Feature walls work especially well with tiles. Using one material or the same tiles for a whole room can sometimes look overpowering; introducing a variety of textures and colours is a great way to add interest to a plain space. Here are our tips for creating a feature wall with tiles:
Consider the size of your space. Depending on the colour and finish tiles can help to enlarge a small room, highly reflective glossy tiles or even mirror tiles can make the room feel much larger, even by just tiling one wall or a small area
Use feature walls sparingly throughout your space. The whole purpose of the feature wall means it is a unique element. Sometimes less is more and can look better depending on the size of your space, try Medina to add some stand out mosaic panelling
Get creative! Don't be afraid to use a bold splash of colour like Copper Leaf or a textured tile which contrasts beautifully against plain white tiles. The feature wall is the perfect place for using a daring tile without too much commitment to the whole room
You can work the rest of your room around a feature wall too, if you've already seen a bold colour or texture in which you want to incorporate it can be easy to decide on the coordinating colours and styles - much like working an outfit around the perfect shoes!
