Black and White Tile
Black and white tile is an elegant color combination that works well on walls and floors. This functional yet high-fashion pairing complements high-traffic areas like bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, or entryways.
Whether you prefer classic or contemporary, featuring black and white tile in your tile design is always a savvy decision. For example, black marble tile layered with subtle white veining creates drama and sophistication with a modern twist. Give rooms a classic look or a retro vibe that never goes out of style.

A Timeless Combination: Black and White Tile
In home design, the high-contrast combination of black and white might be the ultimate color pairing. It combines two neutrals, so it’s easy to accessorize. And the popularity of both colors means you’ll have your pick from materials, shapes and design styles so you can create a space that’s perfectly you.
Black and White Floor Tile
There are so many rooms in your home where black and white floor tile would make a beautiful addition. And we don’t just mean black and white checkered tile (although we’ll forever be partial to that classic geometric look in an entryway, foyer or mudroom).
The black-and-white pairing can occur naturally, as in the beautiful veining patterns in genuine marble and travertine. Artfully patterned black and white porcelain tiles utilize these colors in decorative lines and flourishes. Mosaic tiles in shades of black, white and metallic further expand your options for black and white floor tiles.
Black and White Bathroom Tile
Choosing black and white tile for your bathroom design is always a clean, sophisticated look, and black and white mosaic tile is an ideal option for creating spaces that are as beautiful as they are functional. We love how penny round, hexagon or basketweave mosaics look on bathroom floors, and you can even swap out individual pieces of different colors to customize your mosaic.
And some of the most stunning bathroom spaces we’ve seen have included black and white waterjet mosaics in marble and other luxe materials; as an accent wall behind a tub, or in a walk-in shower, black and white tile becomes a true work of art.

Black and White Kitchen Tile
When you update your kitchen, you want to be sure the investment of time and money will result in a space you’re pleased with for years to come. That means choosing tile and other finishes that will make your space look up to date now, but not dated in the future. Kitchens are another room where the pairing of black and white offers a world of design possibilities that will stand the test of time.
Kitchens are also spaces where small changes can make a big difference. If you want to do a “refresh” rather than a full renovation, consider adding a black and white tile backsplash. The pairing of these high-contrast neutrals can deliver the before-and-after magic of a major kitchen update in a fraction of the time, and transform the look of the whole space.
