The main characteristics of floor tiles for large spaces

Large format : these are floor tiles measuring at least 60×60 that exceed traditional dimensions and are designed to cover large areas with a reduced number of joints. These tiles are ideal for large spaces because they reduce the fragmented appearance and help to create an effect of visual continuity.

Aesthetic effect of continuity : the use of tiles for large-area floors contributes to accentuating the feeling of space and greatly improving the visual appearance of the room, creating an environment that appears larger, brighter and more coherent.

Fewer joints : the size of floor tiles for large surfaces reduces the number of visible joints, contributing to a more uniform appearance. Reducing the number of joints makes the floor more harmonious and visually larger.

Advantages of large area floor tiles

Ease of maintenance : fewer joints means fewer areas where dust and dirt can accumulate, making floor tiles for large spaces easier to clean.

Design versatility : the large area floor tile easily adapts to different decorative styles, whether modern, industrial or more classic. It can be used to emphasise the architectural design of particular spaces, such as a large living room or an entrance hall.

Durability : floor tiles for large surfaces are resistant to wear and scratches, making them particularly suitable for high-traffic environments.

Harmonious floors : in commercial environments such as hotels, shops and restaurants, where the floor needs to reflect the brand image, the use of large area floor tiles helps to maintain a uniform visual image on the floors and gives a sense of continuity that enhances the overall visual experience.

Emphasis on the whole : tiles for large-area floors are often available in neutral shades, which helps to accentuate the effect of continuity and allows other decorative or structural elements of the space to be highlighted. In this way, the emphasis is not on individual tiles or joints, but on the whole. Continuous and uniform surfaces allow other elements such as items displayed in shops to be highlighted without the floor ‘drawing attention’.

How to choose the right floor tiles for large surfaces

Size of the space : the size of the space must be taken into consideration because if the space is very large, large format tiles can be chosen to give an effect of continuity. In smaller spaces, large tiles may be too imposing, but intermediate sizes such as 60×60 cm can balance the aesthetic effect.

Type of effect required : for an effect of uniformity and continuity, choose large format tiles that reduce the number of joints. If a more traditional or rustic effect is desired, opt for smaller formats.

Space for laying : larger tiles require more precise laying, which must be carried out by professionals to avoid misalignment or alignment problems.
