Classic Tile Choices and Options
How to recreate a classic-vintage look in your kitchen or bathroom? Try to focus on the traditional tiles and choices that bring the classic charm without feeling dated. Start with subway tiles- these small, rectangular tiles have been around since the early 1900s and never go out of style. Go for a glossy white or soft neutral colour, and consider a darker grout to give it that old-school vibe.
Another great option is encaustic-like Porcelain Tiles. This specific set of tiles is patterned tiles often found in vintage-themed homes, with intricate designs that can add a “kind of old look” to your space. Choose any colour or motif, something more attractive, and gradually, it can be the most versatile tile for your bathrooms.
For the floors, consider Hexagon Tiles. A super flexing grey tile pattern, especially in smaller sizes, can give a bathroom a classic, vintage look. Pair these tiles with antique brass fixtures or retro-inspired appliances to complete the look.
Lastly, think about using glazed Ceramic tiles. These tiles are simple, straight, and glazed with a gleaming surface finish, taking one back to the early 20th-century design, and might be used on floors, backsplashes, or even as an accent wall.
No more second doubt, vintage-style tiles will help the supporting addendum, like lighting and accessories, to blend and bring in the desired and conventional look.

Old Tiles Are Like Outfit Styles: Conventional Room Makeover
Think of tiles as the outfit for your room—just like how clothes tune any personal look, the right tiles can totally change the look and feel of the space. Just as an old but favourite black dress never goes out of style, traditional tile choices like Subway or Hexagon tiles offer that same timeless appeal for your home. They act as the foundation of your room's "wardrobe," giving it a polished and put-together look.
Much like how accessories can make you look like an outfit, the pattern, colour, and finish of your tiles can set the tone for your room. Want a more classic, conventional vibe? I personally prefer a Soho blue, or calm white pastel colours, add a hint of flair to your traditional tiles. Consider a bold encaustic tile pattern, like adding a statement piece of jewellery.
As these Traditional tiles are the style statement of your home, giving each room its own unique character, just like a perfect outfit defines your personal style.
