FIND YOUR
INSPIRATION
Inspiration can come from objects that speak to your design aesthetic... a work of art, a pillow, or a piece of fabric. Explore online for more ideas by using Tile America's Inspiration pages and websites like Pinterest as Houzz.
Visualizer tools help you see your finished space. Go to Tile America’s Visualizer for tile and Sherwin Williams wall visualizer for paint.
BRING YOUR
SWATCHES
Share samples of anything in your space that has been chosen or is not changing. Cabinet finishes, counter tops, even hardware and paint can inspire a tile design and connect the materials for a cohesive look.
ESTIMATE
DIMENSIONS
Any measurements and photos of your existing space will help us better understand your project. Final measurements should be done by your installer for an accurate account of materials you will need to purchase.

How will you use your space?
What is the purpose of your project? Is it appearance or function? Is this your forever home or are you dressing it up for resale?
IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE IT BELONGS
Consider how your new space will work with the rest of your home. If you are remodeling, consider elements that are not changing like existing cabinets or floors, and elements you need to work with like plumbing and windows. If designing from scratch, the message is still true. The rooms should have some common qualities.
Consider size
Large-format tiles can make a space feel more modern because there are fewer grout joints. A small tile, like a mosaic, will work perfectly in a small area because of the scale. The tile you choose should suit the inspiration style you’ve established and the color should evoke an emotional connection with the rest of the space.
Texture
On the wall textured and relief tiles can add a dimensional and a sculptural statement that can become a work of art. On the floor textured tiles can also be functional, creating a non-slip effect perfect for high-traffic floors.
Performance
Creature comforts elevate how you use the space such as a heated floor, a towel bar that doubles as a grab bar, a corner shelf footrest for shaving! It’s all about the details...think about how you will use the space.
