
The color of your tiles largely determines the atmosphere. Popular choices are:
- White, gray or sand color: ideal if you want a fresh and open space.
- Green, blue or terracotta: perfect als je wat meer karakter wilt toevoegen.
- Black or dark gray: cool and modern.
Form also makes a difference. Consider:
- Classic square or rectangular tiles
- Playful patterns such as herringbone
- Trendy shapes such as hexagon mosaic
Pay attention to safety and maintenance
Especially on the floor, it is important to choose tiles that will not become slippery. So pay attention to the anti-slip rating(R10 / R11). Especially with a walk-in shower or if you have small children.
In terms of maintenance, ceramic tiles are usually the easiest. Natural stone is a bit more sensitive to lime and soap scum and requires a bit more attention.
Go for quality
Cheap mosaic tiles may seem attractive, but can be extra difficult to work with as they fall off the mat quickly, are not glued straight, and often are less wear-resistant due to fewer layers of glaze. Rather, choose quality that you can enjoy for years to come.
