Indoor wall tiles: for what purpose?
Interior wall tiles have long been associated with bathrooms and kitchens. The walls in these rooms are subject to very specific factors, such as high levels of humidity. It is therefore advisable to choose an interior wall covering that is adequately resistant to this. Thus, bathroom wall tiles appear to be the ideal covering given that their low-porosity nature and high water resistance protect walls from damp. The same goes for kitchen wall tiles which, thanks to the wide choice of aesthetic effects, can protect walls from splashes by adorning them with an interior wall covering in porcelain stoneware of unrivalled elegance.
However, the aesthetic evolution of interior wall tiles has led to their arrival in other living areas and interior wall tiles now bring a touch of fantasy or modernity to your living room, hallway or even bedroom. In fact, this trend of laying interior wall tiles in other rooms is gaining ground all the time, and so are adorning all your interior spaces beautifully. In this way, it becomes easy to delineate spaces and redefine their aesthetics to make them original and unique by choosing the interior wall tiles that best suit them.
Aesthetic aspects and colours of interior wall tiles
Novoceram has designed a multitude of collections of ceramic interior wall cladding, all of which have an aesthetic uniqueness and embellish the interior walls of any room with their many effects and colours. Each aesthetic aspect of interior wall tiles allows you to create an interior that reflects your personality and matches your decorating style to highlight it. What’s more, the collections are also available for floor tiles and can result in perfect homogeneity between floor and wall coverings.
The cutting-edge technologies used by Novoceram to create interior wall coverings in stoneware reproduce certain natural materials such as stone or wood more than realistically. The reproduction is so faithful that the difference is visually imperceptible. The interior wall tile therefore has the aesthetic characteristics of stone or wood while offering the advantages of porcelain stoneware. It’s an opportunity to invite nature to become an integral part of your interior rooms, and you can’t turn it down. The interior wall tiles imitation parquet warm up the atmosphere of your interior space and bring it light and cosiness. On the other hand, stone-effect ceramic indoor wall tiles are more sober and noble, reinforcing the character of your room while infusing it with inimitable elegance.
For fans of modernity and minimalist or industrial decoration, there are also interior wall coverings that replicate concrete, cement or even metal. For example, modern interior wall coverings or design effect wall tiles enhance your interior to give it a sleek, contemporary look.
Novoceram also offers several collections specifically dedicated to interior wall cladding which, as they do not have to withstand the loads caused by foot traffic, can use particularly precious materials – metals, shiny and transparent enamels, bright colours – which allow surprising decorative effects to be achieved. This innovative range of ceramic wallpapers offers a refined or more cheerful design. In fact, the patterns on the interior wall tiles are varied and inspired by history, Japanese tradition or even geometric elegance.
In terms of the colours available, there is a wide range for interior wall tiles. Generally speaking, light colours such as ivory, white or beige emphasise the light and accentuate the brightness of the room. Interior wall tiles in these colours are therefore a safe bet for smaller rooms or those lacking natural light, although they can also be laid in a large room to emphasise brightness.
On the other hand, dark colours such as black, dark grey or brown are recommended for larger rooms, as dark interior wall tiles tend to narrow spaces. These neutral colours dress your walls with charm and finesse, and the taupe-coloured wall tiles, for example, are perfectly suited to more modern decorations that evoke industrial, minimalist and sleek styles.
Interior wall tiles: available formats
Interior wall tile formats are fundamental and strongly influence the aesthetic rendering of the room. Depending on the style you want to create in your room, it is necessary to study the different sizes of interior wall tiles so that they enhance your wall walls. Novoceram offers the following options:
from interior wall tiles to small formats such as 20x20cm or 30x30cm, for example. These formats are reminiscent of cement tiles, which have been given a new lease of life. Small indoor wall tiles add character and modernity to your walls, and depending on the designs you choose, they can enhance a strict or classic interior. The 5×5 cm format, reminiscent of a mosaic, also falls into this category. Combined with other larger or rectangular formats, this format of interior wall tiles can give rise to many decorative creations.
a interior wall cladding in medium format with dimensions of 45x45cm. The latter, made from porcelain stoneware, is suitable for all walls as these dimensions are fairly common and are suitable for all rooms, regardless of their size.
from interior wall tiles large format such as 120x120cm, 90x90cm or 80x80cm. The XXL and XL formats of indoor wall tiles are mainly recommended for large rooms, and their aesthetic appeal enhances the walls without overloading them, for an elegant, uncluttered interior. Joint lines are reduced and the result is simply refined.
It may also be worth opting for interior wall tiles with a rectangular shape. The 30x60cm and 10x60cm formats for interior wall tiles and the prestigious 20×120 are particularly well suited to wall decoration. These rectangular dimensions allow you to create striking geometric shapes. The 30x60cm or 20x120cm ceramic indoor wall coverings can therefore be combined with tiles of the same effect in the large format on the floor to form a visually homogenous whole.
The benefits of interior wall coverings
The interior wall tile is the ideal covering not only for its many aesthetic effects, but also for its many benefits that make everyday life easier.
First of all, indoor wall tiles absorb virtually no water and are perfectly resistant to steam and damp. This impermeability makes it suitable for installation in rooms with higher than normal levels of humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens.
Furthermore, interior wall coverings in porcelain stoneware do not see their aesthetic appearance change over time and therefore do not deteriorate. For example, ceramic interior wall tiles are extremely resistant to heat and fire, so they won’t blacken on contact with hot objects. This makes them ideal for use in kitchens and bathrooms.
Finally, cleaning and maintenance are very important.
Finally, cleaning and maintaining interior wall tiles is very simple. Given the low-porosity nature of porcelain stoneware, stains remain on the surface and are easily removed with clear, hot water. If necessary, it can also be cleaned with a product containing more aggressive substances.
Frequently asked questions about tiles for interior walls
Can I lay interior wall tiles in all the rooms?
For a long time, interior wall coverings were associated with bathrooms and kitchens in the form of credenzas or earthenware tiles because the walls, exposed to moisture and frequent stains when cooking food, needed adequate protection. However, interior wall tiles have evolved with the times and now offer contemporary, elegant designs that are suitable for every room in the house, from the living room to the bedroom to the entrance hall. All you have to do is find the style that best suits your interior design.
What size interior wall tiles should I choose?
To choose the size of interior wall tile that will enhance your interior space, it’s essential to consider the size of the room. For large areas to be tiled, large format tiles such as 120X120 can add a touch of purity to walls by limiting the number of joints between tiles. What’s more, in neutral colours, the result will be simply chic and refined. However, it’s also possible to opt for interior wall tiles in rectangular shapes such as 10x60cm or 30x60cm, which lend themselves wonderfully to wall mounting. The geometric contrast that this format can create when combined with large-format floor tiles makes your room unique and modern.
What are the best colours for interior wall tiles?
Ceramic interior wall coverings are available in a wide range of colours, from the most neutral to the brightest. In this case, the choice mainly depends on the style of decoration of the room. Dark colours like brown or grey reinforce the character of your space while giving it a contemporary feel. On the other hand, if you prefer to turn your walls into real frescoes, you can choose ceramic wallpaper, which will become a decorative element in its own right thanks to its unique and inimitable patterns, whether geometric or cheerful and cute.
