1). Large Format & Patterned Tiles
Look at how clean and tidy this industrial-styled bathroom looks with Tile Club’s Ionic Steel Decor Impact B Rectified Porcelain Tile walls and contrasting large-format Vancouver Blanco floor tile!
After the whirlwind year of constant sanitizing (and resanitizing) every high-traffic surface in our homes, it only makes sense that 2021 home bathroom remodels largely focus on incorporating easy-to-clean surfaces into the mix, starting with incorporating large format wall and floor tiles!
This floor-to-ceiling tile look was created with Tile Club’s 60x60 Sospiro Smoke Ceramic Tile, a worthy contender for modern and contemporary bathroom remodels.
Benefits of Large Format Tiles
Large format tiles are easy to clean and create far fewer grout lines to worry about cleaning than traditional sized or mosaic tiles. Cleanliness isn’t the only reason why large format tiles are so popular, though! Larger tile can create a greater sense of spaciousness and continuity in small and large bathrooms alike, and are the ideal choice for modern and contemporary styles.
As seen on HGTV’s Rock The Block, Tile Club’s Spiga Olson Blanco is the perfect infusion of large format and patterned tile for a truly stunning bathroom renovation you’ll be glad you did.
Unleash your Creativity with Decorative Patterned Tiles
Another super popular tile trend we’re seeing for 2021 is patterned tile, and for good reason! Patterned floor and wall tiles are an easy way to add style and character to otherwise boring spaces and can be the perfect way to draw attention to an accent wall or bathroom floor.

Patterns can be incorporated in a variety of different ways, from how you lay your tile to the shapes you choose. For instance, hexagonal tiles are one of the trending patterns this year and are available in various materials, colors, and sizes. Another super popular pattern option is herringbone tile floors that really make a statement.

Don’t limit your love of wood to the floors! This Japanese-inspired Kasai Carta Sakura 10x60 Rectified Porcelain Tile boasts an elegant floral pattern that looks great on walls and floors alike!
Wood floors are always a hot trend in home design, and not limited to the bathroom. The primary issue with designing a rustic wood bathroom? How easily hardwood and shiplap can get damaged by water! Since wood look tiles give you all the benefits of tile with the look of wood, you get the best of both worlds: beautiful flooring and wall designs that’s also way easier to maintain than traditional wood. It’s a win-win!
Who said wood floors had to be rectangular? This Retro Blanco Hex wood tile bathroom floor is just one of the many examples of how wood-look-alike floors (and patterns) are designed to fit any look.
What’s more, wood tile styles fit every kind of design aesthetic, which means everyone from the ultra-contemporary to the traditional farmhouse lover can find wood tile they absolutely that complements their next bathroom remodeling project.

Did you know that colors can evoke emotions? It’s true! It’s well documented that colors like red, yellow, and orange evoke raised feelings of anger, energy, and anxiety, while warm and neutral colors like beige, gray, and white evoke feelings of cleanliness, health, serenity. You can turn your home into your happy place by utilizing color theory in your bathroom remodel!
Look at how those gold fixtures pop against the neutral marble tiles, accented with the Thassos Octagon with Azul Cielo Marble Mosaics!
What’s more, neutral colors are a great way to accentuate statement pieces you want to showcase (like a gorgeous bathroom sink and faucet!) Whether you choose your next bathroom tile or paint colors for the look or the feel, be sure to add warm and neutral colors to the kid’s, guest, or master bathroom ideas list.

If you really want to do your 2021 home bathroom renovations right, you’ll ditch that shower/tub combo and opt-in for a free standing tub and separate walk-in shower instead.

Glass shower doors are an excellent way to make even small bathrooms feel spacious. Paired with a neutral wall tile like this Pearl Gray Herringbone Glass Tile and neutral accents, you’ll have even more natural light to bask in!

Love the idea of a separate shower and tub set up but worried about space? Don’t fret! These days, soaking tubs come in various styles and sizes that work for even small bathroom renovation projects. Many 2021 bathroom remodels showcase large and small free-standing tubs with gorgeous tile accent walls or floors and fun bathroom accessories, which means you don’t have to have a spacious bathroom to make this vision come to life.
