Hexagon Tiles
Hexagon tiles are a good way to give your space a little edge without seeming like you’re trying too hard. It’s a pattern that can resonate on a deep level. The hexagon shape pops up everywhere in nature, leaving some to reason that we’re basically designed to love the pattern. And if, in fact, we are inherently attached to the shape, it stands to reason that you might not get sick of hexagon tile in your home.
Brick
Brick tile is a strong look that appeals to a wide range, from people looking for a basic look to those who want to get creative. You can run different colors side by side. You can run brick tile vertically. Once you begin to visualize the different ways you can use brick tile, a creative world opens up.

Herringbone
With its v-shaped pattern, herringbone tile gives your space movement and vitality. Indeed, it’s popular now and, if its track record is any indication, it’ll likely be popular for the foreseeable future, so you won’t have to worry about the style getting stale. As Kitchen Magic notes, the herringbone pattern has been trending since the Roman empire.
Basketweave
Basketweave tile gives you a strong, textured look. And, like herringbone, the basketweave pattern is both classic and popular, giving you both trendy appeal and staying power.
Linear
Linear tiles can give the eye something to hang out with for quite a while, like the iridescent glass slate mosaic tile. But you can also give the eye some more subtle variety like you get with a gray mixed tile.

Penny Round
There’s something especially eye-catching about penny round tile. Called that because they are, in fact, about the size of a penny, they are a great option for everything from floors to backsplashes.
