7 Reasons to Choose Large Format Tiles

Designing a space to flow seamlessly from indoors to out is easy with larger format tiles.

The popularity of larger format tiles continues to grow because their benefits are many including our top 7:

1. The rectangular or square shape of large format tiles is on trend right now.
2. Depending on how they are laid, rectangular large format tiles can make a space look longer or wider & lead the eye to seeing a bigger space.
3. They will create a great visual of luxury and opulence.
4. They are perfect for a seamless flow from indoors to outdoor.
5. Large format tiles require less grout lines and therefore make the space less busy and showcases the stone, not the grout.
6. With less grout lines comes the bonus of less cleaning and easier maintenance.
7. There is less cutting required during installation.
