Blue tiles in bathroom interior design

Blue tiles are very popular, because such a finishing material always looks very beautiful, gives the interior softness, tenderness, airiness. Blue is a pleasant color and never annoying. Tiled coverings in these shades are especially well suited for bathroom interior design.

Blue tiles will go very well with light fixtures in the bathroom. In the morning, people need to wake up as soon as possible, prepare for workdays, and blue shades invigorate.

Other features of this color can be distinguished:

• the use of blue tiles is a very good option for small spaces, because "heavenly" shades visually expand the space;
• this color creates a feeling of peace and comfort;
• it is able to lower blood pressure, soothe, relieve irritation and stress.

Sometimes blue tiles create a feeling of lack of comfort, coldness. (especially in cases where the shade is pastel). To complement, soften the existing design, you can use a warmer color. If the homeowner is just about to carry out finishing work and wants to avoid the feeling of coldness, then he should opt for a matte rather than a glossy blue finish.

Plain blue surfaces can look pretty nice, but these rooms are reminiscent of laboratories. To avoid such similarities, you can use additional decorative elements, patterns. If you choose blue tiles, it is not recommended to purchase other products of the same color for the bathroom: curtains, brush holders, towels and other accessories. It is better to dilute the interior with other tones, otherwise all objects in the room will merge with the walls.

The following options are suitable for the bathroom.

• White surface at the top of the wall and blue tiles at the bottom. Blue with white is one of the most common options. Tiled coverings can be either decorated with patterns or patterns, or monochromatic.
• Mosaic. Such tiles visually make the room look larger. The combination of turquoise mosaics and white tiles looks very good. Another option is suitable for the bathroom - monochrome gradation. It is worth making the transition from the ceiling (light blue tiles) to the floor (dark blue tone).

• Combination of tile materials blue and brown pieces of furniture. Such an interior looks expensive and impressive. In this case, you should opt for a tile without patterns - it should be textured or matte.
• Marine theme. This style suits the bathroom very well. To create a nautical design, you need to use nautical greens and blues. It is possible to use bright accents - this way you can "revive" the interior.

Wall tiles should not be chosen for the floor. The tiles on the floor must be rough and matte, otherwise the surface will be slippery. Rough surfaces are more difficult to care for, but first of all, you need to think about safety.For walls, you can choose materials that are less resistant to abrasion, such as glossy coatings. Glossy products are resistant to the effects of cosmetics and cleaning agents, and are quite easy to care for (the main thing is to do it regularly). Mosaic tiles are suitable for both floors and walls, because they are durable and cannot be slipped on.

Saturated deep shades of tiles will make the interior luxurious and unique. It should be borne in mind that this design option is only suitable for sufficiently spacious and well-lit rooms. For large and medium-sized bathrooms, you can choose a fairly large tile without patterns, with a textured or matte surface.

Tile coverings can be laid in a variety of ways.

The most popular options are:

• You can use tiles of the same size and design for floors and walls. However, this option will not work if the person prefers to use accents and avoid monotony.
• Some people prefer to zone the room using several types of tile materials. You can, for example, decorate the area near the sink and bathtub with conventional coatings, and highlight the shower room with mosaic tiles.
• A very common version of wall decoration is a "belt". The same tile coverings are laid over the entire surface (most often they are rectangular), and a contrasting tile runs horizontally (usually in the middle).
• Using classic white color, you can visually expand the space. One third of the wall should be made white, two thirds of the surface should be decorated with blue tiled coatings.

• The "brickwork" of blue and white tiles looks very interesting. Some decorate only one wall in this way, making other surfaces monochromatic. For such a design, it is better to choose glossy tiled coatings.
• To dilute the interior, you can trim one wall (behind the shower or bath) with glossy tile materials in various shades of blue. You can use products with pictures and patterns.
• If you want to visually make the walls higher, then you can lay the rectangular blue tiles vertically, and after finishing the cladding horizontally, the room will visually lengthen, while the walls will appear wider.

Light blue shades give the bathroom a cozy feel.

To diversify the design, you can use not only blue, but also other colors, for example, blue.
