A Guide to Choose Colourful Bathroom Floor Tiles
Bathroom is that personal space that may have seen the joys and tears of each of the family members. We find solace in the bathroom and many of us spend long hours there. However, when one decides to remodel the bathroom, the most difficult task is to decide its look. The bathroom should be subtle and comfortable, and yet remain attractive. Importantly, the bathroom should suit everyone’s tastes.
The colour of the bathroom can really make a difference to its appeal. So when choosing the tile colour, you should keep in mind the mood you want to establish in the bathroom. However, just choosing a colour will not serve the purpose, the colour and pattern need to go hand in hand to create a coordinated look.
Where should you start?
Once you have decided on the colour of the bathroom, the next step is to decide the look that you want to savour. Some of the looks you could go for are Boho Chic, or Istanbul Hamam, or Classic Brick tiled, or Geometric pattern. Sit with your designer or opt for designs from search engines. Get an idea of how the designs and colours blend to give the best look.

Pink: This one is a versatile color option. The bathroom floor when done in shades of pink can give the space a school girl to chic boho appeal. Pink florals or geometric patterns in pink are also good choices for the bathroom floor.
Red: This is the color that can never go wrong when used in the bathroom. From a subtle shade to fiery red, there is something in the colour that will cast a spell on everyone. Go for plain red floors and walls to give a modern and contemporary look. Another option can be red brick tiles to get a bit of mediterranean vibes. Red is a bold colour and can become your signature style if used carefully.
Blue: The colour of water is blue and a bathroom of this colour adds to the aesthetic appeal of the bathroom. It also makes it look more natural. Blue tiles make the bathroom look cool and calm.

Other factors to consider
Deciding upon the look and colour is not everything, there are other factors to consider too:
a. Durability: When designing the bathroom, give special importance to durability. The tiles placed in the bathroom need to have strict water resistance. This factor will add to its durability. Remember that it is not everyday that you will revamp your bathroom. Thus, use the tiles that will last in spite of the use of water and detergents. Orientbell Tiles promise durability and they very well keep it, so that you don’t face any problems in the future.
b. No space for water marks: The tiles used should easily conceal water marks. It is not possible to clean the bathroom after every bath. Usually, bathrooms are cleaned once a day and deep cleaning is done every few days. In the interim, the tiles should not look stained with water marks. Ensure the wall tiles are such that the water slides down or the texture hides the marks and smudges or your bathroom will never look clean.
c. Easy to clean: Since bathrooms are spaces that have to be regularly cleaned, the easier the process is the better it will be for you. If the tiles can be cleaned easily by just swiping a cloth or using minimal amounts of cleaning agents, then it is a boon. The tiles selected should have this utility feature along with being good looking. If the tiles are easy to maintain, they will become a user-friendly option for you.
Whatever style and colour you choose, make sure that you buy good quality tiles from a reputed seller. Tiles of good quality will last for a longer time and won’t force you to go for renovations or repairs every few years.
