To continue our Year In Review series, we’re counting down your most liked, shared and pinned kitchens of the year. Neutrals–especially white and beige–emerged as the most popular shades, but we also saw a lot of love for nature-inspired patterns and colors. Read on to discover all 10 inspiring spaces (number one might surprise you!).

10. Boho Farmhouse

Boho Ikat-patterned floor tiles are paired with a farmhouse subway tile backsplash in this sophisticated kitchen, designed by I SPY DIY. The combination of patterns, colors and textures creates a rich and varied tableau. If you love this artistic, worldly style, check out our guide to boho chic design.

9. Beautiful Beige

The warm-toned Coco Canvas Glossy tile backsplash creates a welcoming atmosphere in this contemporary kitchen, designed by @cmormandesigns. The uneven surface texture and color variation, characteristic of handmade-look tile, add visual interest and complement the marble countertops and fashionable brass fixtures.

8. Varsity Blues

The variation in surface texture on the Retro Lino subway tile gives this best-selling tile its appeal. The vivid white glossy backsplash brightens the room, providing a contrast to the cool blue cabinetry. Discover more of the Timber Trails-designed home in the Varsity Blues Home Tour.

7. Coastal Chic

Warm whites grace this sleek kitchen, also designed by Timber Trails. The undulating surface of the Riad White tile creates gentle waves that reflect light across the stove backsplash. The off-white and light beige tones evoke a bright, sandy beach, for an elegant coastal chic look.

6. Serene White

The slightly textured surface of the Argile Matte White tile gives this space an artisanal fee. The subtle greyish tones make this handmade-look tile a versatile choice–perfect for a warm or cool neutral color scheme.

5. Tumbled Marble

The rustic, yet refined, look of tumbled marble elevates this modern farmhouse kitchen. The Meram Blanc Carrara subway tile, paired with the open wooden shelving, adds plenty of visual texture to this stylish space, designed by Our Home Colonial. For more ideas on achieving this cozy and chic aesthetic, check out our guide to modern farmhouse design.

3. Authentic Handmade Chic

Ancient techniques and modern style come together in this stylish kitchen, designed by Fox Homes. The wide grout joints highlight the uneven edges of these tiles, which are handcrafted by Moroccan artisans. If you love this one-of-a-kind look, shop our full assortment of Zellige tiles.

1. Envy-Worthy Hues

Don’t let the name confuse you–the Zellige Dirty Blue tile combines blue and brown shades for a rich olive green. The undulating surface of this handcrafted tile gives the kitchen backsplash a stunning sense of movement. We love the charm of this artisan petite subway tile as much as you do, which is why we carry it in four colorways: Azul, Shamrock, Turquoise and Dirty Blue.

1. Subway Tiles

Take subway tile beyond the walls! The Argile Matte White handmade-look subway tile shown here is installed in a straight stack to mirror the wall tiles. The effect is a neat and orderly cohesion that keeps with the minimalistic theme of this small kitchen. Discover all the ways you can install your subway tile in this helpful guide.

2. Modern Farmhouse Kitchen Floor

If Joanna Gaines is your style icon, then your ideal kitchen is probably large, homey and features a farmhouse sink. But you don’t need a space large enough to feed a herd of cattle hands to get an authentic modern farmhouse look. The Annie Selke Farmhouse Hex (shown here in White and Sage Green) will turn even a small space into a cozy-chic haven. For more ideas on incorporating modern farmhouse style into your design, check out this style guide.

3. Antique Floor Tiles

If you want your new tile floor to have a lived-in look, then choose a tile with a natural weathered look like the Antique tile. Shown here in a charming Green and Grey pattern, the tile’s aged appearance perfectly complements the rustic wooden cabinets and handmade-look tile backsplash. We love how the coordinating tile makes the small space feel cohesive and uncluttered.

It's better in real life. Order samples.

4. Large-Format Wood-Look Tile

Like the look of wood but are afraid it won’t hold up to the messes in the kitchen? Durable, water-, scratch- and stain-resistant wood-look tile features authentic wood-grain looks that are easy to clean and won’t trap bacteria. The Manhattan Mercury tile features a contemporary take on traditional parquet floors and as an added bonus, the large format makes this small space appear more expansive.

5. Black-and-White Patterns

A black-and-white tile floor will allow for pops of color elsewhere in your space like the antique blue china hutch in this cozy and charming kitchen designed by The Whitley Co. Because the base of this space is the Bolshoi Negro black-and-white tile, the cabinetry and appliances can easily be painted or swapped out to change the aesthetic.

This cozy kitchen features a black-and-white patterned tile floor and white subway tile walls.

6. Chic Boho Designs

If your style leans towards the eclectic and carefree, a boho-inspired design like the Annie Selke Aylin Blue tile shown here, will infuse your space with a worldly charm. Inspired by vintage block prints, this stunning design elevates this small space with chic sophistication.

7. Hexagon Mosaic

This charming Hex Matte White with Black Flower tile floor is versatile enough to complement a variety of design styles. We love how it looks in this minimalist kitchen with modern farmhouse details, but the simple black-and-white pattern would look stunning with a brightly colored wall or sleek blonde wood cabinets.

8. Understated Encaustic Looks

The Decora Calypso encaustic-look tile floor features a muted grey and light-blue design that’s pretty without being overwhelming. With a cement look in a durable porcelain tile format, this tile has old-world charm with a color palette that will enliven white cabinets or blend well with a bolder aesthetic.

9. Stunning Star Pattern

The folk-art-inspired patterned tile is the star of this cute kitchen. While the Star handmade-look tile has an antique appearance, the green cabinets and brass range hood keep this space looking fresh and modern. The color choices and finishes chosen by Callaway Home Improvements prove that this tile is versatile enough to complement a range of aesthetics.

10. Ornate Wallpaper Patterns

If you don’t have enough wall space to showcase an ornate pattern, let the floor be your canvas. The Morris & Co. Pure Net Black Ink tile is based on the iconic British designer’s classic wallpaper designs and is just as charming for a floor as it is on a wall. Shop our exclusive Morris & Co. Collection for more artisanal colors and patterns.

11. Limestone Checkerboard

Checkerboard makes for fun and classic floors. This chic kitchen designed by Timber Trails uses Silver Mist and Noir limestone tiles for a winning floor design. We love how the natural veining in the stone adds interest to this floor. The muted black, white and grey tones throughout the room give this space a moody, elevated aesthetic, but we could see these chic floors being incorporated into a more colorful design.

12. Versailles Pattern

Squares and rectangular tiles of various sizes go into creating a classic Versailles pattern. The Queen Beige Tumbled Small Versailles marble floor tile contributes to the classiness of this chic, modern kitchen designed by Wit and Delight. The subtle design and muted color blend with the boldly veined marble backsplash and countertops, but it is elegant enough to elevate the space.
