Marble tiles can look absolutely beautiful in the right context but many people worry about whether they’re a good fit for every situation. In today’s article, we’d like to dispel some of the misconceptions surrounding marble tiles and talk about how best to incorporate them into your interior designs.
The Benefits of Marble
When we talk about marble tiles, it can be hard to escape the classical imagery that white marble evokes. While many appreciate this aesthetic, the overwhelming connotations that white marble has can be limiting, especially when people forget just how versatile marble tiles can be.
In practice, marble tiles can come in just about any colour you can think of and that distinctive patterning can work just as well in a kitchen as it does in a bathroom. Marble tiles can work for both floors and walls so long as they feel like part of the overall design.
What to Watch Out For
Some people may suggest that you shouldn’t use marble tiles in an environment like a bathroom because marble is a porous material.
As a natural stone, marble is indeed porous, however, it’s relatively resistant to moisture meaning that with regular sealing every six months, this really shouldn’t be a cause for concern.
That might sound like a lot but sealing your tiles really doesn’t take much longer than cleaning them so if you work this into your regular routine this really shouldn’t be a problem.
