Hexagon tiles for a characteristic kitchen splashback
Hexagon tiles in the kitchen are a beautiful way to break up the traditional straight lines of kitchen fronts and the worktop. The hexagonal pattern immediately gives the splashback more shape, without necessarily having to choose a busy design.
Calm beige or light versions provide a subtle background, while green, gold, or other pronounced colours create a strong accent. This way, you can match the hexagon tiles to your kitchen fronts, worktop, and tap.
6-sided tiles and honeycomb tiles
6-sided tiles are also called honeycomb tiles because the pattern resembles the structure of a honeycomb. When several tiles are placed next to each other, a continuous geometric pattern is created with significantly more movement than with square or rectangular tiles.
The search term "honeycomb tiles" is also used for this. Whatever name you use, it refers to the same characteristic tile shape that can be suitable for floors, walls, or a smaller decorative accent.
Hexagon tiles in the bathroom
In the bathroom, you can use hexagon tiles on the floor, shower wall, niche, or behind the washbasin unit. The hexagonal shape adds detail, while a calm tile colour ensures that the bathroom as a whole remains balanced.
For a more luxurious look, you can choose a marble or natural stone look, for example. When using on the floor or in the shower, always check the product specifications and any anti-slip value of the chosen tile.
Hexagon tiles in green, gold, bronze, and beige
The colour significantly influences how prominently the honeycomb pattern is present. Green hexagon tiles create a natural look, while beige variants form a warm and calm base.
Gold and bronze-like tones can give a room extra luxury and warmth. Combine these colours, for example, with taps and accessories in similar finishes, or let them contrast with white, wood, or matte black.
Hexagon tiles in the toilet as a compact accent
Hexagon tiles in the toilet are particularly suitable if you want to create something striking in a small area. Think of the back wall of the toilet, the wall by the small washbasin, or a complete hexagonal tiled floor.
The grout colour also determines the final result. Grout that is close to the tile colour makes the whole look calmer, while contrasting grout further emphasizes the individual hexagons and the honeycomb pattern.
