While attention grabbing shades have dominated design over the past few years, there’s always a place in our hearts and hearths for green kitchen tiles. There’s a tone for everyone, from soft shades of sage that make a refreshing change from grey and white, to dark and dramatic bottle greens for a rich and sophisticated style. Whichever green you go for one thing’s for certain - organic tones are making a comeback.
It’s fair to say that kitchens are the hardest working room at home; these days, they’re a space for entertaining friends as much as cooking for the family. And that’s why green tiles are such a perfect choice. With their calm and refreshing tones, they’ll help you create a space that’s stylish yet liveable, whether your taste is traditional or contemporary.
From light and fresh to ritzy and rich, there’s a green tile to suit kitchens of almost every shade. In fact, there really aren’t many colours that don’t go with green, which is good news if you’re just re-tiling your splashback and don’t want to change your current cabinets and worktop. In fact, green is such a versatile colour that you can use it just like a neutral - so don’t be afraid to go all out. That said, there are some colours which work particularly well with green, including grey, white and pink.
Most of our green kitchen tiles are made from ceramic and should only be used on walls. However, some of our tiles are durable enough to be laid on your kitchen floor. Our favourites here are Dwell Emerald, which looks great when laid in a herringbone pattern, and the polished splendour that is Onyx Green.
For a true designer look, your walls and floors should sing in harmony. So naturally, different shades of green wall tiles will go with different floor tiles. Here’s some of our favourite combinations:
Dark and rich shades of green suit the warm tones of wood effect tiles, especially walnut effect planks.
Grey floor tiles provide the perfect foundation for almost any kitchen style and will work will all shades of green.
Combine beige floor tiles with lighter green kitchen tiles for a soft, liveable and relaxing space.
If you’re feeling stuck for choice, don’t worry! We understand that choosing the perfect tiles can be tricky, so here’s a few tips to help you make the right choice:
If you’re planning a luxury kitchen - the kind that will dominate Instagram - then pair dark green wall tiles such as Opal Emerald with white marble worktops. Drama is key here, so pick a deeper green that will really stand out and finish off your room with grass accessories.
For a kitchen that feels more farmhouse than fancy, look towards soft greens like Countrywide Sage. With a clam and natural style, they make a perfect suitor for cream kitchens - complete the rustic look with Winchester Beige on your floor.
When it comes to crisp and contemporary style, green and white always go well together. So stay ahead of the design curve by pairing matt green wall tiles with a gloss white kitchen - you can add in some reeded texture our Fluted Emerald Decor tiles.
Green not your thing but you’d like to inject your kitchen with a shot of freshness? Then why not add some zesty green tiles to your splashback or even the front of your kitchen island? Patterned tiles such as Moorish Verde will create an eye-catching feature, without dominating the rest of your room.
