The Art of Tiling

Offset Pattern: The offset, or brick pattern, is where each tile is placed at the centre of the tile above and below it. 

This timeless pattern works wonderfully in kitchens and bathrooms, adding visual interest without overwhelming the space. 

One-Third Offset: Similar to the offset, the one-third offset staggers the tiles by a third of their length. 

Ideal for longer tiles, this layout is perfect for bathroom walls or kitchen splashbacks, creating a dynamic and modern feel.

Stepladder: The stepladder pattern resembles steps, with each tile offset half its width from the row above.  This pattern is great for adding dimension and works well in smaller spaces like laundry rooms or as a kitchen splashback feature.

Stacked Horizontal: For a contemporary and clean look, the stacked horizontal pattern aligns the tiles in straight lines. 

This layout is perfect for modern kitchens and bathrooms.

Stacked Vertical: Turning the stacked pattern vertically can elongate a room, making it feel taller. 

It’s a chic choice for narrow spaces, bringing an air of elegance and height.

Herringbone: The herringbone pattern, where tiles are laid at a 45-degree angle, creates a visually striking effect. 

It’s a fantastic choice for floors in living areas or hallways, adding depth and movement to your home.

Block Herringbone: A twist on the classic herringbone, this pattern groups four tiles in a rectangular block before changing direction. 

It’s a bold choice, suitable for feature walls in living rooms or dining areas.

Basket Weave: In this pattern, pairs of tiles are laid at 90 degrees to each other, creating a woven effect. 

It’s a sophisticated layout for bathroom floors or as an accent in shower areas.
