Natural stone kitchen flooring
1. Large flagstone flooring trend
The first trend we are seeing for 2023 has to be large flagstone tiles! For centuries, estates and country homes have used flagstone flooring (natural stone slabs), thanks to their hardwearing characteristics and classic appearance that have stood the test of time. Now more than ever, people are wanting to create this timeless look in their kitchens by choosing large format flagstones. Most commonly, the ‘free length’ or ‘random length’ tile size is opted for, by which the widths are fixed (usually 500mm or 600mm) and then lengths are a random selection ranging upwards to 1000mm.
2. Dijon limestone
We have been importing this natural stone for over 20 years and there are a whole host of reasons why this versatile tile remains an on-trend kitchen flooring option! Dijon is a neutral toned limestone tile that complements an array of colour schemes with its soft beige and light grey hues. The minerals, fossils and calcite veining evident in this limestone tile make it a forgiving and classic choice for both interior and exterior applications.
3. Buff sandstone tiles
A big kitchen flooring trend for 2023 is buff sandstone tiles - offering the ultimate neutral with soft pale wash tones and unique texture. Sandstone, like limestone, is a hardwearing and practical option ideal for kitchen tiles, the texture also provides grip underfoot. Buff coloured tiles complement the much-loved modern country look and also work with an array of different paint colours.
4. Grey limestone kitchen tiles
Grey is a colour that has come and gone throughout the years - whilst warmer tones are also popular options, there is something so classic about a grey limestone tile and this is why we’ve added it to our top 10 kitchen flooring trends for 2023! Whether it’s a soft pale grey or a rich grey with variation from tile to tile, the beauty of limestone is that no two tiles are ever the same – we think a grey limestone adds depth and character to any kitchen space.
Stone look kitchen floor tiles
5. Tumbled effect porcelain trend
There is a rising popularity in stone look kitchen floor tiles, with an increasing range of shades and styles available. A big trend for 2023 kitchen floor tiles is tumbled effect porcelain - together with the character and variation from tile to tile, this soft tumbling effect lends itself beautifully to rustic, and modern country-style kitchens. Many of the tumbled edge porcelains out there are hard to distinguish from a natural limestone!
6. Beige kitchen flooring tiles
Beige is back! Whilst for many years grey seemed to be the only kitchen flooring tile everyone wanted; we have seen a shift towards warmer tones, with the beige trend set to stay! The beauty of beige stone effect porcelain is the variety of prints and tones on the market - from industrial-rustic beige stone tiles to a creamy beige country kitchen floor, there is something for everyone in the stone effect porcelain tile industry.
7. Large format porcelain
With state-of-the-art machinery advancements, large format porcelain is becoming an on-trend and popular tile size to choose. Stone effect porcelain is most commonly in 900x600 or 800x800 tile sizes, but recently 1200x600 super-size porcelain tiles have become available and really do make the perfect addition for a stunning kitchen floor space. A large format tile works in open plan kitchens and helps to minimise grout lines and maximise the focus on each tile. Another consideration is whether you lay the tiles width or length ways from the point you stand (from a doorway or viewpoint). For narrow spaces, width ways will make the space appear wider. For shorter spaces, length ways will make a kitchen appear longer …your eyes will naturally always follow the line of the tiles!
Wood effect kitchen flooring
8. Oak wood-look kitchen tiles
Wood effect porcelain flooring is a more practical choice to solid wood floor and the prints and tones available certainly do mimic the look of real wood! Oak wood-look kitchen tiles offer an authenticity and warmth just as real oak does, working beautifully with oak beams – an ever-popular feature to have whether it be in a new build or an original element of character properties. The Henbury Antique Oak wood porcelain ticks all the boxes for a neutral oak wood-look porcelain. Wood effect porcelain, unlike real wood, is also suitable for underfloor heating. Underfloor heating is an increasingly popular asset to have in the home - providing warmth from the floor up!
9. Herringbone and chevron tile trends
One kitchen floor trend for 2023 has to be herringbone and chevron tile formats! Whether it is a smaller parquet wood tile or a larger wood effect tile, these alternative laying patterns add something a little different to a kitchen. The key distinction between herringbone and chevron is that herringbone tiles meet at a 90-degree angle for an effective zigzag look, whereas the chevron format meet neatly together at one point. Traditionally, parquet kitchen flooring is laid in a herringbone format. Below is the 'Falmouth Sandy Oak' wood look porcelain tile in a herringbone pattern.
10. Whitewashed and coastal wood-look tiles
If you’re wishing to create a light and airy feel to your home, then the whitewashed and coastal kitchen floor trend is for you! The soft neutral tones in wood effect tiles help to create a calm and inviting kitchen space with a coastal feel. The Belsford porcelain collection offers a lovely driftwood effect kitchen floor tile that fits the style perfectly. The distressed look of this wood effect tile also provides a forgiving surface for everyday busy homes.
