Small pottery is most often used in the interior of a kitchen than its larger prototypes. Tiles in the format 10x10, 15x15 and 20x20 are a welcome guest in the decoration of the kitchen apron. Wall cladding laid out in this way automatically becomes the main accent of space. However, not everything is so cloudless. There are nuances that are desirable to consider when buying a small-format tile.
When choosing a tile format, the main factor is the size of the room. The fact is that too small ceramics in a spacious kitchen can simply be lost or will look ugly in case of an unsuccessful pattern. In addition, poorly organized lighting will highlight the seams, so even the most interesting idea will fail.
Of great importance is the color scheme of small-format cladding. Monocolor, for example, in the kitchen, often looks boring and monotonous, especially if it was used to arrange the floor. Too colorful palette of shades can cause discomfort and a feeling of loss. There is a danger that the wrong combination of patterns or colors will create an artificial ripple, extremely undesirable in design. But the bright tile of a small format on the apron fits perfectly into the interior of the entire kitchen.
Small-sized tile 10x10, for example, fits perfectly into the interior of the kitchen in a rustic style. Fruits, vegetables, flowers or pastoral landscapes can be used as a drawing. Also ideal are stylizations for majolica or cotto ceramics, imitations of natural stone or wood.
An interesting combination on the working wall is the brick-like tile, which creates a cozy atmosphere in the country style. Elongated, 10x30 format, it will decorate the space of the kitchen, regardless of its size and environment. The same can be said of the mosaic, known for its rich selection of color schemes and textures.
A combination of several shades at once is welcome, provided that there is no color imbalance. This also applies to the monochrome version, when a black and white combination is built in. The predominance of white is more preferable than vice versa. Moreover, we are talking about kitchen design.
There is also the possibility of buying tiles from the same article, albeit slightly, but varying in shade. And although the difference between the "multi-party" samples is often insignificant, with the final result of the facing, it is likely to prove itself and not in the best possible way.
