What are Modern Bathrooms Tiles?

The word modern means something that relates to the present rather than the past. In terms of tiles and tile design, modern means choosing a tile design that is in keeping with the most recent trends in the design field. Modern doesn’t have to mean crazy or Avant Garde though. It can mean gentle, paired-back, and sleek too.

At CTM, we stock a range of all the latest modern bathroom tile ideas that are trending at the moment.  From ethereal marble-look porcelain to funky, patterned ceramics, you’ll find it all at CTM online or in store now.

The Best Modern Bathroom Designs & Ideas to Make your Bathroom Look Great

Before embarking on your bathroom renovation project, there are a few essential factors to consider about your bathroom space;

  • How big is the space?
  • How much light does the space have?
  • Who uses the bathroom mainly?
  • What are the main functions that the bathroom must cater for?
  • What is the overall design style of the home?
  • What is your budget?

It is no use choosing a modern design or idea if it doesn’t make sense for your home. A bathroom, whilst being beautiful, should be functional in the first place. Once you know what you have and what you need, it is time to choose a modern bathroom design to follow. Here are our favourite tile ideas for both the walls and floors of any bathroom.

Bathroom Wall Tiles:

  • Bathroom walls can be both paired-back and quirky, depending on your space and your style.
  • Using a colourful, patterned ceramic tile on a feature wall in the bathroom or in the shower can bring colour and interest into a space.
  • Bevelled subway tiles, laid out in a variety of different pattern options like herringbone, stacked, or vertically, are a very popular bathroom design choice for a modern space. Choose white subways for most of the walls and include a pop of colour with a bright or metallic subway tile on a feature wall.
  • Sheer white porcelain or ceramic tiles are a modern go-to for many bathroom designers. A shiny, white tile is great for a bathroom because it creates a neutral palette base with which you can bring in other colours and design features.

Bathroom Floor Tiles:

  • Wood-look porcelain tiles are a great modern tile idea for both small bathrooms and large ones. The warm hues of the wood-look tiles bring a sense of warmth and cosiness to the bathroom. Choosing a wood-look tile is a clever design choice too because you’ll get the benefit of a wood look with the ability to clean and maintain it more easily then wood itself.
  • Earthy ceramic tiles are wonderful if you’re creating and natural, lodge-type feel in your bathroom. Ceramics are available in a range of different tones and colours and are great for both indoor and outdoor bathroom designs.

Style Tips For Choosing A Modern Bathroom Design

Apart from choosing the right CTM bathroom tiles, there are a few other design choices to consider that can help make your bathroom pop. Consider these style factors when designing your modern bathroom too.

  • Incorporate as many open windows or skylights into your bathroom as possible to bring natural light in
  • Keep your design simple, over complicated designs can make a bathroom appear over-crowded and claustrophobic
  • Keep your tapware minimalistic. Allow your tiles and your colour palette to create the mood in the bathroom, and don’t over-sophisticate it with extravagantly designed taps.
  • Spend time on your lighting. Choosing modern lighting in the ceiling as well as lighting for any mirrors or vanities you may choose is an important part of the overall bathroom design.
