Whether you are in the market for marble, limestone, ceramic, terrazzo, or porcelain our blue tile ideas have an option that you will love.
1. Blue Subway Tiles
Getting creating with blue is easy because blue is such a dynamic shade. Our Jules Glossy Chevron Ceramic Tiles can lend themselves to many areas around the house and serve as an eye-popping accent wall. The Army Blue Glazed Ceramic Wall Decos, featured above, come in complementary shades to provide spaces with depth without detracting from style. Can you envision these stunning tiles in your shower? We can – and we know they will hold up for years. Blue ceramic tiles are wonderful and will last a lifetime as a novel blue kitchen or bathroom tile idea.
2. Blue Glass Tiles
There’s not much to say about this gleaming Cassis Gloss Liner Blend Glass Mosaic other than it’s breathtaking. When it comes to blue glass tile bathroom ideas, it doesn’t get any better than blue glass mosaic tiles, like our Azzurro Glossy Gloss Glass Tiles. Your bathroom will look pristine at all times when these shiny beauties are fixed upon your shower walls. These glass tiles would also stand up to use in the kitchen, making them a great idea for a blue tile backsplash.
3. Blue Geometric Tiles
We had to include this blue bathroom tile idea that features our Glossy Diamante Tiles. These tiles have a geometric shape that screams high-end and they look amazing with gold accents. If you are a lover of all things luxe, then this paring may be the option for you. Not many homeowners will design a bathroom with gold or brass, but both metals elevate spaces beyond the look of traditional chrome.
4. Blue Porcelain Tiles
These bright blue Fusion Acquamarina Polished Porcelain Tiles are another example of a perfectly executed blue subway tile idea for bathrooms. A bold and tropical shade of blue is often unexpected, but it can look as sleek and sophisticated as any dark shade. The best way to use light blue tile in a bathroom is to place it on a wall that receives lots of natural light. In the bathroom above, you can see how the polished porcelain tile gleams under the sunlight illuminating the entire space.
If you like the look of polished porcelain but wish to create this blue bathroom tile idea in another shade, you can opt for a more traditional blue for similar results. Tiles in this style can be applied to walls and floors vertically or horizontally to yield drastically different looks. An expert tip is that a vertical layout will make your walls appear wider and your ceilings higher.
5. Blue Terrazzo Tiles
This kitchen showcases our Cloud Matte Terrazzo Tile. This matte style of terrazzo tile is perfect for interior walls and floors. The heavily speckled pattern on each tile gives the illusion of texture that is hard to recreate with other materials that have a matte finish. This subtle yet stunning blue tile idea is one that will work in spaces where a classic design is desired. The simple square shape of these tiles and the varied hues of blue are both airy and crisp. As you can see, the pattern is carried from floor to mid-wall for maximum impact.
6. Blue Marble Tiles
Marble is hailed as the ultimate luxury stone. Our Haisa Blue Honed Marble Tile is one of the many blue shower tile ideas we have available. This tile can be laid vertically, horizontally, or in a herringbone pattern as pictured above. Styles of marble tile that are suitable for moist areas are also great for kitchen walls and flooring.
7. Blue Patterned Tiles
This kitchen is country chic its walls covered in our Garden Blanc Blue Glazed Ceramic Tile. Blue tile ideas are not limited to solid tiles; patterned blue tiles are another way to use blue in a space without overwhelming color. This cream-glazed blue backsplash tile has just enough blue to incorporate color without detracting from the room’s simple aesthetic. The floral blue pattern adds a charming pop of color that allows the bright cabinets and marble sinks to take center stage. This subtle tile would also look nice with a similar color palette inside a bathroom.
8. Blue Mosaic Tiles
This kitchen fabulously features our Allure Light Honed 2×2 Marble Mosaic. But these tiles are also durable enough to withstand moisture, making them a great choice for a bathroom. They would also look stunning as a blue bathroom tile idea inside and outside of the shower.
9. Blue Limestone Tiles
Limestone tiles are a lesser-used material inside homes. Many homeowners seem to think that limestone is not stylish, but nothing could be further from the truth. One example of blue in a rustic limestone is our Belgium Blue Brushed Chiselled Limestone Tile. It boasts an earthiness that’s hard to deny. Pairing this subdued style of tile with white furniture or applicancies can bring a real outdoor charm to a kitchen or bathroom. Blue limestone shower tiles are a novel idea that will create contrast.
