Saltillo tiles, cement tiles, marble tiles, porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles, and stone tiles are all acceptable options in this new bold world. The key is adding a little pattern, texture, and design to a kitchen floor. Simple cabinets and boldly patterned floors work for me. They make great additional color accents to a white kitchen. It helps give the room more dimension.
Textured Kitchen Tile Floors
Textured kitchen tile floors are another great way to add more dimension to the room. Big windows in the kitchen area allow in lots of natural light which can accentuate the style and designs of the kitchen tile floors. An orange-y brick color does well with a majority white kitchen. It also pairs great with wood. As for darker tiles, such as black, they also pair amazingly with white-painted kitchens. Both styles and designs of textured kitchen floor tiles are an excellent addition to the room and can for sure elevate the look of the space and house.
A floral design pattern is a good way to draw attention to the room. The plain white walls and high arched ceilings give the area a very minimalistic elegant look. But keeping the floors all white too would be too much plainness and look a little too much like an airport or hospital room. The floral patterns of the kitchen tile floors give the room an eye-catching feature.
Who said kitchen tile floors had to be square? These multicolored kitchen floor tiles give the area a big pop. It’s very eye-catching and attention-grabbing. The tri-color tiles match up with the green and whites of the kitchen. The pink is the outlier but fits in super well with this color pattern. There are many individual shapes of the color tiles that come together to create a somewhat triangular look. This modern design of the kitchen tiles helps elevate the look and feel of the home. While it’s sleek and modern looking, it also looks and feels very welcoming.
Hexagon-shaped Tiles
Hexagon kitchen tile floors are a standout design choice. It strays away from the traditional square shape but not too much so that it looks odd or out of place in the kitchen area. Whether you’re using mini square tiles to create the hexagon design, or you’re using hexagon-shaped tiles, both are a fun addition to the kitchen and adds some pizzazz to the place. You can do so much with hexagons, these are just two design ideas out of many other possibilities.
Star-shaped Patterns
Star-shaped patterns and designs are another way to subtly spice up the look of your kitchen. Whether the designs are more intricate or basic, both draw attention to the room. The blue star-shaped kitchen tile floors lean more towards the minimalistic side but still manages to grab your attention and draw you to the room.
Busy Patterns and Designs
This kitchen tile floor may seem eye-boggling at first, but once you take into account the bigger picture it seems very fitting. Plain white walls and ceilings should be accompanied by some floor design. Imagine if the floors here were also white. The space wouldn’t look as warm or inviting. This busy-patterned kitchen floor tile not only attracts one’s attention but also creates a more homey and inviting space.
Speaking of busy designs and patterns, here are a few more examples of how you can go about them. The star/snowflake design is pretty popular and for good reason. There are so many ways those can be drawn and styled with the rest of the kitchen space. Flowery tile designs – big or small – are also super common to see. Similar to the other designs, they can be done in various ways as well. Whether you like building up the little tiles to create a larger image or if you prefer the tile designs to stand by themselves, busy-patterned kitchen tile floors can be executed in so many ways we’ll only show you a couple here to spare you the time. But don’t rule them out!

The biggest and most common kitchen tile design of all is probably the checkerboard. It’s super easy to do and you can pick almost any color combination you want.
