11 Charming Modern Farmhouse Bathroom Tile Ideas
Modern farmhouse design effortlessly blends contemporary style with the tradition of living off the land. Incorporate this cozy-chic aesthetic popularized by Joanna Gaines of “Fixer Upper” with these eleven bathroom ideas.
1. Showcase Simply Chic Black-and-White Floor Patterns
Color should be used sparingly in a modern farmhouse space, but that doesn’t mean you can’t showcase your personality. A simple black-and-white pattern is the perfect base for an elevated but minimalistic design. This chic bathroom features the Laura Ashley Wicker Charcoal tile. The white blossoms on a black background adds interest to the basic color scheme, while the wooden sink vanity and exposed beam complement the black-and-white tile. The effect is an inviting space–equal parts organic and industrial.

2. Create a Rustic Look with Tumbled Stone
Texture is an important element to any design style, and in modern farmhouse spaces, texture is often used to add depth. This powder room designed by Coco & Jack leans into the rustic aesthetic with the Claros Silver travertine subway floor tile. The tumbled finish creates a worn look, but the tile remains smooth, so it will be comfortable under foot. We love how the gold wall sconce provides its own textural contrast to the rough flooring, elevating the room’s design even more.

3. Farmhouse Bathroom Floor Tile Ideas
Nothing epitomizes modern farmhouse style like hardwood, but if you’re concerned about bacteria or water damage in wet spaces, wood-look porcelain tile is bathroom-friendly alternative that’s easy to clean and maintain. With authentic coloring and wood-grain details, waterproof, stain- and scratch-resistant porcelain tile will give your space the rustic look you love. The Truewood Beige Wood Look tile used in this elegant bathroom, designed by Haneen’s Haven, perfectly matches the tone of the exposed wood ceiling beams, creating a chic, cohesive design. (Planning to DIY? Equally durable wood-look luxury vinyl tile provides a similar look.)

4. Farmhouse Bathroom Tile Ideas
White subway tile is a staple of modern farmhouse style. This chic bathroom designed by I SPY DIY uses the Imperial Bianco Gloss tile in a traditional brick-lay pattern, but adds in barn doors, metal fixtures and a floral wallpaper for an elevated design. (The beauty of white subway is that it adapts to so many style trends–priming your bathroom for future updates!)

5. Create a Distressed Look with Wood-Look Shower Tile
Wood in a shower will invite a host of maintenance problems, but you can get a rustic barn-wall look with the waterproof Bora Black Straight porcelain tile. This dark wood-look tile comes in long tile planks. Clean white bathroom walls and black or copper fixtures will nicely balance this dark shower. Shop our entire selection of wood-look tile to find a rustic aesthetic to fit your space.

6. Adorn Your Space with Americana Patterns
Folk art and modern farmhouse go hand-in-hand. Embrace Americana designs with the charming Star patterned tile. With authentic handmade-look details, this tile (also available in Blue and Oxide), is perfectly homey. We love how it’s paired with marble-look tile in this chic shower for an elevated, yet down-to-earth aesthetic.

7. Incorporate Country Cottage Patterns
A close cousin to modern farmhouse, “cottage style” embraces whimsical patterns that evoke the idyllic English countryside. This pretty, yet moody bathroom, designed by I SPY DIY. features the Laura Ashley Mr Jones Charcoal tile, one of the patterns based off the iconic British brand’s historic prints. We love how the grey and charcoal tile is paired with deep plum-colored walls for a decidedly modern feel.

8. Use Marble for a Luxurious Look
While rustic materials like wood and metal are hallmarks of modern farmhouse design, you can use white marble to elevate this style. This bathroom designed Renovation Husbands features Firenze Carrara tile throughout the shower. The rich grey veining in the white marble creates wonderful movement and great visual texture. A wooden sink vanity, with black and gold metal hardware, and a simple brass-rimmed mirror keep this luxurious bathroom firmly in modern farmhouse territory.

9. Embrace Architectural Details
If you’re lucky enough to have architectural details in your bathroom, embrace them for a romantic and rustic approach to modern farmhouse style. This chic and unique space from The Grit and Polish is a master class in how to style around your home’s rustic features. Pairing the marble floor tile with dark wood and sleek gold hardware keeps the exposed brick chimney wall as the focal point of this elegantly simple bathroom.

10. Add Texture with Pattern
Soft and hard materials are combined in this chic modern farmhouse bathroom designed by Refine Studios. The woven fabric appearance of the Annie Selke Crosshatch Soft Pink tile adds a textile texture that is contrasted with the hard black metal mirror frames and candleholder sconces. The organic textures in the wooden sink vanity and marble-look tile floor complete this visually rich space.

11. Place a “Hex” on your Space
We’ve seen several bathrooms that feature hexagon tile floors, so let’s take a moment to address this classy (and classic) tile shape. The hexagon lends itself to many eras and aesthetics, perfect for the modern-take-on-vintage focus of modern farmhouse design. In this feminine bathroom designed by The Victorian Farmhouse, the Hampton Carrara Hex tile gives the floor an added visual texture and honors the vintage look of the antique mirror and clawfoot tub.
