Brown tiles: warm, natural and timeless
Brown is the color of oak, clay and loam. On the floor, it creates a sense of solidity and warmth; on the wall, it creates a cozy, earthy atmosphere. The shades in this collection range from light honey and caramel through oak and taupe to dark walnut, mocha and reddish-brown rust. Almost all are ceramic with a matte finish, giving the tiles a natural look with little shine.
Wood look: the focus of the collection
Most of the brown tiles are wood-look tiles. You get the appearance of a wooden floor with the benefits of ceramic: the surface is hard, water-resistant, and most options are suitable for underfloor heating (check each product). Wood-look tiles come in elongated planks, so they look just like planks when laid in a straight or staggered pattern. Some collections are also available in a herringbone pattern.

Brown tiles by room
Living room
A brown wood-look floor in 20x120 or 30x120 creates a warm foundation for the living room and flows easily into the kitchen and hallway. Find more flooring options in our floor tiles.
Bathroom
Brown tiles in the bathroom create a warm, homely feel, especially when combined with light-colored walls and black or brass-colored fixtures. Wood-look tiles are popular in bathrooms because you don't need to protect them from moisture like real wood; also browse our wood-look bathroom tiles.
Kitchen
In the kitchen, a brown concrete-look or wood-look floor pairs well with a light-colored kitchen. Small brown vintage-look wall tiles add a handcrafted accent to the backsplash. Find more options in our kitchen wall tiles.
Terraces
For outdoor use, the collection includes 2 cm-thick ceramic patio tiles, mainly in wood look (30x120.5) and 60x60. These let you extend the wood look from indoors to outdoors. Find the full outdoor range under garden and patio tiles.
Other brown styles
Alongside wood-look tiles, you’ll find brown tiles in vintage style (small wall tiles), natural stone look, industrial style, and concrete look, as well as some terrazzo tiles. Brown concrete-look tiles are a good choice if you want the warmth of brown without a wood grain.
Tips for laying, grouting, and care
- Grout color: For wood-look tiles, choose grout in the plank’s darkest shade so the joints blend in and the floor looks more like wood. Brown, taupe, or medium-gray grout works with most brown tiles.
- Laying pattern: We recommend laying wood-look planks in a staggered pattern with an overlap of no more than one third, as many manufacturers advise for long tiles; check the recommendations for your product.
- Color variation: Wood-look tiles have different print variations; mix tiles from multiple boxes for a natural look.
- Care: Clean with mild soapy water or a pH-neutral cleaner and a soft cloth, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
