Commercial Style Kitchens: Tile Design Ideas

^{Featured Image: Commercial Kitchen Design}

When designing a kitchen with commercial features, you’ll want to go for high quality and convenience while keeping a warm and welcoming feel, rather than the industrial look most commercial kitchens have. 

Here are some tile design ideas that can help you do just that. For an extra bit of kommercial kool design inspiration, check out our Pinterest Board for Commercial Kitchen Designs loaded with ideas!

When preparing delicious food is what you enjoy and spend a lot of time doing daily, efficiency and convenience are a must. 

That means a lot of counter space for prep work and, ideally, a plate staging area. Bianco Montanha Granite is a perfect stone for a long countertop or island.

Using neutral-toned tile from floor to ceiling will brighten up the kitchen and add some personality, making a professional type of kitchen more inviting. 

Suburb Montclair Porcelain is one of many choices that look lovely in this type of design.   

To offset the cold look commercial-grade appliances often create, use a warm-hued tile on the floor for a cozier feel. Our Torreon Classic Travertine tile pairs beautifully with stainless steel equipment.

For all baking enthusiasts, marble countertops are a necessary luxury, as the cold marble surface is ideal for rolling out dough and making a wide variety of delicious pastries and sweet delicacies.

And don’t forget about a convenient place to store all your cookbooks and recipes. Design an easily accessible bookshelf underneath wall cabinets, set above a SOH Stack glass tile backsplash, and an industrial grade kitchen will automatically become more intimate and display the comforts of a modern home. 

Once your commercial style design is complete, you may never leave the kitchen again. Except to purchase more ingredients, of course!
