March 13, 2024 0 Comments

When welcoming guests into your home, we all want to make the best first impression! It’s not a necessity that they love your design, because we believe as long as you love it, nobody else matters! However, it’s human instinct to impress, so here are our top hallway tile ideas to ensure your home leaves a lasting impression from the moment you step in the door!

1 – Dark and Moody Design

For that deep and moody aesthetic, introduce flooring that is darker in colour. This introduces a sophisticated and classy design, that is sure to wow your guests. It’s a bold choice, but with the right styling and accessories, you can be sure your design will have that wow factor. For this hallway design, we’ve used our Concrete Effect Luxury Click Vinyl Flooring to create this modern and sultry look, packed with character. The black accents complement the darker anthracite grey tones of the flooring effortlessly, while the green blends elegantly to add a pop of colour.

The monochrome palette is complemented by a geometric patterned beige and black runner rug, a slender black framed full length mirror, and a sleek round side table with a wicker basket underneath. A tall vertical radiator adds a modern touch alongside the olive green panelled door, creating a welcoming yet stylish entryway.

Marble exudes luxury and expense, and with our variety of marble effect tiles that style doesn’t have to be out of reach. Using marble effect in the hallway creates a high-end look and feel, inviting your guests into an opulent yet welcoming design, setting the tone for the rest of the house. We’ve used our Merope Onyx Marble Effect tiles in this hallway design to showcase how glamorous marble can really look.

3 – Monochrome Hallway Beauty

Welcome a monochrome scheme to your hallway for a design that seamlessly combines modernity with classic black and white colouring. Monochrome walls and floors create a simple backdrop for a design that is sure to impress when your guests first enter your home. For something unique and original, introduce a pop of a single colour to your monochrome design, like pink or green, to add a sense of depth and character. We’ve done this by introducing some greenery to our hallway design, introducing texture to a space that would otherwise be quite flat.

4 – Patterned Perfection

For an eye catching and vibrant first impression, welcome a bit of pattern to your hallway design. This can liven a space up dramatically, and add a sense of personalisation to your space. It doesn’t have to be the most dramatic and over the top pattern, but, if this is a bit of you, we say go for it! We’ve used our Victoriana Blakeney Wall and Floor Tile to show you how patterns can be easily dressed to suit your design style. This space utilises dark wood tones that pull the brown colouring from the patterned tiles out, complementing the overall scheme beautifully. The design of these tiles replicate that of traditional encaustic tiles, offering the opportunity for a truly original and classic design.

We offer a variety of options that are designed to replicate the natural material you desire, so it’s more within reach for our customers. Using natural materials within the hallway ensures a rustic and industrial atmosphere, and creates a design that you and others are sure to love.
