Fireplace with White Concrete Tiles, North York ON

White concrete tiles are growing in popularity among interior designers, and with their flexibility to adopt to a variety of design concepts, it’s clear why. Surprisingly, these high-performance concrete tiles are not as heavy as you would think, with their thin, lightweight structure at only 5/8” thick, designers are able to put them to use in a variety of methods, most popularly as a means of accentuating interior fireplaces.

Extra-large format concrete tiles

2016 and 2017 design trends are seeing a great shift toward extra-large white concrete tiles in interior and exterior design usage. Concrete tiles that are sized larger than 24” x 12” classify as “extra large format tiles”, and they serve the use of expanding the width of an interior fireplace, typically fitting best with fireplaces that are 5’ wide or more. White interior and exterior accents are timeless and elegant, and white concrete lends beautifully towards this trend. White cement helps to achieve the final crisp colour, and with custom sizes available to suit any home, white concrete tiles lend to a sleek, clean and modern look virtually anywhere.

A variety of textures

White concrete tiles are offered in an endless variety of shapes and styles to match any interior or exterior fireplace surround and add to the general aesthetic of a room. Whether smooth, distressed, or raw, designers can compliment the look of their final product with the right finish. Smooth white concrete tiles offer a sleek and sophisticated look which would be a perfect pairing in a setting that requires simplicity, such as a kitchen space. For those looking for a reflection of a more urban outdoor setting, or to add detail to a room that needs a modern touch, the distressed finishing would be a great addition to the white concrete tile. And finally, for designers seeking a natural, unfinished look, a raw concrete tile finish would pair wonderfully with other natural elements including hardwood, greenery, or in an outdoor setting.
