10 distinct residential bathrooms with geometric mosaic tiles

9 Sep 2022  •  Specification  •  By Surabhi Patil

The art of mosaic tiles dates back to the third millennium B.C. Modern-day mosaic tiles come in a variety of materials like porcelain, ceramic and stone. Low maintenance, durable and available in diverse styles, colours and patterns, mosaic tiles make a popular material choice for modern bathrooms.

 

Geometric mosaic tiles, beloved for their old-fashioned allure, are resonating with homeowners looking for spaces that are distinctively patterned and boldly imaginative. Visually attractive and aesthetically striking, these tiles find application as backsplashes, flooring or walling material. Although frequently used as a protective layer, they can be simply used as an artistic and whimsical design detail. 

 

From striking black and white, artsy walls in a Spanish suite to colourful, triangular mosaic floors in an eclectic apartment in Rome, the following selection features ten such bathrooms with a creative play of geometric mosaic tiles.
