A beautiful range of floor tile choices makes it possible to find the perfect combination of function and design for your laundry room.

These are just a few of the many ways to shop for laundry room floor tile to narrow down all the options to find the right choice for you:

• Color and Pattern: Laundry is a fact of life, but laundry day is a little less of a chore when you enjoy your space. So have fun with color and pattern—boring laundry rooms are a thing of the past.

• Material: In rooms with very specific functions, like laundry rooms, choosing tile made from a durable material is important. Manmade materials like porcelain, ceramic and cement will all hold up to years of heavy use, especially in multi-tasking spaces, like laundry room located in entryways. And advances in porcelain tile design mean you can even achieve the look of real wood in a water-resistant material.

• Size: Large-format pieces are a popular tile for a laundry room. In addition to making a space feel larger, a floor will also have fewer grout lines, which can simplify cleaning and maintenance over the years.

• Shop by shape: Many floor tile shapes are suited to laundry rooms, including rectangular, square, hexagonal and geometric. Choose from individual field tiles and expertly designed mosaics.

• Shop by pattern: Coordinate your laundry room with your overall home décor with tiles featuring subtle textural designs, intricate florals, bold geometric accents and more.
