If you want to incorporate a pattern into the floor, spice it up with granite tile laid out in a checkerboard pattern. Checkerboard patterns can be striking or subtle, depending on the tile colors you select. For example, if you install a floor with two close shades of brown granite, the checkerboard effect will be subtle, whereas if you pair bluish-gray granite tiles with charcoal-gray granite tiles, the effect will be more obvious. The bigger the difference between the colors you choose, the more eye-catching the checkerboard will be.
Blanket the floor with granite tile of a single color if you prefer a monotone, restful palette or if the rest of the room's furnishings are on the wild side and you want a plain floor to balance them out. The texture and luxurious feel of granite tile ensures that even a solid-color granite tile floor will contribute visual interest and high-end appeal to a room.
Add pizazz to any room with a tile floor featuring sparkly granite tiles. This specialty product can be used to cover the entire floor or selectively within a floor of predominantly non-sparkly granite tiles. A floor enhanced with granite tiles will not only convey an impression of whimsical luxury, it can also add an element of light to a room that gets little natural light or draws attention away from less-than-ideal architecture.
Adorn your floor with engraved granite tiles if you love art and want to incorporate it into every aspect of your home or if you want to make a vanilla room more exciting. Granite tiles can be engraved individually before installation, or singly or collectively after installation. For example, a single, exquisitely engraved granite tile, bearing the family crest or a favorite inscription, can be placed in the middle of a room's entry area as a way of welcoming visitors.
