Porcelain Mosaic Floor Tiles

Picking the right mosaic floor tile can be tricky. There are so many mosaic tiles out there but only some of them are durable enough to be used as floor tiles. You may be wondering how to choose the right material, shape, and size mosaic floor tiles for your bathroom or kitchen considering all of the options out there! We make it easy with our selection of porcelain mosaic floor tiles. Our porcelain mosaic tiles are suitable for floor or wall use, bathroom and kitchen designs, and come in a variety of design styles.

Porcelain mosaic floor tiles are a great alternative to larger format tiles. Porcelain mosaics are heavy-duty enough to withstand foot traffic, come in many design styles, and create more grout lines to increase grip for areas prone to water and spills. Some are even available in coordinating sets with floor tiles, wall tiles, and trims that are convenient for bathroom designs. Porcelain mosaic floor tiles are also generally water resistant and stain resistant which makes cleaning a breeze for busy households. This makes porcelain mosaic tiles a perfect choice for bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens and entryways. 

If you're picking a mosaic floor tile for your bathroom, consider mosaic floor tiles that are part of a coordinating wall and floor series. These porcelain mosaic floor tiles can be used on shower floors since they will be less slippery when wet. The larger field tiles are used on the shower walls and on the bathroom floor to create a cohesive and unified aesthetic. For example, our Albuquerque Porcelain Tile series offers several sizes including a ceramic mosaic floor tile. Using a coordinating tile series like our Hudson series can make design choices for your bathroom much easier. The veining and pattern in all of the tiles will remain cohesive throughout, but the size and texture of the tiles will vary. Our Hudson series even makes it easy to commit to blue tiles for your bathroom by offering matching field tiles and mosaic tiles!

For laundry rooms, consider a fun shape for your porcelain mosaic floor tiles. Laundry rooms are a fun place to use porcelain mosaic floor tiles as well because they are often small rooms that are hidden away--a perfect place for a funky, creative design! We offer a 2"x2" black hexagon porcelain mosaic floor tile that would look edgy and playful as a laundry room floor, yet this mosaic is still functional for space since it is spill and stain-resistant. If you prefer rustic or industrial design styles, you could consider a wood-look porcelain mosaic floor tile like our Olympia square porcelain mosaic. This would be great for a laundry room in a high-traffic area since the rustic wood look will help mask dirt in between cleanings.

For an entryway, consider using our vintage-inspired 1"x1" hexagon porcelain mosaic in white with black dot. This series reminds us of the mosaic floor tiles used in old New York City doorways. We'd love to see you incorporate that nostalgia into your own busy entryway at home by channeling a hallmark of the bustling city. Not only will it look timeless and be easy to maintain, but the many grout lines will help with traction on rainy days. If you want a similar look but more modern, consider using the larger 2”x2” hexagon porcelain mosaic in white. These bright white tiles are a timeless neutral in a geometric shape that creates visual interest without being overwhelming. This 2”x2” hexagon mosaic floor tile will be reminiscent of the historic smaller hexagons while allowing for more contemporary design choices.

Kitchens are often a little too large of an area for porcelain mosaics on the floor. However, you can certainly use porcelain mosaic floor tiles if you want. Another way you could incorporate porcelain mosaic tiles in your kitchen design is by using them as a backsplash as part of a coordinating series. A luxurious, elegant line that we offer is our marble-look Penthouse series. You might choose to use the 12”x24” porcelain floor tiles then use the matching porcelain mosaic tile as a kitchen backsplash to create a stylized, unified look. Another way you can use a porcelain mosaic tile is behind the stove to create a focal point in the kitchen. In this way, you can create a practical backsplash that’s easy to clean splashes from cooking as well as an interesting design feature. 

While many porcelain tiles are suitable for floor use, you might want to consider incorporating them as a backsplash or feature wall as well. Porcelain mosaic tiles in bathroom designs can be cut into a listello to break up a pattern of larger tiles. Porcelain mosaic tiles can also be used as a backsplash in kitchen designs. Some porcelain mosaic tiles, like our Metro series, are ideal for use as a kitchen backsplash or as a shower wall in a bathroom. Because our mosaics are mesh-mounted, they can be cut to size for bathroom niches in the shower or behind the sink as well. You could also want to use porcelain tiles as a feature wall for your entryway or in your shower design. There are so many ways to use our porcelain mosaic tiles! Whether on the floor or wall, porcelain mosaic tiles are a solid option for those who want durable, easy to maintain tile. 

Porcelain mosaic tiles can come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and design styles. Use a porcelain mosaic tile for your bathroom as a stylish and practical choice. Consider how a coordinating tile series might help you make a statement with blue mosaic tiles in your bathroom. And remember that a fun geometric shape like hexagons can be both modern and timeless depending on the color and size of the mosaic that you choose. At The Tile Life, we are proud to offer a wide selection of these highly versatile porcelain mosaic floor tiles for bathrooms, laundry rooms, entryways, and more!
