Tiles and Slate Wallpaper
Tile and slate effect wallpaper brings the look of ceramic, encaustic and stone to a wall without any grouting. Some designs reproduce real tilework almost exactly; others take the tile grid as a starting point for pattern. Either way it is a practical looking finish for a kitchen, a bathroom or a utility room.
Galerie's Just Kitchens collection is a favourite. Metro Tile reproduces bevelled brick tiles in a running bond, and Fruit Tile sets berries, plums and olives in a drawn grid with the look of hand-painted ceramic. For an Iberian feel, Coordonné's Tiles collection includes Toro, a bold tile-inspired pattern in green and black. Casadeco's Minerals has Zelliges, a contemporary take on Moroccan tilework.
For something weathered, Galerie's Eden has a slightly distressed tile print, and Hohenberger's Urban Classics recalls stone and rough plaster with metallic and matt elements together. Morris & Co's Melsetter includes Wilhelmina, a large tiled repeat of scrolling acanthus and bellflowers within a detailed border, and Arte's Metal X Patina offers a lightly weathered metallic block.
Tile patterns sit beside mosaic wallpaper and marble wallpaper, while a two colour square grid lives under checkerboard wallpaper. Browse our bathroom wallpaper edit for designs suited to that room.
