Truth be said, tile sizes are getting bigger. Large format tiles have made their way into commercial spaces, and we couldn’t be happier because the bigger, the better.
With bigger tiles, you can make a dramatic statement. Also, you can make your place appear bigger than it is.
If you are planning to install large format tiles for reception areas and other spaces, here’s what you can expect:
Advantages of Large Format Tiles
Minimal Grout Lines
It comes without saying bigger tiles mean minimal grout lines. And fewer grout lines mean a more crisp appearance. You get more coverage when choosing bigger tiles for your commercial space. A wallpaper-like effect is created, making the place appear unified.
Easy Maintenance: Less Cleaning
Another benefit of installing large format tiles is it requires less maintenance. As you know, grout cleaning is a challenge. But when the grout lines are reduced, maintenance costs and time are reduced.
Aesthetic Advantage: Modern and Bigger
Besides practicality, large first tiles come with many aesthetic advantages. First thing first, the large format tiles can make any place look modern. Also, large format tiles create an illusion of a large surface, offering a contemporary edge.
You can also extend the floor tiles to the walls to create an extra modern effect. If you want the walls to appear taller, try installing large format tiles vertically.
If your reception space is in an open area, the large format tiles will give eye relief from grout lines. Less visual interruption creates a more cohesive look.
Things to Remember When Choosing Large Format Tiles
Here’s how you can select large format tiles in the best possible way.
Tile’s Size
The first thing you need to consider is the size of the tiles. And to know the size of tiles, you need to analyze the size of the room where you are planning to install large tiles. Then accordingly, pick tiles that can easily cover the room.
Choose the Right Finish
It’s totally up to you whether you want to choose matt or gloss tiles. If the tiles are for the reception floors, you can choose matt finish tiles. Whereas for the walls, you can go for gloss tiles.
Make sure the floor tiles are highly resistant and anti-skid, so no one falls while walking on them.
Right Color
Installing any color tiles in the office would not make the space look good. Usually, it’s advised to stick to light color tiles as they can brighten up the space. Also, bright tiles with patterns can create an intimate look indoors.
Plan Ahead
Even if you have rightly calculated the number of tiles you need, it’s still advised to purchase a few more pieces. In case of cuts or breakage, the additional tiles could be used without compromising the appearance of the space.
