Why Tile Design Matters More Than Ever
In today’s kitchen and bathroom remodels, tile isn’t just a surface—it’s a design statement. From oversized porcelain slabs to hand-formed ceramics, tile has re-emerged as a central feature of luxury design. According to 2025 design insights from leading home trend forecasters—including Houzz, Architectural Digest, and Elle Decor—homeowners are choosing tile not just for its durability, but also for the sophisticated, custom aesthetic it brings to modern spaces.
In Bellevue, especially, where resale value and visual impact matter, tile is an investment in both function and beauty. Whether you’re updating a dated bathroom or designing a new open-concept kitchen, your choice in tile can define the entire space.
