4 Trends in New Tile Products for 2025
Wallpaper, handcrafted and stone looks were among those featured in new collections at recent trade shows in Las Vegas
Whether neutral and calm or boldly colored and shaped, tile choices keep expanding. New tile collections at The International Surface Event (TISE) and at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), both held in Las Vegas earlier this year, displayed eye-catching, statement-making products along with more subdued selections. Tile designers are creating collections that are reflecting handmade and throwback home design trends.
“It kind of focuses on that handcrafted feel,” says Shelly Halbert, director of product design for Marazzi. “We see people are going back to more of the nostalgic, handcrafted, eclectic blends of different types of things in the house. You might have a little bit more traditional, but then you have a pop of art. So we’re seeing a lot of blending.” Here are the latest trends in tile, with some products already out and some arriving later this year.

Wallpaper is a big trend in home design right now, and the look is showing up in tile. If you want the look but don’t want to have to worry about humidity and steam damaging your wallcovering, tile may be the perfect solution. Here, Emser’s Python pattern from its new Zambia collection makes a luxurious bathing backdrop.

Another wallpaper look that adds vintage appeal is Emser’s new Piante glazed porcelain from its Enhance collection of special-order tile. The 23-by-47-inch tiles are large enough to create a wallcovering that’s easy to install and maintain. There are eight floral and foliage designs in pinks, blues and greens. The Romantic design is shown here.
Thorn is another pretty vintage-looking design from Emser’s new Piante collection of porcelain tile.
When you need a space to shimmer, Daltile’s new Iridescent Isles may be your answer. The metallic-look porcelain tiles measure a slim 2 by 9 inches and come in six glossy colors. Daltile’s designers emulated the Japanese ceramic firing technique of raku, which results in a tile with a crackled finish and dark border. Here, Iridescent Isles in Seaweed is used with a colored grout for a seamless look.

Here’s Daltile’s new Iridescent Isles in Seashell. Laura Grilli, Daltile’s director of product design, spoke of the challenges of simulating raku glazing, specifically keeping the color she wanted while achieving a metallic look that’s also durable. “We were able to achieve a metallic finish, which cannot be attacked by acid, something that typically happens with the regular metallic glazes,” she says.

Emser’s Eclissi makes a one-of a kind statement on a backsplash with the new collection’s White Cross with Cotto Star. The 5-by-5-inch handcrafted-look porcelain tiles come in three colors and are joined by an 8-by-9-inch hex shape.
Daltile’s new Artefino mosaic porcelain tiles are divided into three collections: Vintage, Element and Jewel, each reflecting a palette of deep or pastel tones in seven different mosaic shapes, ranging from 1-by-6-inch pencil to 3-inch pyramid hexagon. Antiqued Brass from the Jewel collection in the 3-inch framed hexagon shape radiates opulence on this backsplash.
The Artefino Jewel raised pyramid hexagon from Daltile, shown here in Aquamarine, adds drama to a design. “People are expecting not only a visual but a tactile experience in design, not only feeling tactile but the interplay of light, with fluted or handcrafted edges,” Michelle Corley of Daltile says.
Three-dimensional textures and grooves on Emser’s new Prismara ceramic wall tile also bring the drama. The geometrically striking 6-inch-square tiles are available in six colors and several patterns to mix and match. The color Snow is seen here in coordinating patterns.
2. Stone Surge
Tile that looks like stone, as well as the real thing, continues to show up in multiple new product collections. Marble, limestone and travertine are particularly popular, valued for their ability to add elegance in any room setting.
Marazzi’s new Forgehaus porcelain and ceramic tiles mimic granite with agglomerate stones mixed in. The 12-by-24-inch ceramic tile in Basalt lends a ruggedly modern feel to this backsplash. There are also 2-by-4-inch trapezoid mosaics for the wall. Choices for the floor include 12-by-24, 24-inch-square and 24-by-48-inch porcelain tiles.

Marazzi’s new Forgehaus agglomerate stone-look porcelain and ceramic tile comes in four earthy colors. Basalt is shown here. “There are different-sized stones,” Halbert says. “They’re raised and then you see the sinking around them. So it gives it more of a tactile visual experience. It kind of falls into that brutalism trend that we’re seeing.”
Here’s the Terra color ceramic trapezoid mesh-mounted 2-by-4-inch mosaic from Marazzi’s new Forgehaus collection.
Sometimes nothing beats the luxury of real stone, especially marble, despite the extra maintenance required. Daltile’s new Ecclesia marble comes in a variety of polished or honed choices, from 12-by-24-inch floor tile in four colors to wall mosaic tiles in eight shapes. Here, the polished Cristallo Blend Feather mosaic gives a wall a refined graphic look.

Arizona Tile’s new Invictus Vein Cut series features porcelain tile that resembles vein-cut travertine, which is cut against the grain of the stone. It’s available in four colors, including the Beige shown here. There are 12-by-24-inch and 24-by-48-inch rectangles, including one in an antislip finish for outdoors in the larger size. Mosaics include the 4-inch hex and large chevron seen here, as well as 2-inch squares.
Daltile has fun with marble looks in its new Sovran porcelain tile. The collection has eight Art Deco-inspired patterns, including bold black-and-white geometrics. The Weave pattern shown here makes a bold statement on the wall. The collection also includes 24-by-48-inch floor tiles in three marble-y colors.
Daltile’s Grilli says of the Sovran collection: “When you see it in person, it’s satin but with veining, so you see depth, the idea of a timeworn, aged type of stone. We’re also offering marble inlays. What we’re trying to do is create with one piece beautiful marble mosaics, a touch of green and the trend of luxury and bold color.”

Arizona Tile’s new Intense Italian-made porcelain tile was inspired by sedimentary limestone. You can choose from four colors, and sizes include 12 by 24 inches, 24 inches square and 24 by 48 inches, along with 2-inch-square mosaics. The 24-by-48-inch size features Trait, an engraved texture that mimics chiseled stone, as seen here in the Beige Trait tile. The line will also include mixed chevron and mixed 4-inch hex mosaics. “People love the look of natural stone — and the ease of care the porcelain provides. The Trait tile within the series offers a textured look and this is a current trend at the moment,” Arizona Tile’s Angie Orr says.
Daltile’s Calligo series does a good job of fooling you into thinking its ceramic wall tile and large-format porcelain floor tile is natural travertine. The tiles come in three colors, including the Nimbus 1-by-6-inch mosaics shown here.
This bathroom features Daltile’s Calligo travertine-look porcelain floor tile in the 15-by-30-inch size in Almond, along with 1-by-6-inch mosaics on the wall inset behind the tub.
MSI’s UrbanSlat 16-by-48-inch ceramic tile has a three-dimensional fluted pattern in wood and new marble looks. The three new marble looks have a satin finish and come in two colors, including the Marmi Grey seen here on the backsplash. With minimized grout lines, the marble pattern appears seamless.

3. Warm and Earthy
Although similar to the earth tones of the 1970s, the warm and earthy colors dominating much of today’s tile is a bit more toned down. You’ll be seeing lots of terra cotta, grassy greens and rich golds and not so much burnt orange and harvest gold. Many tile lines include richer blues and greens as complementary tones.
Marazzi’s new Cotto Revival collection has a variety of colors, shapes and designs inspired by handmade, colorful Talavera tile. Its porcelain floor tile is available in four earthy colors, in 8-inch squares, 2-by-9-inch rectangles and an 8-by-8-inch hex, shown here in Alpaca.

Daltile’s designers created the Brick color for their new Indoterra porcelain tiles to be on-trend with today’s popular terra-cotta clay looks. “It’s really kind of the idea of re-creating this sort of almost desert-like dry touch, typical of the natural clays. And it’s offered in both warm and cool colors,” Grilli says.
Arizona Tile’s new Glam series of narrow subway tiles features seven tones: Sage, Green, Blue and four neutrals. “Our Glam series has gorgeous, rich colors in both matte and glossy finishes, which will liven up any room,” Orr says.

4. Fluted and Fabulous
The three-dimensional extruded and textured tile trend is showing no signs of slowing down, with fluted and slatted surfaces dominating the class. Convex and concave surfaces in a variety of colors aim to dress up room designs from modern to vintage.
Arizona Tile’s new Gem is shown here in Salvia. A range of seven muted colors and two neutrals is available on mesh sheets that hold a random assortment of 2-by-16-inch convex, concave and flat tiles. “Midcentury modern style is still going strong in 2025, and our Gem series is a really cool offering that works well with that design trend,” Orr says.

Shown here is MSI’s Gems in Grigio.
