2. Floor to Ceiling Tile
More is more, and this bathroom proves it! Floor to ceiling tile installations are one of our favorite ways to make a big and beautiful statement room.

3. Bold Patterns
Another way to take your home and turn it into a Maximalist wonderland is by using bold patterns. This could be using tile with a repetitive pattern and bold color, using a fun wallpaper with layered patterns in it, or both. Pair our herringbone pattern subway tile with a bold green and you can have a Maximalist tile kitchen like this!

4. Mix and Match Shapes
Mixing tile shapes together is a simple way to create a unique and custom design. Our Geo-Hex tile is one of our most popular signature patterns, that combines our Large Hexagon and Medium Diamond. These two tile shapes are a match made in heaven that fit perfectly together to create a beautiful motif. Go bold with an assorted color arrangement or create a stunning neutral monochromatic look like this one at Brow Chic.
