 Glossy versus Matt surface

The finish of a tile is very important, dramatically affecting the light and feel of a room.

   Glossy Blue Tiles: Gloss finish usually reflects light, making them a perfect option for smaller spaces like bathrooms and kitchens where you need to create a sense of brightness and airiness. The shiny look adds a touch of vibrancy and dynamic feel, often empowering the richness of the blue. These are easy to clean, though they can be slippery when wet.

    Matte Blue Tiles: Matte finishes absorb light, adding a contemporary, sophisticated, and tactile feel. These are perfect for creating a grounded, serene environment and are excellent for floor tiles due to their slip-resistant quality. Matte blue tiles feel organic and textures, allowing the pattern itself to take centre stage with no glare.

   What are the styling tips for blue pattern tiles?

Patterns always require a thoughtful approach on how to integrate and pair with the other  elements like furniture and accessories.

     Frame with Simplicity: If you’re using a busy pattern,  combine it with plain, subway-style tiles in a  white or a neutral colour. This creates a "foundation" that allows the design of the pattern to stand out.

  Consider the focal point: There is no need to tile the whole room. A single feature wall behind a bathtub, sink, or stove injects a powerful statement without overwhelming the space.

  Approach the size with attention: Combine large-format pattern tiles with smaller, simpler ones. A geometric patterned floor can be paired with plain walls, and vice-versa.

    Consider the Grout: Grout colour is an important tool. A contrasting dark grey or black grout will emphasise each tile and add a graphic, modern look. A matching blue or white grout will make the pattern  seamless. Eden Royal Classic Patterned Tile 20x20cm

     Blue and Warm Neutrals: Blue with warm shades like terracotta, ochre, or caramel adds a balanced and inviting atmosphere. The warmth of the neutral tones work well with coolness of the blue, creating a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere.

    Blue and White: A classic combination which has a timeless appeal. It’s crisp, clean, and injects chic style. This combination feels fresh and bright, with a coastal or nautical vibe that is always a nice feature.

  Monochromatic Blue: You can use different shades of blue together for intensity and character. A navy patterned tile with sky blue walls, will add a deep, serene, and harmonious look.

   Blue and Grey: For a sleek and modern touch, pair blue with shades of grey. From light dove grey to dark slate, this monochromatic scheme is calming and stylish.
