Blue Bathroom Tiles

About

Blue is the only colour a bathroom takes without needing an argument for it. Three hundred and fifty-seven here, 333 of them properly blue rather than blue-ish, running from a pale washed grey-blue through to ink and navy. The practical split Two hundred and fifteen are glazed ceramic — wall tiles, and the deepest colours in the range, because a ceramic glaze holds a saturated blue that porcelain body colour cannot. Seventy-eight are porcelain, which is where the 91 floor-rated options sit. Sixty-seven are glass, almost all mosaic, and they are the ones that do something in a shower: light passes into the glass and back out, so the colour shifts through the day. Finish, and how dark to go One hundred and sixty-two are gloss, 102 satin, 40 matt. In a small bathroom a gloss mid-blue will give you back most of the light a dark colour takes away; a matt navy will not, and needs to be a decision rather than an accident. The 145 tiles in the 12–25cm bracket — metro, brick, square — are where most bathroom schemes here start, with 40 mosaic sheets for niches and trays and 25 extra-large formats for a near-seamless wall. Blue is the colour most affected by artificial light. Order two or three cut samples and look at them in the evening as well as the morning. Samples are free; postage is £4.99 and is refunded on tile orders over £50.
