Tile murals are the ultimate decorative tile accessory for a myriad of interior AND exterior projects such as kitchen backslashes, tub surrounds, shower wall accents, exterior garden walls, fountain walls, barbecue pits and even table tops.
Here are some of the many ways you can make use of this beautiful tile artwork in your next home improvement project or remodel.
1. Tile Murals Create a Room With a View
Tile murals can easily turn a space without a view into a space with a view to last a lifetime!
What’s your dream view? Would your home overlook a French vineyard, Italian wine scene, or wonderful Northeast sea scape? A mural of ceramic or stone tile can create that view.
Imagine that…taking a blank space in your kitchen and turning it into your dream view. Today’s most popular trends are Italian wine scenes, French provincial scenes, and seascapes.
2. Tile Murals Turn Kitchen and Bath into Art Spaces
Now that kitchens and baths have become the ultimate living and comfort spaces of the home, these getaways deserve to have wonderful art on the walls. This is often a challenge based on the environmental demands of moisture, heat and smoke.
Hand painted tiles enable any room in an interior or exterior space to showcase beautiful artwork. This isn’t necessarily true for all murals. Those that are printed can lead to UV and lamination issues especially in exterior and high-moisture situations. But ceramic fired murals and high-quality hand painted stone murals can offer a lifetime of durable art.
Along with being a wonderful window into your favorite view, themes such as florals, roosters, fruit bowls, and seashells can alter a room or terrace wall with a new classic look.
3. A Tile Mural to Add Your Favorite Accent Colors
Do you love mustard gold, eggplant, or persimmon colors?
Decorative art tiles and tile murals, add color and textural highlights to any space, but are particularly suitable for areas needing durability as well as art.
Art tiles, deco tiles or decorative tiles, have long been sought after because they provide beauty while being able to withstand moisture, grease, cooking splatters and anything else that would damage other kinds of art.
4. Tile Murals Add a Focal Point to Your Design Theme
When it comes to kitchens and other rooms as well, your design theme matters because it creates a cohesive look and style for your space, but that space also needs a central focus… enter the tile mural! Whether as a window where none exists or as a backsplash where function matters, these murals provide that focal point without compromising style so your design theme can come to life.
5. Tile Murals Break the Monotony In a Large Expanse of Tile
We’ve all seen tiles doing their job in spaces where large walls of tile protect a shower or backsplash from steam, smoke and other environmental challenges. That tile is surely doing it’s job (if installed properly) of providing protection, but might be a bit boring especially when you look at it day in and day out.
Why not incorporate art accent tiles or a tile mural to break up the expanse with some of your favorite design themes – regional (such as country, sea, and mountain), objects (such as shells, wine labels, fruit and herbs, or roosters), and styles (such as Italian, French, modern)?
There you have it – five ways to use tile murals as beautiful works of art to add visual interest and focus to your overall design, without sacrificing durability and function.
