Tile wood-looks only continue to grow in popularity as a long-standing design trend for floors. This stylish and performance-driven alternative to hardwood features a full spectrum of colors and options – from a resurgence in dark and luxe wood tones, to Scandinavian-inspired light hues, and from planks of all sizes to classic parquet and herringbone.
Versatility is key and makes wood-look tile the ideal choice for various interior design aesthetics, whether modern, transitional, traditional or an eclectic mix of all three.
