Top 5 Tips for Selecting Great Tiles for Your Home

When building or renovating your home, choosing your tiles can be a daunting experience. After all, they are more often than not going to be a surface that you and your family will use the most every day.

 

At Aurees Tiles, we have a stunning range to ensure your home is functional and striking. Below, we have compiled a list of the top five tips to help you choose the best tiles for your new home or renovation.

 

Think About the Rooms

Whether it be your living area, laundry, bathroom, kitchen, or even your entire house, choose an option that complements the look you want to create for that space.

 

For example, larger tiles instantly add style and a sensation of space to your living areas. However, placing larger sizes in small rooms, such as your bathroom, can have the opposite effect.

 

Make Sure the Tile You Choose Comes in A Range of Sizes

More extensive options that start at 600mm in size and larger look fantastic in an open living space, such as a live room, while smaller sizes of around 300 mm create a beautiful look and help with water drainage in your home's wet areas.

 

Choosing the same style and colour in various sizes can help create a seamless transition throughout your home.

 

Choose your finish carefully.

You can create an earthy appeal using a matte or natural finish, while a gloss finish provides your home with a modern, silky look. However, it is essential to remember that dust is more likely to appear on floors with a glossy finish, but the luxurious shine throughout your home may be worth the effort.

 

Select your Feature

By choosing a feature tile for your home, you can create a stunning aesthetic and generate interest in your home. Feature designs can be included on floors and walls, but ensuring the surrounding colours blend well with your feature designs' patterns and colour choices is essential.

 

Enjoy A Timber Look Without The Hassle

Wood-look tiles are becoming increasingly popular and offer a fantastic alternative to timber floorboards. Wood-look styles are not only waterproof, but they are much easier to keep clean.

 

At Aurees Tiles, we have a tremendous range of wood-look designs ranging from lighter to deeper tones, making them perfect for any home design.

 

Why not visit the Aurees Tiles showroom and look at our fantastic tiling range for yourself? Our friendly staff can help you make an informed decision for your home and can help you with your tiling design. Give us a call today!

Subway Tiles Adelaide: A Timeless Choice for Your Kitchen Walls
Subway tiles are older than your grandma’s secret fruitcake recipe, and (unlike the fruitcake) they actually get better with age. First laid down in New York’s subway tunnels back in 1904, they were designed for one thing: to stay tough and sanitary in a place where grime breeds faster than gossip in a small town. […]

Innovative Wall Tiles Adelaide That Make a Bold Statement
Let’s be honest: most people in Adelaide play it safe with their walls. Neutral tones, safe shades, the kind of “statement” that whispers instead of talks. It’s not bold. It’s beige with excuses. And in a city where heritage villas stand shoulder-to-shoulder with slick new townhouses, beige isn’t just boring—it’s a missed opportunity. Look, bold […]

Dive Into Luxury: Bathroom Tiles for Every Style
Luxury? Yeah, it’s nice. But let’s be honest—half the time it’s just overpriced beige pretending to be interesting. If you’ve ever stood in a tile showroom, glazed over by the 492 shades of “stone-look matte grey,” you already know the truth: style doesn’t mean anything if it doesn’t actually work. Not in a bathroom. Not […]

Create the Perfect Outdoor Retreat With Outdoor Tiles Adelaide
Tiles don’t usually get the spotlight. But in Adelaide, they probably should. Because between heatwaves that make bitumen bubble, winter frosts that sneak cracks into anything brittle, and soil that shifts more than a teenager’s moods, your outdoor retreat isn’t just about “looking nice.” It’s about survival. Most outdoor surfaces can’t keep up with Adelaide. […]

Enhance Your Outdoor Living With Premium Tiles Adelaide
Outdoor tiles in Adelaide are a survival strategy. You know it. I know it. Anyone who’s ever tried walking barefoot across cheap concrete in January knows it.

Durable and Elegant Kitchen Tiles Adelaide for Modern Homes
Let’s get one thing straight: a “modern kitchen” in Adelaide doesn’t stay modern for long if your tiles can’t keep up. Drop a pan, crank up the air-con, throw in a summer heatwave, add a splash of red wine… suddenly that glossy showroom floor looks less Vogue Living and more regret on legs. For kitchens […]

Creating a Culinary Oasis With the Right Tiles
There’s a particular kind of regret that hits differently. It’s the kind that shows up six months after your “Pinterest-inspired” kitchen reno, when your grout’s already stained beyond redemption, your floor feels like a grease rink, and that sleek tile you swore made the space look bigger is now chipping like a gas station windshield.
