Not every homeowner has the luxury of a large bathroom. However, even if yours is on the smaller side, a few simple design changes can make it look bigger. While increasing natural lighting and using large mirrors can make the bathroom feel more spacious, a few strategies with your tile floors will also make a difference. Here is what you should consider for your next bathroom floor installation.

How Updating Your Tile Floor Can Transform Your Bathroom

1. Wide Tiles

The more grout lines on your floor, the smaller the bathroom tends to feel. By contrast, by choosing larger tiles, with less grout between them, you can make the space feel more expansive. As an added bonus, this will also make it easier to clean.

2. Diagonal Placement

Installing tiles in a straight line will draw the eye in that direction. This can work against you in a narrow room. When the grout lines run parallel to the wall, this can have the effect of making the bathroom feel longer but also narrower. Installing tiles so they appear to be diagonal will draw your eyes to the corners, visually widening it.

3. White or Cool Colors

When possible, white tiles are ideally suited for making a bathroom feel larger, thanks to their natural tendency to “recede” visually and their ability to reflect light. Of course, white tile doesn’t fit all styles. If you want a different color that shares similar traits, choose cool colors like blue or light gray.
