Stacked tiles are among the major trends in home decor, they are the new classics. Stacked tiles will easily give a trendy feel to your kitchen if you place them on the backsplash or the whole wall. Stacked tiles are usually quite skinny ones, and you may clad them vertically or horizontally, and play with textures, too. Let’s find out more about stacked tiles in the kitchen.
What Tiles Can Be Stacked?
As said above, mostly skinny tiles are stacked, they don’t create a bulky and too square look. The color is up to you, there are all kinds of shades and you may also go for wood-inspired or marble tiles for more interest. I totally love Zellige stacked tiles on the backsplash, they bring not only color and a trendy feel but also texture. Make a bold touch in the space with contrasting tiles or go for matching ones for a serene feel. Contrasting and metallic grout can also make your stacked tiles stand out a lot.

What Styles Can Welcome Stacked Tiles?
Stacked tiles are a nice solution for many styles: mid-century modern, contemporary, minimalist, Scandinavian, they give an edgy and bold look to anything. They won’t work well in a vintage space, though as this type of layout is for more modern spaces. Stacked tiles also work nice with other types of tiles like fish scale, subway, hexagon and penny ones.

What Are Pros and Cons Of Stacking Tiles?
The main advantage is that you get a super contemporary and sleek look that will make your bathroom stand out, this is trend that is here to stay. Such layouts elongate or widen the space visually, which is another plus in our world of small spaces. Stacking tiles is easier than creating other layouts, which means you can do the job yourself.
Some homeowners may be not happy with the look, so if you are going to sell your home some day, keep it in mind. When this trend leaves, such a layout may seem outdated, which is another disadvantage.
