MOSAIC SUBWAY TILE: BACKSPLASH 

Creating a mosaic subway tile backsplash is one of the easiest ways to upgrade a kitchen. Smaller than regular subway tiles, mosaic subway tiles offer a refined and delicate look, and you will be pleased to know that they are easy to install! The most common pattern for a mosaic backsplash is an ‘offset’, this is the name given to a design where the edges of the tiles are aligned with the center of the tiles above and below. An offset mosaic subway tile backsplash can be used to invigorate a space with a splash of color where needed. 

For a more modern look, many people follow a straight pattern where tiles are applied symmetrically. This design of backsplash is a great way to add a block of muted color making it ideal for a minimalist interior. 

WHICH TYPE OF SUBWAY MOSAIC TILE IS BEST?

There is no best mosaic subway tile since every design is subjective. If you prefer color, you may find that some of our colored tiles work best for your kitchen or bathroom. On the other hand, if you want to keep things stripped back and simple, a classic black or white mosaic tile may be the answer. 

HOW TO INSTALL MOSAIC SUBWAY TILE BACKSPLASH DESIGNS
