How to Choose the Right Tiles for Your Home

Tiles are not just about covering walls or floors – they set the tone for your entire home. The right choice of tiles can transform an ordinary space into something elegant, modern, and long-lasting. With leading brands like Johnson Tiles and Kajaria Tiles, available through Orient General Agencies, you can find endless options to match your style and budget.

1. Understand the Area of Use

Living Room → Go for large-format tiles in neutral shades for a spacious look.
Kitchen → Choose easy-to-clean, stain-resistant tiles. Glossy finishes and lighter shades brighten the space.
Bathroom → Slip-resistant tiles are essential for safety. Matte finishes are a good choice.
Outdoor Areas → Opt for heavy-duty, weather-resistant tiles.

2. Choose the Right Material

Ceramic Tiles → Affordable, durable, and great for walls.
Vitrified Tiles → Strong, glossy, and suitable for high-traffic areas like living rooms.
Porcelain Tiles → Premium quality, durable, and water-resistant – ideal for bathrooms and kitchens.

3. Pick a Style That Matches Your Home

Classic Look → Marble and stone-effect tiles.
Modern Touch → Sleek matte-finish tiles in grey, beige, or wood-effect.
Luxury Feel → High-gloss tiles with rich patterns and bold designs.

4. Consider Size and Layout

Bigger tiles create the illusion of space and fewer grout lines, making rooms look neat and spacious. Smaller tiles, on the other hand, are perfect for intricate designs or compact areas.

5. Think About Maintenance

Tiles should not only look good but also be easy to clean and maintain. Brands like Kajaria and Johnson are known for high-quality finishes that resist stains and retain shine for years.
