Sometimes it is hard to decide when you are designing a whole room what style to go with – rustic or modern? Either looks great and there certainly are tons of unique options in tile that will look great for years to come. You may long for rustic charm but are concerned it will look dated in a few years – perhaps like mauve carpeting? Well, using natural stone in your design is a classic (unlike mauve carpeting). Choose the right tile and you may get bored of it before it is out of style – it could outlive you! You can choose rustic tiles that have a modern flair or even add in unique touches to create that modern look. Here are a few ideas to inspire the designer in you.<\/p>\n

Natural Stone Tile with a Rustic Flare<\/h2>\n

Let’s begin with natural stone. Golden Gate is a\u00a0sedimentary\u00a0stone that evolved from Sandstone. It embodies rustic charm.<\/p>\n

But take this versatile stone and create a herringbone pattern in your layout and you immediately updated this classic look. Or combine it with a modern mosaic tile on the wall to give it a more modern edge.\u00a0Natural Stone Stackstone<\/a>\u00a0is a modern mosaic style tile that is available in several natural stones, including Golden Gate, and other slates, quartzites and marbles. The finish can be textured or polished and is an updated look for classic stones. This stone is ideal for walls and backsplashes. However, stackstone also makes a bold modern look when used on floors<\/p>\n

To update the rustic look of natural stone even more, the\u00a0Soh Glass Stone Stack Tile<\/a>\u00a0is a mosaic that combines natural stone with glass. The glass adds a bit of shimmer and sophistication to stone. Take the look a step further by adding in a band of\u00a0Mineral Mosaics<\/a>\u00a0as in this handsome kitchen backsplash.<\/p>\n

Mineral Mosaics<\/a>\u00a0are metal tiles on a ceramic body and they add a touch of metallic to your design. The copper version blends in perfectly with a more rustic design and is ideal for a focal wall or backsplash to add a bit of warm color to your room.<\/p>\n

Modern design does not have to be cold or hard, just as rustic doesn’t have to mean “country”. If you use\u00a0Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Water<\/a>\u00a0as inspiration featured above, you understand that modern and rustic are never mutually exclusive. It certainly is not “dated” but it is charming. Get started pairing a variety of natural stone or mosaic tiles in our\u00a0Just Imagine Visualizer Tool<\/a>.
