Tile Trends We Can’t Wait To See In 2023!
Whether you’re looking ahead or just about to embark on a new project, you may be pondering what the top tile trends for 2023 will be. Considering the events of the last few years, it’s no surprise we’re putting an increasing amount of thought into how our homes can make us feel good, and work harder to support our well-being.
This might manifest in a space that strengthens our connection to the natural world, or one that’s teeming with uplifting colors and playful patterns. It could simply mean choosing to invest in high-quality materials, such as classic marble tiles, that you know you’ll find beauty in for years to come.
Alongside our rediscovered freedom comes a more daring approach to design. From powdery pastels, rich autumnal tones, vibrant brights, or a colorful take on checkerboard tiles, we are seeing more motifs using bolder shades in place of neutral palettes.

Luxurious Marble & Stone
For an elegant and perennially stylish tiling scheme, you can’t go wrong with marble. Whether you prefer bluish grays, jewel greens, delicate blush tones or the palest carrara marble, this timeless and hard wearing stone will enhance any space. While marble tiles mostly appear to transcend passing design trends, we expect to see an increasing number of interesting patterns at play in 2023. And if the real thing is beyond the reach of your budget, then explore our collection of porcelain marble-look tiles for an incredibly realistic alternative.
Indoor Meets Outdoor
As we continue to look to nature to foster a sense of peace, we are seeing more designs that cultivate indoor-outdoor living. There is nothing we love more than a kitchen, dining space or living area that seamlessly flows out to a garden or terrace. Many of our tiles come in various finishes to create a cohesive aesthetic that links both spaces. Choose from outdoor tiles like Pietra for a rustic “fieldstone” effect or stone-look tiles such as Terre Etrusche that capture the essence of handcrafted terracotta.
Tactile Textures
There are a wealth of ways to bring texture into your kitchen or bathroom. From charming irregularities of our Tropical tiles, Tapiz tiles that mimic the feeling of gently worn tapestries, to organic ledgestone effect of Ordino - Whatever your preference, we’re sure that textured surfaces will continue to enliven our walls and floors.
Timeless Checkerboard
A design that has been around for centuries, traditional checkerboard tiles are enjoying a resurgence in a variety of spaces throughout the home, from stately foyers to petite powder-rooms. Although they’ve never really gone out of style, we’re tipping checkerboard floor tiles to be a hot trend for 2023. If black and white tiles feel too harsh, choose softer, more tonal alternatives. Mix off-white with warm, sandy red, or even muted blues with grayish whites for a contemporary twist.
“Life-Size” Tiles
Last but certainly not least, large format - or “Life-Size” tiles as we at Island Tile prefer to call them - will be the biggest trend in 2023. “Life-Size tiles offer a striking appearance that is certainly a wow-factor,” says Owner Cliff Hirsch. “12”x12” tiles are a thing of the past,” says Hirsch. “Larger tiles lend to minimal grout lines which provides a spacious feel, and a decadence often associated with only the most premium hotels.” Check out our collection of porcelain slabs!
