• If there are children in the house, then give preference to textured relief tiles. It has anti-slip properties.
• If possible, choose a beige tile with a small pattern - on such a surface the splashes will be noticeable much less.

As a rule, bathroom tiles can be glossy and matte. Glossy plates look elegant, bright, they give the room even more light and shine beautifully in successful lighting.

But for example it’s better not to use a glossy finish on the floor, as you can slip on it. As a floor, give preference matte tiles - Its coating is slightly rough, which will reduce the risk of slipping. Matte beige tile does not glare, it looks softer and more comfortable, however, drops of water are very noticeable on its surface, and this is its main disadvantage.

Beige tiles in stores can be represented by different manufacturers and in various shades. The most popular are the following options.
