Choosing a Tile Pattern

Our tiles come in a variety of colors, finishes, and sizes. Additionally, tiles can be laid in several different patterns, and how the tiles are laid strongly influences the room's impression. In this guide, we will go through eight inspiring patterns for laying your tiles.

Stack Bond

One of the most classic and simplest ways to lay tiles is called stack bond. In this pattern, the tiles are placed in a straight formation, where the grout lines intersect at a 90-degree angle. When using rectangular tiles, there is the option to place them either vertically or horizontally. Stack bond became popular during the functionalist era in the 1930s and is still the most common pattern in kitchens and bathrooms today. A timeless and beautiful way to place your tiles.

Running Bond

Running bond is based on the same principle as stack bond, but with the difference that the tiles are offset by half a tile length on each row. Running bond can be laid with both square and rectangular tiles, as well as vertically or horizontally. Tiles laid in running bond are often seen in bathrooms and kitchens in turn-of-the-century style or 1920s classicism.

Herringbone Pattern

Herringbone pattern is a pattern where rectangular tiles are laid at a 45-degree angle to create a V-shaped structure, reminiscent of parquet flooring. This pattern provides a stylish and dynamic visual feel, and is often used to add elegance to spaces.
