Dec. 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Whether your bathroom is a small area or large, you will want to have floor tiles that make an impression and have fantastic functionality at the same time. There are many options in which to work with and many bathroom floor tile styles you can install, it all really depends on the style you want to achieve and prefer.

Ceramic floor tiles are one of the first choices because they are a floor tile that works well in wet and moist areas, they have a low absorbency rate and they come in a wide range of colours and designs. Many home owners want something a little different and many consider the ceramic tile to be a little boring or you may already have ceramic floor tiles within the home but there are more ways than you can imagine in which to install ceramic floor tiles that creates individual floor tile styles. Take the time to have a look at the amount of colour and style variations for ceramic floor tiles, there are some fantastic ceramic floor tile colours which can really transform the bathroom area. The internet is also a good place to start looking at the different ceramic tile patterns that can be installed such as the weave pattern, this is an alternative to the normal tile row pattern and it can have dramatic results.

A combination of wood and tile also makes a great combination, many home owners like the idea of wooden panels on the walls and then floor tiles over the floor area, many of the natural stone floor tiles make great additions to bathroom areas such as slate floor  tiles and granite floor tiles which will create an impressive tile style.

If you want to opt for a modern and minimalistic bathroom design with clean smooth lines, there are some great porcelain floor tile options that make great additions to the bathroom. Tiling the whole of the bathroom is also once again incredibly popular and involves tiling the bathroom from ceiling to floor rather than combine tiles with paint and wall paper, this gives a continued tile style throughout the bathroom and creates a real modern and minimalist look and feel.

Marble wall tiles can also be incorporated into the bathroom design and you don’t have to use them on a grand scale. Marble tiles come in many variations and you can pick a small area in the bathroom  and make a real focal point. Marble tiles also come in mosaic tile variations and they make great additions as border tiles and around windows and bath areas.

Glass tiles should also be considered, they are great at creating space and glass wall tiles used in light neutral tones can really add to the bathroom theme. Glass tiles work well in the shower areas and they also come in glass mosaic tile form, some home owners like the idea of tiling the whole shower area in small glass mosaic tiles in different colour variations, this can have dramatic results by injecting colour into the bathroom.

Always remember that there are many tile options when it comes to bathroom design and home owners should take a little more time to have a look what is on offer before they make a decision the wall tiles and floor tiles they want.
