Is there any special care this tile needs, in regards to cleaning or sealing?
This combo of white marble and seashell is easy to care for! We recommend using a non-sanded grout to install this tile.
After you finish installing your tile and your grout has cured, apply a penetrating sealant to the marble and grout lines. Mother of Pearl is non-porous and doesn’t require sealing when used on its own, but the rest of the material benefits from applying a sealant to keep white marble pristine.We recommend using a gentle cleaner intended for stone – avoid any abrasive chemicals or bleach. Kleen & Reseal is a great option because it reduces the need to reapply your sealant regularly.
Always test cleaners, sealants, and grout colors on a small corner of the tile in an inconspicuous place to make sure you are happy with the results.
After you finish installing your tile and your grout has cured, apply a penetrating sealant to the marble and grout lines.

Kitchen floor tiles with a particular style design are usually the most practical yet economical solution. We recommend marbled porcelain stoneware for the highest quality and professional repair.
In this article, we will show you photos of the design of the floors in the kitchen, which will be the most interesting and original. We will also look at different styles in interior design, fashion trends and design solutions that look great in a particular area.
And we will also show successful zoning and floor design options in the living room kitchen and floor design in the hallway and kitchen when these two rooms are connected to each other by an open plan. You will see that the floor finish is very important in terms of visual zoning.
The floor design in the kitchen in porcelain stoneware will be the most appropriate solution for business class and elite renovation. We also recommend natural marble for luxury design. Now in interior design, kitchen renovations with a beautiful floor in marbled porcelain stoneware are the most popular.
In fashion and finishing the floor in the kitchen with porcelain stoneware for concrete, stone or wood (in the form of a complex parquet or a simple floorboard).

Kitchen floor tiles: trendiest designs
The design of the walls and floor in the kitchen is the main renovation of this room. Below we show kitchen renovations with a beautiful floor in different shades: dark and light, white, gray and brown.
Refurbishment of a kitchen with beautiful flooring in marble look porcelain stoneware in three colors
In the photo above, in the art deco kitchen floor design, we see a combination of several types of black, white and gray marble effect porcelain tiles.
Inserts of thin stripes of decor in white are stacked with a geometric ornament in the Greek style. This solution is often found in styles such as classic, neoclassic and art deco. A similar pattern is sometimes called a “carpet”, since the dark part of the tile with decor imitates the perimeter of a rectangular carpet. A strip of black marble on the right side visually zones the kitchen space with an island and the main dining room.
Kitchen floor design in cream French parquet look
The design of the floors in a small neoclassical kitchen is most often made under wood or parquet. In the photo above, you can see the flooring in the kitchen under French parquet with the effect of aging, but porcelain stoneware was used for decoration. This finishing option almost always involves the installation of a warm floor. In the photo you see a marbled apron and a parquet floor.
Neoclassical kitchen floor design with central decoration
In this beautiful kitchen interior with a beautiful ornamented floor, we see a light set in the neoclassical style with golden elements.
Here the dining room is located near the window, and the shades of the countertop and backsplash are repeated in the design of the floor.
Hexagon tiles in black and white with colored inserts
In the photo above, in the interior of a kitchen with a loft-style corner set, you see a unique floor design with hexagon-shaped tiles. The combination of hexagons in white, black, walnut, complemented by an ornament, looks very modern. The asymmetrical arrangement of colored details makes such an interior extremely stylish and fashionable.
Pattern carpet in the design of the floor in the culinary area in marble effect porcelain stoneware and glencheck pattern
In this bright interior, a fashionable carpet pattern in the design of the floor in the culinary area looks very elegant. The most up-to-date finishes are in marble-look and glencheck porcelain stoneware. It is worth paying attention to the design of the backsplash, countertops and islands in white marble.
Art Deco Geometric Kitchen Renovation
In a modern kitchen, any geometric ornaments are in favor, including in the decoration of various rooms and in combination with different materials.
Floor design in brown, black and white marble effect porcelain stoneware
The design of the floor, walls and ceiling in the interior should be interconnected. A professional interior designer selects all materials for the overall design of the kitchen set and at the same time creates an atmosphere in which the elements do not compete with each other for the right of superiority in aesthetics, but organically complement.
Marble floor with carpet ornament in black and white porcelain stoneware
In the photo above you see another beautiful example of a carpet patterned floor in white and black marble. This option effectively highlights the island in the central part of the room.
Luxurious polished floor in luxury kitchen design
A kitchen design with a black floor can be especially spectacular.
We can recommend it for a luxury renovation in neoclassical, art deco or classicism style. Also, the black floor can be found in minimalism and loft, but in a more concise manner. In any case, the design of a kitchen with a dark floor is a very trendy solution. In the kitchen above, there is a sumptuous floor in luxury large-format ebony-effect marble-effect porcelain stoneware with light-coloured pine effect inserts.
Plain floor in marble effect porcelain stoneware without accents or inserts
For the design of the floor in a small kitchen, a light, almost monochromatic option is more suitable. Porcelain stoneware in light onyx, white or beige marble is the perfect choice.
Modern kitchen with gray white marble effect porcelain stoneware flooring
Gray white marble is another great option for both small and spacious kitchens. Usually such a finish does without additional decor and ornaments. It is the gray floor that is best suited for modern interiors.
Natural wood in the interior of the kitchen-dining room
Natural wood is not the most practical solution, but with proper care, you can easily afford such a design. True, you still have to choose between wood-effect porcelain stoneware, veneered engineered board, parquet and other popular options.
Parquet wood floor in kitchen design with island
The design of the floor in the kitchen with laminate is not the most practical solution. That’s why we recommend wood look/parquet/laminate porcelain stoneware in the right design and color range for Italian cuisine.

It is usually used for interiors in the loft and minimalist styles, because it goes well with the black furniture that is typical for these styles.
Floor color: dark, light, grey, white, black, beige
The colors of the floor design in the kitchen greatly affect the psychological perception of the interior. The light design of the floor in the kitchen visually enlarges the interior and makes it more tidy. At the same time, the design of the kitchen with a dark floor looks luxurious and luxurious. A kitchen design with a gray floor can be a neutral modern option. Whereas the design of a white kitchen with light floors will be the most relevant and concise.

Black color scheme: black amber, onyx, licorice, peat
The black color scheme very often creates a glamorous mood in the interior. For example, black and white, black and brown, and black and gray palettes are now a favorite among interior designers. More complex combinations are possible, but in general, the use of a light background or furniture to compensate can be recommended.
Two-tone floor: combinations and shade combinations
A multi-colored floor can be a stunningly aesthetic solution for interior decoration. We can recommend dark colors only for light interiors or for very spacious ones. And light combinations can be used in any room.
Floor design in the kitchen-living room: examples of zoning
The kitchen-living room can have zoning elements in the floor design, which allows you to create an exclusive cozy interior. Zoning makes it possible to comfortably use each zone and create a unique atmosphere for it. The most common combination is marble and wood effect porcelain stoneware, as well as ceramic parquet and marble effect tiles.
Combination of wood and marble effect porcelain tiles in the design of the kitchen-living room with underfloor heating
The combination of wood and marble effect porcelain stoneware in the design of the kitchen-living room can be the best solution for separating two zones.
For example, in the culinary and in the island area, you can use marbled decoration, and in the living room itself – under the tree.
Marble effect porcelain stoneware combination with dark perimeter black accent

Kitchen wall tiles – selection features and photos of interior design examples
The kitchen is a zone of high humidity, high temperatures, exposure to grease and steam on the walls.
It is not easy to choose a material that is ideal for finishing the working area, dining section, apron. It is necessary to take into account not only the technical characteristics, but also to coordinate everything with the design of the room.
The best option is porcelain tiles. Its surface has high strength, easily tolerates wet cleaning, is not afraid of fire and moisture. A variety of textures and formats in the Estima catalog and various installation methods will create a unique style in the interior of your home.

Benefits of using tiles
The use of porcelain stoneware tiles in the kitchen is a good solution, which is due to its advantages:
- strength;
- durability;
- fire safety;
- ease of installation – all work can be done by yourself, without resorting to the help of professionals;
- ease of care – in the absence of relief patterns, it is easy and quick to wash the material from contamination;
- tiles hide defects and uneven walls;
- resistance to temperature changes and humidity;
A wide range of textures, sizes and colors of ceramic tiles for the kitchen allows you to realize your plans for any style of interior, to fit materials into the design.
Tiled wall in the kitchen. Example photo 2
Disadvantages of practical choice
What to look for when choosing a tile:
- Size – in order to cut less, the tiles must be selected according to the size of the backsplash or a multiple of the length of the wall
- Finishing materials are chosen not only in appearance, but also taking into account performance characteristics
- When laying some types of tiles (more than 60×60 cm), it is necessary to level the walls
- It is difficult to remove grease from the relief surface of the tiles. Dark grouts show more smudges and dust, while light grouts require more thorough cleaning when cleaning
- Exact quantity calculation. Tiles from another batch may differ in color
When purchasing, also consider the type of surface. Any dirt can be easily removed from the glossy surface when using a detergent.
And on a matte one, dust and stains are almost invisible, the appearance of small scratches during operation is imperceptible. But fingerprints remain on the dark glossy tile. But this is especially true for those who actively cook in the kitchen and make preparations for the winter.
Color choice
The choice will depend on the purpose of the tile in the kitchen – the main background, the highlight of the interior or the allocation of the working area:
- Light shades create the illusion of spaciousness, airiness and tranquility. Suitable for small rooms (up to 8 m²) and studio apartments. For example, Jazz, Rainbow, Spectrum.
- Dark tones are used for contrast and decoration of accent walls. They look good in spacious rooms and with a creative style. Pay attention to the tiles Empire, Kailas.
- With imitation of marble – gives luxury, elegance. Recommended for large kitchens. A tile from the Ideal, Vision collection will look good.
- With a pattern – used to highlight a zone, create an accent. Should match the overall style of the kitchen. Pay attention to the photo of the collection Aglomerat, Art.
- Mosaic is an original replacement for PVC panels, wallpapers. It is always an individual solution that preserves the practicality of the tile. Used to highlight a specific area. Consider options from porcelain stoneware Alba, Montis.
When designing a wood-look kitchen, take a closer look at Modern Wood, Brigantina porcelain stoneware. If you want to imitate the effect of a metal surface – refer to the Fusion collection. You need to focus attention – choose a bright tile from Spectrum.

Types of tiling
There are many ways to lay tiles in the kitchen:
- Plain. The rows are parallel to the walls. Suitable for updating the interior of the kitchen, even non-professionals can handle it.
- Diagonal. Allows you to visually increase the space of the room and reduce the defect in the curvature of the walls. Suitable for plain surfaces.
- Herringbone. It is used for optical alignment of a disproportionate room, visual expansion of space. Suitable for small size plain tiles.
- Mosaic. You can create an individual design. And if you purchase a tile with a ready-made mosaic structure, then there is no need to select a pattern.
- Brickwork. Lines are placed both vertically and horizontally. Allows you to combine several colors or use patterned tiles.
- Seam to seam. Suitable only for a perfectly flat surface, but looks like a single canvas.
In our catalog you will find samples with photos that can transform the appearance of the kitchen beyond recognition due to the play of tile shades.

Wall mounting methods
The durability of the coating depends on the method of fastening and the quality of the compounds used:
- Cement mortar has proven itself when used in problem areas – in places where moisture accumulates, dampness. Allows to lay a tile at small differences of walls. For a good result, a special grid is used.
- Adhesive is selected depending on the type of porcelain stoneware. Provides durable and reliable fastening at observance of application proportions.
To increase the reliability of the masonry, grout is used. It helps to prevent moisture from entering the lining and the formation of mold. Pick it up to match the tiles. But if there are bright accents in the decor, then you can use a grout with a similar color. White grout is considered a universal option.
Please note! For glazed and marble tiles in the kitchen, grout is used, which does not contain sand.
Otherwise, you will scratch the surface.

Kitchen tiles
We recommend the following options for installation on the kitchen wall:
- Unpolished – matt finish. The best solution for the work area, as cleaning takes a matter of minutes.
- Glazed version – smooth surface without embossed pattern. Such tile differs in the special durability, resistance to mechanical damages and pleasant glossy gloss. Suitable for finishing the dining area, as it is easily cleaned from dust and dirt. Differs in richness of color schemes and stylish design.

Of course, when choosing a tile, most of us pay attention to the beautiful appearance, and only then consider the practicality. Therefore, remember that glossy reflects light well. With it, the kitchen will look brighter and more spectacular.
