Wood slat tiles for walls
Looking to add some warmth and texture to interior spaces? Wood slat tiles are the perfect way to do both. Whether it’s the bathroom, lounge, bedroom, kitchen or hallway, these are tiles that are both practical and beautiful in equal measure. Perfect for both contemporary and more traditional designs, the real beauty is that wood slat tiles have all the aesthetic beauty of wood with none of the ongoing maintenance. This really is imitation without the limitation. Ceramic wood slat tiles for walls are easy to clean, require no sealing or ongoing maintenance and don’t need to be treated in any way. All this makes them a great option for busy households.
Â
With great quality manufacturers continually pushing the boundaries of design and realism, it can be really tricky to tell some wood effect wall tiles from the real thing. Just check out our Season Caramel and Taupe wood effect tile options explored below. Or our Oakwood wood slat tiles for walls with their two-tone design. Tile designs now replicate the knots and gnarls of wood exceptionally well for ultra-realistic tiles – so much so these tiles can look like the real thing.
Ceramic tiles and performance
Both porcelain and ceramic tiles are well known for their superior scratch and wear resistance and both materials are a great choice for the walls and floors of homes and busy households. These are materials that are easy to clean aswell as being stain resistant.
Â
Bathrooms are of course, prone to wet, humid and damp conditions, and so from a practical perspective using wood in the bathroom isn’t always a good idea. Timber can warp and bend. Opting for ceramic wood slat tiles for walls can be the perfect answer. Ceramic tiles won’t warp or bend with moisture so they are perfect for bathroom walls and showers. In addition, they are easy to clean and are a great way to add texture to spaces for a warm and welcoming feel.
Â
And these tiles are not just limited to bathrooms. Wood slat tiles for walls make great feature walls in kitchens, they can add tone and texture to hallways, or act as a feature wall in the lounge. Â
Tile design and colour
Leading manufacturers are continually pushing the boundaries of what is possible with ceramic tiles. The knots and gnarls of wood are echoed brilliantly in design. But this isn’t just about design. Where in the past, tile collections may have just housed 2 or 3 patterns, now wood tile collections can have a number of patterns ensuring pattern repeats across walls are at a minimum.
Â
With tile trends tending towards warmer tones wood slat tiles in honey, taupe and ebony for example can really tap into the latest design ideas.
Tile format
Specifically designed in a stunning large 1m long by 33.3cm high format, all our wood slat tiles for walls feature rectified ie straight tile edges. This means that grout joints are at an absolute minimum of a few mm so from a design perspective you can create walls with a seamless appearance and create a wall of beautiful wood.Â
Â
These tiles can be used horizontally or vertically too for even more design options. Lighting also plays a part – these are tiles that play with light beautifully, gently reflecting or diffusing light.
Season wood slat tiles for walls
Our Season wood slat tiles for walls are a high quality ceramic Spanish tile with a beautiful soft sheen to the tile surface that bounces light beautifully. The two tones of Caramel and Taupe work brilliantly with neutral tile tones or you can pair both these wall tiles with their porcelain plank options for a beautiful wood look. The 1m x 33cm large format allows you to create a wall of wood with these tiles.
Pairing up wood slat tiles for walls with other tiles
As well as opting for a wood effect plank floor tile that co-ordinates with your wood slat wall tile, you can pair up wood slat tiles with concrete effect porcelain floor tiles such as cements, marbles and more. By opting for a lovely concrete or cement effect floor tile in a neutral tone your wood slat tiles will really stand out and create a wonderful feature wall. Again, leaning into the latest trends, floor tiles in sands, taupes, warm off-whites, creams and similar tones will off-set your wood slat wall tiles beautifully.
As any interior design expert will tell you, it is important to combine the rough with the smooth in interior design and wood slat wall tiles are a great way of introducing texture to walls bringing warmth to design and spaces.
Oakwood wood slat tiles for walls
Our Oakwood wood slat tiles for walls are two-toned bringing a striking visual impact to spaces. Two options both feature different tones. One Honey & Pecan the other Ebony & Caramel. Both co-ordinate with many of the tiles in our Season, Oakwood and Serenity wood plank collections. Again their large 1m x 33.3cm format and straight rectified edges means grout joints are at an absolute minimum of a 2 or 3mm and by carefully selecting the right grout, you really can create a seamless wall of wood with all the benefits that ceramic tiles bring.Â
To conclude
Ceramic wood slat tiles for walls can add tone and texture to spaces and are a great way of introducing wood into spaces where moisture may be present, for example, bathrooms. These easy to clean, easy to maintain tiles bring warmth to designs and can be used across the home with ease.
