2018 Kitchen Tile Trends

Kitchen Tile Trends

Tiles have come a long way, with abundant shapes, sizes, colours, and textures available. Not to mention the many ways we can use them. In 2018, many tile trends have hit Australian shores, bringing a sense of style and pizza into any kitchen space. However, choosing the right tile for your new kitchen or existing makeover can be challenging, with so many choices.

 

At Aurees Tiles, we stock the broadest range of tiles in Adelaide. We believe in providing our customers with choices and affordable pricing. Experience our extensive range of kitchen tiles today and get yourself on the way to designing your dream kitchen!

 

To help make the tile selection process a little easier, we have listed the range of kitchen tile trends that have proved popular amongst Australians this year:

 

Kitchen Tile Mosaics

When it comes to your kitchen splashback, gone are the days of bland, neutral tile. If you want to bring this prominent kitchen feature to life, why not embrace your creativity and go for a mosaic design?

 

You don’t have to go crazy here; simply covering your entire splashback with a uniquely shaped tile of a single colour will still have a stylish yet dramatic effect. Using grout contrasting with your chosen tile will highlight the unique tile shape.

 

Textured Kitchen Tiles

Whether you’re looking for a large or small tile for your kitchen, choosing a tile with an interesting texture can create a point of difference without going over the top. The details become apparent as light hits the tile surface, and its rough texture adds an extra dimension to a kitchen with a neutral colour palette.

 

Marble Kitchen Tiles

2018 has been an enormous year for marble. Not just for tiles but for all areas of the home. Marble creates a stunning, luxurious visual that will fit modern and traditional Adelaide homes. While marble can often be expensive, you can still track down quality alternatives.

 

There are porcelain slab tiles available that look like luxury marble stones. Since porcelain is much cheaper, you can buy slabs to match your countertop and splashback. While it may not be accurate, it will still give you the same effect at a lower price.

 

Neutral Kitchen Tiles

You can’t go wrong with a neutral colour scheme for kitchen tiles. It will remain timeless, ensuring your kitchen space is continually in style and saving you thousands in the long run.

Choosing tiles sounds simple until you're standing in a showroom looking at dozens of options that seem almost identical.

The Bathroom Tile Mistakes Homeowners Often Notice Too Late
Bathroom renovations involve hundreds of decisions, from tapware finishes to vanity styles and lighting choices.

How to Choose Kitchen Tiles That Still Look Good Five Years Later
Kitchen renovations tend to age in two ways. Some still feel fresh and intentional years after installation.

Do Large Format Tiles Really Make a Room Feel Bigger?
Renovation conversations often discuss large-format tiles, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and open-plan living areas. The idea behind them is simple: fewer grout lines create a cleaner surface, and cleaner surfaces feel more spacious. But the reality is a bit more nuanced than that. A tile size alone doesn’t magically expand a room. However, the way […]

Tiles Adelaide Designers Are Quietly Using Right Now (And Why They Work)
Trends don’t always arrive with a clear announcement. More often, they show up gradually—across different homes, in slightly different ways—until you start noticing a pattern. Not the kind that feels overdone, but the kind that quietly works. That’s where things get intriguing. If you’ve been browsing tile styles used across Adelaide homes, you might have […]

How to Choose Tiles in Adelaide Without Following Trends Blindly
Trends move quickly. One year, it’s bold patterns. Next, it’s soft neutrals. Then suddenly everything shifts again—different formats, different finishes, different priorities. Tiles are no exception. But unlike paint or décor, tiles aren’t something you swap out easily. Once they’re in, they tend to stay. Which is why choosing them based purely on what’s current […]

Rethinking Tiles in Adelaide Homes: From Functional to Statement-Worthy
There was a time when tiles stayed in the background. They did their job—practical, durable, easy to clean—and that was enough. Kitchens, bathrooms, laundries. Functional spaces, finished quickly. But that approach doesn’t quite reflect how homes are being designed now. Spend a little time looking through how tiles are shaping modern Adelaide homes and it […]
