Stripes are big news in interiors right now.
And according to the experts at independent tile specialists The Baked Tile Company, the bathroom will be next in line to get the striped treatment.
Lesley Taylor, Interior Designer and Founder of The Baked Tile Company, said: “Striped tiles are brilliant for adding visual interest and versatility to spaces throughout the home and we are starting to see this move into more functional spaces, including the bathroom, where trends take a little while longer to catch up.
“Stripes can be used to create bold focal points. What’s more, both vertical and horizontal stripes can manipulate space perception, making rooms feel taller or wider depending on the layout. It’s the perfect trend for the bathroom which can be one of the tightest spaces of the home.”
Subtle stripes are ideal for those who favour a less-is-more approach to interiors. To achieve this look, Lesley suggests using different shades from the same range.
She said: “Metro tiles are brilliant for achieving a striped interior scheme and because of their evergreen popularity, there is plenty of choice on the market.
“Homeowners can choose two different shades from the same palette to achieve a distinctive stripe that doesn’t overpower the space.”
However, those who prefer to stray on the bolder side can enjoy a playful take on the trend.
Lesley said: “Trends come and go, but your bathroom is a sanctuary you'll enjoy for years to come.
Create a bathroom that will bring daily joy and if that means going all out, go all out.”
Teaming a striking colour with a neutral white will immediately make an impact and amplify the stripes. As will unexpected colour combinations.
Lesley added: “Our Lava range is available in a myriad of colours and homeowners looking to inject a bold dose of colour can mix and match to create a scheme that meets their personality.”
