For our final Year In Review roundup, we’re looking back at the top-selling tiles of the year across 10 of our most popular categories. Read on to discover customer favorites, including floor, marble, subway and more!

Floor Tile: Quarry Grey Field

This no-nonsense tile is a favorite for commercial and outdoor spaces. Unlike our other man-made porcelain and ceramic tiles, this tile is unglazed, making it less likely to show chips and scratches. If you’re looking for a cost-effective and durable tile for a high-traffic mudroom or patio, the Quarry Grey Field tile (also available in Red) is an excellent choice. Shop our vast selection of floor tile to find the style to fit your space.

Featuring: Quarry Grey Field.

Marble-Look Tile: Tresana White Polished

One of our most popular categories, marble-look tile combines the luxurious beauty of natural stone with the durability and easy maintenance of porcelain and ceramic tiles. This year, warm-toned marble looks–like the Tresana White tile with its subtle brown veining–were among your favorites.

Subway Tile: Imperial Bianco Gloss

White subway tile remains an interior design staple, so it’s no surprise that the Imperial Bianco Gloss tile topped the category. This sleek, chic subway tile is versatile enough to complement a range of design styles, like this bathroom, designed by Jessica Bigham, which pays homage to 1930s Hollywood. Shop our wide selection of subway tile to find styles to fit your space, whether contemporary, retro or anything in between.

Handmade-Look Tile: Tribeca Gypsum White

Perfectly imperfect handmade-look tile mimics the uneven surface and tonal variations found in authentic handmade tiles but at a fraction of the cost. The greater consistency from tile to tile also makes installation easier. With its warm white color and worn edges, the chic Tribeca Gypsum White tile–inspired by the trendy Manhattan neighborhood of Tribeca–was your favorite artisanal-style tile of 2024.

Mosaic Tile: Hex Matte White with Black Flower

The retro-inspired Hex Matte with Black Flower tile was your favorite mosaic of the year, and we can see why! This funky, versatile tile pairs with so many styles and colors, offering a wealth of design possibilities–whether for an all-black-and-white space (like this graphic shower) or as a backsplash in a kitschy kitchen.

Luxury Vinyl Flooring: Timber Ridge Cashmere

A favorite among DIYers, luxury vinyl flooring is available in a variety of easy-to-install wood-, stone- and cement-look planks and tiles. The Timber Ridge Cashmere features realistic woodgrain details characteristic of high-quality wood-look luxury vinyl flooring, making it a perfect option for great rooms, kitchens or mudrooms.

Featuring: Timber Ridge Cashmere.

Marble: Arctic White

Continuing the 2024 trend for warm neutrals, the Arctic White Brushed 12″ x 24″ tile topped the marble category. This extremely rare stone, sourced from a single Turkish quarry, is a Tile Shop exclusive. Use this tile to create a lush, luxurious design in your great room, kitchen or bathroom–like this opulent spa bath designed by Annie Selke. For more beautiful and unique looks, shop our wide selection of marble tile.

Slate: Adoni Black

Perfect for rustic outdoor installations or for adding natural texture to contemporary bathrooms or kitchens, slate remains one of our most popular stone tiles. The dark and expressive Adoni Black slate 8″ x 24″ was the fan-favorite slate tile. Shown here in the small Versailles pattern, this stone tile features ridge-like striations that create a distinct earthy texture. Shop our full assortment of slate tile to find organic looks for your space.

Travertine Tile: Legno

Travertine is a type of limestone formed by mineral springs. Available in a range of shades–from brown to beige to black–travertine tile features bold veining and color variations, creating rich, expressive designs. The top-selling Legno 12″ x 24″ tile, with its warm beige and white tones, showcases the softer side of this natural stone

Trim Tile: Hampton Carrara Polished Somerset

A Somerset (a Tile Shop-exclusive trim piece similar to a pencil trim, but with a rounded edge) provides a sleek transition between two surfaces–whether between two tiles or between a tile and a painted wall. The Tile Shop specially sources trim pieces, including Somersets, to coordinate with our most popular stone tile collections. The Hampton Carrara polished Somerset will complete your Hampton Carrara tile design or add a stylish accent to ceramic, porcelain or glass tile, as demonstrated in this beautiful bathroom. Finish your tile design with our wide selection of trim tile, available in a variety of styles and materials.

Looking to add brightness and sophistication to your cooking space? Beautifully reflective glass tile is a perfect choice. Read on to discover eight kitchen backsplash tile ideas that will make your space shine.

1. Elevate Your Design With a Glass-Marble Mix

Tile that combines two or more materials will bring complexity and visual texture to your space. Here, the Divisa Storm tile elegantly blends marble and glass for a striking design. The marble veining, along with the chevron pattern, infuse the space with a sense of movement that complements the woodgrain detail of the shelf.  

This stylish kitchen backsplash features a white/grey marble with black/white glass chevron-patterned tile backsplash.

4. Incorporate a Stunning Picture Frame

A tile “picture frame” is created by framing a decorative tile with trim pieces, such as Hixtons and Somersets. This makes a perfect centerpiece for your glass tile backsplash. Here, the expressive blues and greys in the Blue Twilight Brick tile enhance the elegant grey veining in the Hampton Carrara Chevron tile, resulting in a highly designed, cohesive space. Achieve this effect by layering trim pieces to highlight your favorite mosaic or patterned tile.

5. Create Movement With a Chevron Pattern

A dynamic shape, combined with striking color variation, infuses this space—designed by A. Dorazio—with a lively sense of movement. We love how the grey, beige, and white tones in the Alato Beachwalk Chevron tile coordinate with the white cabinets and grey-veined white marble countertop.  

This kitchen backsplash features white, blue and grey colored glass tile in a chevron pattern.

Brighten your cooking space with mirrored glass tile. The Antique Mirror Bevel tile shown here reflects light, adding extra illumination to this stove backsplash. Designed by Timber Trails, the kitchen features this standout tile only on the top half of the backsplash to avoid overwhelming the space—we think they struck the perfect balance.

Ready for a room refresh? Add elegance–and protection against messes–with a luxurious new kitchen backsplash. Read on for 14 gorgeous marble tile ideas to transform your space into a true marvel.

1. Combine Warm and Cool Neutrals

One of our favorite design trends is mixing warm and cool neutrals to achieve an inviting and visually interesting space. This luxe kitchen backsplash, designed by @cjuncaj, features the expressively veined Firenze Calacatta tile. With its grey, beige, brown and cream tones, this tile creates balance while making a bold statement.

2. Add Elegance With a Leaf-Shaped Mosaic

Give your backsplash a beautiful sense of movement with a marble mosaic. This stunning space, designed by @ckdesignernicole, features the Elia Honed by Alison Victoria tile.

3. Create a Slab Effect

Achieve the luxurious “slab” look with a large rectangular marble tile, like the 12″ x 24″ Calacata Evora tile shown here. Larger tile requires fewer grout joints, resembling the appearance of a single slab of marble. You can also obtain the slab marble look with large-format porcelain tile, available in sizes up to 48″ x 48″.  

This kitchen features a large white marble tile backsplash installed with few and subtle grout lines for a "slab" effect.
Featuring: Calacata Evora. Design by Angelia Guthrie.

4. Mix Marble and Metal

Layering materials adds visual texture to your space. The Palermo Noir Stone Hex tile, featured on this stylish kitchen backsplash, combines rich black marble with small pieces of brushed bronze. We love how the chic bronze accents complement the metal faucet and fixtures.  

5. Get a Modern Farmhouse Look With a Basketweave Mosaic

This kitchen, designed by Timber Trails, showcases elevated modern farmhouse design. The Sampson mosaic tile features an exquisite basketweave pattern of white and beige marble. Paired with open shelving and wooden accessories, this backsplash embodies the cozy-chic aspect of modern farmhouse style. For more ideas on incorporating this design throughout your home, check out this comprehensive guide to achieving a modern farmhouse look.

6. Set a Mood With Grey Marble

Love the tone of a cloudy sky? Bring it indoors with an expressive grey tile, like the Bianco Colorato shown here. The soft light and dark grey veining are beautifully balanced by subtle beige tones, creating a harmonious neutral look. We love how this gorgeous grey complements the white cabinets and wood shelves.

7. Cast a “Hex”

Available in a range of sizes, colors and materials, hexagon tile is a retro shape that has found a fresh application in our spaces in recent years. Marble, with its vivid veining–bold or subtle, like the soft grey featured in the Royal White Hex tile—adds a sense of movement to your hexagon tile backsplash.

Glass and marble are elegantly combined in the Northbrook Glass with Black Marquina tile. Created using high-powered jets of water that carve intricate grooves in the hard stone, waterjet mosaics combine natural stone with glass, metal or mother-of-pearl. As an added bonus, the glass in this mosaic captures light, brightening the cooking space.  

9. Create a Rustic Look With Tumbled Marble

The worn appearance of tumbled marble is achieved by placing the stone in a rotating drum with rocks, sand and water. The result is a beautifully textured tile that is both refined and rustic. This charming kitchen, designed by Esslinger Design Co., features a backsplash of Meram Blanc Carrara tumbled marble subway tile, which creates an elevated brick wall feel.

10. Add Art Deco Charm

Curves and geometric shapes are hallmarks of classic Art Deco design. This style, popularized in the 1920s, has reemerged in the 2020s with a contemporary twist—and we’re loving it! Here, the stylish Christie Volakas mosaic tile, featuring lush marble and gilded metal accents, creates a space that Gadsby would adore.

11. Create a Sense of Movement With Chevron

This V-shaped tile creates a pleasing zigzag pattern that adds a sense of movement to this kitchen. The natural grey veining adds texture, complementing the organic elements, such as the wicker lamp shade and open wood shelving.  If you love this classic look, explore our wide assortment of chevron tile.

12. Add a Marble Tile “Picture Frame”

Make your favorite marble mosaic a focal point by showcasing it in a tiled picture frame. This technique, created using decorative trim to frame a patterned or mosaic tile, adds a highly designed, picturesque element to your space. It’s also a great way to add a touch of luxury while staying within budget.

13. Marvel With Marble Subway Tile

Elevate the everyday with a luxurious marble subway tile. This crisp and clean backsplash, designed by Timber Trails, features Meram Blanc Carrara subway tile. The soft veining in this winter white marble adds dimension, enhancing standard white subway tile with a touch of elegance.  

14. Choose a Diamond-Shaped Tile for a “Cut Above”

Bold grey veining adds movement to this opulent backsplash. The Africa Tempesta Wheaton tile features beautiful diamond and chevron shapes, enhancing the dynamic quality of the design. We love how the cloudy grey tile contrasts with the white countertop.

Handcrafted using centuries-old techniques (click here to learn all about the process), each authentic Zellige tile varies slightly in tone and surface texture, giving it its perfectly imperfect appeal. Read on for eight stunning Zellige and Zellige-inspired spaces that are sure to spark ideas for your next project, whether it’s a shower, kitchen, bath or fireplace.

1. Zellige Tile Shower Ideas

As evidenced by this gorgeous space designed by @forgegrove, Zellige tiles are perfect for creating understated elegance in your shower. The uneven surfaces of the Zellige White gloss tile add a tactile element to this space, and the sleek brass fixtures help elevate even more. The authentic materials and minimalistic look of this space give it an air of “quiet luxury.”

This chic shower features authentic white Zellige tile.

2. Go Neutral With Light Grey Tiles

The current trend toward mixing warm and cool neutral tones together provides timeless appeal. With its natural variations in coloration, the Zellige Light Grey gloss tile–shown here in this lush bathroom designed by Arias Home–fluctuates between cool and warm grey tones. The effect is a decidedly contemporary look using ancient techniques.

3. Zellige Tile Kitchen Backsplash Ideas

Perfect for a kitchen or bathroom backsplash, petite 2″ x 6″ subway tiles, shown here in the Zellige Dirty Blue gloss, are a new take on a classic design. The smaller format allows for more grout lines as well as more tiles per square foot, resulting in a beautifully undulating surface as the color and surface texture fluctuate from tile to tile. Shop this tile in all four vibrant colorways: Azul, Turquoise, Dirty Blue and Shamrock.

Featuring: Zellige Dirty Blue.

4. Use Square Tiles for a Neat and Orderly Design

This retro-favorite shape is making a comeback, and the handmade square tile–like the Zellige White gloss used in this chic kitchen designed by Fox Homes–demonstrates how this classic design can be made modern. Though the color scheme is monochromatic, there is a lot of visual texture in this kitchen backsplash. The glossy finish reflects light to highlight the subtle variations in surface texture from one tile to the next, and the wide grout joints accentuate the tiles’ handcrafted edges.

This bright and charming kitchen features white Zellige tile backsplash and open white shelves.

5. Use Handmade-Look Tiles for a Cost-Effective Alternative

If Zellige tiles aren’t in your budget, or if you want a slightly more uniform appearance, handmade-look tile, like the Riad White tile shown here, are a charming and cost-effective alternative. Mimicking the handcrafted look, these tiles feature slight variations in tone and surface texture and are available in a wide variety of sizes and colors. Shop our extensive assortment of handmade-look tiles to find the perfect match for your space.

6. Create a Handcrafted Hearth

A fireplace is a natural focal point; make it a standout with handcrafted Zellige tiles. This fireplace surround, designed by @daryakaras, features a charming checkerboard of Zellige in Alabaster and White gloss. The undulating tones add warmth and movement to this Craftsman living room.

7. Zellige Tile Bathroom Ideas

Another popular Zellige tile design is the Chabone Star and Cross tiles (shown here in Charcoal). By pairing Star matte tiles with Cross glossy tiles (or vice versa) you can create a subtle tile design that fluctuates with the play of light across the room. Traditionally used for floors, these tiles look stunning when paired with a subway or square Zellige wall tile (like the Zellige Alabaster gloss tile shown here).

8. Get Creative With a Star and Cross Checkerboard

The checkerboard rules aren’t written in black and white. This luxurious shower uses the Kasbah tile in alternating Terracotta Cross and Star Bone for a twist on traditional Moroccan design. The orange and white handmade-look tiles are complemented by the rust veining in the Pisa Oro wall tile, giving this space a cohesive and visually rich design. A similar look can be achieved using the Zellige Chabone Cross Charcoal and Star Bone tiles.

Whether you’re looking to add functionality to your home or simply refresh an existing bath in anticipation of holiday guests, these stylish powder tile ideas will make the most of your small space. Read on for ideas with mosaics, marble and everything in between and for more inspo, check out our Bathroom Tile Ideas for 2024.

1. Create a Tiled Accent Wall

Tiling only one wall can create a focal point and add the illusion of depth to your space. In this beautiful bathroom, Timber Trails tiled the wall behind the sink with the Alato Beachwalk Chevron glass mosaic tile, which doubles as a backsplash and enhances the space with a space a sense of movement.

2. Embrace Classic Encaustic Patterns

Made from cement using centuries-old techniques, encaustic tiles will lend an air of timelessness to your design. The classic pattern on the Britianna Camden tile is a case in point. In this half bathroom, the tile creates interest above the sink, while the warm neutral palette lends softness to the space.

3. Go Back to Basics With White Subway Tile

White subway remains a popular tile for a reason–the sleek and clean design is endlessly versatile, making this a great tile choice if you anticipate wanting to change up your bathroom decor with the seasons (or your moods). Here, @talk_repurposed installed the Imperial Bianco Matte tile with black grout, creating continuity of color between the walls and the black and white penny tile floor.

4. Add Shape & Movement with Marble Hexagon Tile

An elegant marble instantly elevates any room’s design. Choose a dynamic shape, like the Hampton Carrara Tumbled Hex tile shown here, to add even more interest to your space. The veining in the marble creates subtile variations in color between the tile pieces for a natural sense of movement.

5. Expand Your Wall Space with Large-Format Tile

Large-format tile requires fewer grout lines, which will give your space a more expansive and cohesive look–perfect for a small powder room! And you don’t need to tile the entire room to get the effect. This bathroom, designed by Domicile 37, uses oversized Invisible Grey tile as a wainscoting. Installed vertically, this tile gives the space the illusion of height as well as depth.

6. Create a Wellness-Focused Space With Wood-Look Tile

Wood-look tile offers the same connection to nature and serotonin-boosting benefits as natural wood. The Fileto Camel tile used in this chic bathroom features a soothing fluted look that adds to the tactile experience of this space. For more ideas on the nature-inspired benefits of “biophilic design” check out this helpful guide.

Featuring: Filetto Camel.

7. Add Texture With Sculptural Tile

Like fluted tile, sculptural or 3D tile will add to the sensory experience of your space. The wavy ridges of the Ritual tile, shown here, create texture and soft movement. As the light catches on the raised portion of the tile and casts shadows, the effect is a dynamic space that can be changed with the simple addition of a candle.

8. Soften the Edges with Wave-Shaped Tile

Tile is a hard design element by definition, but tiles with a curved shape–like the Wave Grey Owl tile shown here–will lend softness to your space. The curves of the mirror, circular wall sconce, and even the sink basin all work with the curved tile to give this space a feeling of ease.

9. Create a Beachy Vibe

Give your powder room a relaxed seaside update with “coastal chic” design. Characterized by charming blues and warm neutrals, this sleek style goes beyond basic nautical nods. We love how the Big Sur by Jeffrey Alan Marks in Off the Hook tile uses an abstract, wave-like pattern to evoke the ocean shore. For more beachy tile ideas, check out this comprehensive guide.

10. Pair a Pattern With a Pattern

Because it’s a relatively small area of the house, and perhaps not a room you’ll use on a daily basis, the powder room is a great place to explore your style. Patterns that might feel busy in the master bathroom can provide an unexpected surprise for your guests. Here, a bold floral wallpaper is paired with a black-and-white marble-look patterned tile for a visually stimulating space.

11. Create a Chic (and Cozy) Space

“Modern farmhouse” embraces comfy, homey and effortlessly stylish design. If this is your aesthetic, then your powder room is the perfect place to put it on display. For this rustic-chic bathroom I SPY DIY based their design around the hexagon mirror, using the simple Silver Hex tile to highlight this shape and tie in to the neutral tone of this space.

12. Soften Your Space With a Pastel Palette

Create a dreamy space that relaxes your senses with soft pastel tile. This lovely powder room, designed by Rodi Homes, features the Color Market Alice tile installed in a herringbone pattern. The light pink tile makes this space light and feminine, while zig-zag grout lines add bold movement.

13. Mix Old and New With Transitional Design

This elegant bathroom from Timber Trails perfectly encapsulates the timeless charm of transitional design. Blending traditional elements (the grey paneled walls and regally shaped mirror) with the contemporary light fixture and diamond-shaped tile, this space transcends trends. If your style falls between classic and contemporary, discover more ideas in our Tile For Every Style guide to transitional design.

14. Add Depth to Your Space With Glossy Tile

Make your small space feel larger with a slightly reflective glossy tile that catches the light. The gloss finish of the Tribeca Basalt tile used in this bathroom creates the illusion of depth and also brightens the room. Glossy tile is perfect for a space that includes a natural light source.
