The best tiles for outdoors

Making the most of an outside space is a trend that is definitely on the rise and choosing the best tiles for outdoors really is key to the kind of space you are looking to create. 

Flooring can contribute to the crafting of a stunning outside space, even elevating the humble patio to an additional room. 

Whether you are looking for a truly contemporary feel or prefer a more traditional rustic look, the flooring you choose will impact the finished look. 

For example, limestone and slate adorn many a garden across the UK and create a look full of rustic charm, as can flagstones – these materials will deliver a more traditional feel with rough hewn edges, surfaces and more. 

However, if your aim is to create something a little more sleek and modern, then you can’t opt for a better material than porcelain – especially a porcelain with rectified edges ie straight edges and minimal grout lines. 

The rise of porcelain tiles for outside spaces is partly attributed to the clean lines and architectural feel that can be achieved. You are literally creating another room outside. Add to that porcelain tiles that co-ordinate from inside to out and suddenly you can have a continuation of your inside space with tiles that co-ordinate from inside to out or a separate space. 

Porcelain tiles have taken gardens by storm over the past years, renowned for their unique combination of both versatility as well as flawless aesthetic appeal. Here at The TilePortfolio we have an eclectic range of porcelain tiles which can adorn any outdoor space.
