As you dream up your new kitchen design, consider how these ideas might allow you to incorporate current trends such as green tile.
Why Green?
Green tile may seem like a bold choice, but there’s a reason it has caught on even in this era of neutral, understated color palettes. Green is a color we see all throughout nature, and it contributes a calming vibe rather than feeling like a bold pop of color. Incorporating nature into your design, or bringing the outside in, is a timeless interior design strategy that always works. Green tile is just the modern, on-trend iteration of this classic design strategy.
Choosing the Right Green
There is a wide variety of choices for the right shade of green in your design, so that you can likely find a green to suit any aesthetic preference. The trendiest options are vibrant shades that pack a big visual punch. If you prefer something more subtle and timeless, sage green remains a popular choice with a subdued feel. A deep, almost black green can be a great option, too. Super dark emerald tiles infuse the same drama as a black accent, but feature a surprising hue when the light catches them.
In general, soft tones will feel more classic and easier to work with in the overall design, while a bright or vibrant green is going to become more of a focal point. If you are not averse to bold choices and enjoy renovating on a somewhat frequent basis, go for something bold. A saturated green or a handcrafted tile with lots of color variation are two great ways to do just that.
Where Tile Belongs
Finding the right spot for your green tile statement is essential. If you are ready to fully commit to the green tile look, consider an entire kitchen floor or entryway. For a smaller infusion of the trend, consider some of these options:
- Shower floor
- Tile accent, like backsplash, shower inset, or bathtub border
- Bathroom flooring
- Kitchen counters
- Mudroom
- Fireplace
- Playroom
Low-Commitment Green
If you love the green tile trend, but are hesitant to commit to a bold hue long term, you might want to find a more low-commitment way to infuse the color into your design. Tile is a somewhat permanent fixture that you won’t want to swap out for a few years, but there are other places to work in green, including:
- Wall color
- Lower cabinets or kitchen islands
- Window coverings
- Wallpaper
- Lighting fixtures
- Furniture
- Artwork
