The modern world is a busy, bustling place. This means that when we return to our homes, most of us want a tranquil, relaxing space we can unwind in.
One approach is open plan living, where rooms blend beautifully into one another to create shared spaces that are a joy to spend time in.
Here we’ve picked out some beautiful examples of open plan living in action, and selected some wall and floor tiles that can help you create that seamless aesthetic you seek.
Open-Plan living Tile Choices
Where you make and where you eat your food need not be two separate entities. By creating a shared kitchen and dining area in your home, you can smoothly enjoy meals whatever the time of day.
Features such as coffee bars and kitchen counters can also create great eating areas that coordinate with your surfaces and food preparation areas.
Flow your Interiors Outdoors
A great way to flow your indoor design outside and extend your external living space is with outdoor porcelain tiles. 20mm porcelain slab tiles are strong, frost-proof, non-slip and fade resistant so the perfect low maintenance solution for your patio or terrace.
Outdoor porcelain tiles will bring a touch of style to your exteriors, extend your living area and will help create the perfect place for relaxing or entertaining.
If you want to keep authentic and bring a bit of the outdoors indoors we think that Natural Black slate tiles are a good way to go here, providing the kind of bold, resilient tile that works well regardless of location.
Exquisite Living Area Tiles
Airy, peaceful spaces to relax in are wonderful, and this can be particularly enjoyable when achieved in a living room.
Stylish, contemporary spaces to read, watch tv or simply put your feet up definitely lend themselves to open living.
The use of light is important here, as is the selection of floor tiles. We suggest wood-effect floor tiles, as these can provide the perfect base to make the open plan living area of your dreams.
