From your home office to staff kitchens there are plenty of opportunities for tile in the work place. Office spaces are only getting more stylish and tile is a perfect way to add a pop of color or pattern (or both!) to infuse a bit of energy into the work day (and keep those creative juices flowing). We're sharing our favorite ways to work tile into your office below:
A little bit goes a long way:
Looking for something to brighten your office space? A bit of tile can go a long way, whether it's in a staff kitchen, bathroom floor or accent wall.
If you have a kitchen with an island, tiling the face can add a great focal point. Take inspiration from Light Lab's triangle installations; that small swatch of pattern has a lot of impact.

Light Lab also has a bathroom floor that features a bold triangle pattern (perfect for encouraging snapssharing during events).
Design tip: If you're working on a commercial office space, go for our Recycled Clay Body for all of your flooring needs. More on that here!

Add Some Movement:

Highlight a classic tile shape, like the hexagon, by choosing a saturated hue and a contrasting grout color, as they did in the Wit & Delight studio kitchen:

Make a Statement:
An office space allows you to really go for it in a way you might not in a residential one. Why not go for bright colors and bold patterns if it suits the setting?
