At Rooms With Style, our team believes that some of the most beautiful spaces in a home are the kitchen and bathroom. When well-designed, these spaces can boast unique materials that are stylish and inviting. Kitchen and bathroom backsplash tiles in particular, are ever evolving with fresh designs that blend functionality and aesthetics. Whether you prefer a modern look, or something more traditional, we will show you the top backsplash tile trends for 2025.
Large Format Slab Tiles
Sometimes bigger is just better! Large format tiles create a more seamless and cleaner look that fits perfectly in a modern contemporary space. These tiles reduce grout lines which add to their seamless look (and make cleaning easier!). Matte finishes in neutral colors like beige, sage green and cream are popular right now.
Handmade & Zellige Tiles
Zellige tiles continue to dominate in the world of backsplash tiles with their handcrafted and slightly imperfect look. Zellige tiles are a favorite amongst our team as their glossy finish and varied tones add depth and provide tons of character. They are a perfect addition within a variety of design styles. They lend a unique, artisanal touch to any space, and we can’t get enough!
Earthy & Textured Finishes
Nature-inspired materials like sandstone, travertine and textured ceramics are gaining popularity. These stone slabs are extending all the way up to the ceiling for a more luxurious look. The tiles add warmth to a space, and organic beauty; which aligns with the growing preference for eco-friendly and a more nature-forward design.
Sustainable & Eco Friendly Tiles
With sustainability at the forefront of design, eco-friendly backsplash materials are on the rise. Recycled glass and porcelain tiles, reclaimed wood and biodegradable ceramic tiles are becoming more widely available. Such options allow homeowners to be more environmentally conscious without sacrificing their style.
Bold Patterns & Geometric Designs
The popularity of geometric tiles and bold patterns is still strong, and for good reason. These designs add visual interest and personality to a space. We are seeing hexagons, herringbone and Moroccan-inspired designs which are a perfect choice if you are looking to add character, color and charm to your space.
The backsplash is no longer just a practical kitchen and bathroom feature. It’s a statement piece that can define the style of an entire space. With so many beautiful options to choose from, we know we can always find something unique that will enhance our space. Which is your favorite for 2025?
