Why Choose Moroccan Kitchen Tiles?
-
Statement-making design: Rich Moroccan motifs give your kitchen unique personality — whether on a backsplash wall or full floor.
-
Versatile application: Suitable for both wall cladding and floor use, giving consistent design flow across your kitchen space.
-
Finishes & materials: Choose gloss for reflective drama (ideal for backsplashes) or matt for floor safety and sophistication.
-
Multiple sizes for every layout: Small formats (such as 2″×2″, 3″×3″) lend intricate mosaic feel; larger formats (12″×12″, 24″×48″) bring bold pattern scale and fewer joints.
-
Materials built for use: Ceramic offers affordability and versatility; vitrified gives added durability and low-porosity performance for floor traffic.
Where & How to Use in Your Kitchen
-
Backsplash wall: Use patterned Moroccan tiles behind the cooktop or sink area — a high-impact focal point.
-
Accent wall: Cover one full wall in Moroccan tiles and pair with plain tiles on others for balance.
-
Floor area: Use larger sizes (12″×12″, 24″×48″) for main kitchen flooring — the pattern can tie in with wall designs for a harmonised look.
-
Transition zones: At threshold between kitchen and dining, you can use smaller formats (like 3″×6″ or 4″×4″) as decorative inlay or border to delineate spaces.
How to Plan Your Moroccan Tile Layout
-
Select size based on area: Smaller tiles (2″×2″, 3″×3″) are ideal for intricate mosaic backsplashes; big sizes (24″×48″) suit open floor areas and fewer grout lines.
-
Finish choice: Gloss finish enhances colour vibrancy and light reflection — great for walls; matt finish is safer for floors and high-traffic zones.
-
Material selection: For floor use especially, vitrified is preferred for its strength and durability. Ceramic works excellently for walls and lighter use surfaces.
-
Colour harmony: Pick two dominant tones from the tile pattern and use them in your cabinets, countertops or décor for cohesive styling.
-
Grout strategy: Use a grout colour that blends with the tile’s background colour to let the pattern shine; contrasting grout can frame each tile and heighten pattern visibility.
-
Lighting: Warm lighting (around 3000 K) will enrich earthy Moroccan tones; cooler lighting (3500-4000 K) gives sharper crispness to colour contrasts.
Installation & Care (India-Ready Tips)
- Ensure your kitchen substrate (floor or wall) is level and clean before laying tiles.
- Use the correct adhesive based on substrate type (wall or floor) and tile material (ceramic or vitrified).
- For floor use, check slip rating if going matt; ensure no gloss finish in wet or high-traffic areas for safety.
- Use a good quality, non-staining grout (especially if tile pattern is busy) and wipe off excess before curing.
- Routine maintenance: Sweep or dust mop to remove grit; use a mild pH-neutral cleaner for both matt and gloss finishes; avoid harsh acids or abrasives that might dull printed patterns.
Design Inspiration & Styling Ideas
Moroccan patterned tiles bring both history and flair into your kitchen — from traditional star-and-cross motifs to vibrant patchwork looks. For a bold statement, pair patterned floor and wall tiles with minimalist, sleek cabinetry and neutral countertops. If you prefer subtlety, use Moroccan tiles as an accent zone only (e.g., an island front or backsplash), and keep surrounding surfaces plain to let the art-inspired tile stand out.
