Hexagon Kitchen Backsplash Tile Ideas You’ll Love

Eye-catching and unique tiles are currently very trendy. You can see Eat style arabesques, mermaid style fish scales and many other tiles. Hex tiles are currently one of the hottest and most unusual tiles. They can be seen in bathrooms, kitchens and even entryways, they come in many colors and the geometric shape they have is absolutely timeless. If you don’t have such tiles in your home yet, it’s high time to get them! The easiest way is to cover the kitchen back wall with it – the surface isn’t large, so it’s not too complicated and doesn’t cost a lot of money. But let’s take a look first

Advantages of hexagon tiles

Not only do they look sensational and effectively enhance your interior design despite their delicate appearance as porcelain stoneware tiles, they are also very durable and hard-wearing. The hexagonal shapes offer numerous options for renovators and builders as they are available in a wide range of colors, styles, materials and sizes. Additionally, hexagonal tiles are suitable for any style you imagine, no matter how bold or subtle.

Small white or cream hexagonal tiles combined with light grout lines look classic, delicate and feminine, while the same tiles with darker grout help create a vintage look. If you prefer an ultra-modern style, choose dark, oversized hexagon tiles and impress your guests with an unexpected, sophisticated look that can work wonders in a bachelor pad.

Disadvantages of hexagon tiles

The big disadvantage of hexagonal tiles is that their installation is quite difficult, so they are not the best option for inexperienced DIYers. It’s still doable of course, but make sure you have enough time, patience and attention to detail. Even if you hire a professional, you can expect tile installation to be more time-consuming than rectangular or square tiles.

Whether you DIY or hire a tiler, be sure to speak to an expert to find out the exact quantities you need. Hexagonal tiles can also be a bit more expensive, and if you need professional help, you should consider these additional costs as well. However, in general, tiles are one of the most cost-effective options because they are extremely durable and do not require much maintenance.

Small hex tiles

If we take hex tiles on a smaller scale, the most popular are the penny tiles, which bring geometry and texture but don’t make too much impact. Common small-format hexagonal tiles are also popular. Use them with contrasting grout to make them stand out. This is a cool geometric alternative to penny tiles on the back wall, and if you want you can even build up a pattern or even create some words out of it.
