Savvy Subway Tile Designs

Granite Transformations reintroduce you to the most popular subway tile designs.

If you’re wondering where the name of this popular tile design originated, we’ll give you one guess. Hint: The answer is obvious. You guessed it! Subway tiles were first used in New York City subways – or mass transit tunnels – in the early nineteenth century. Since then, subway tile has stood the test of time as one of the industry’s most timeless tile choices. You may wonder why such a plain rectangular shape would still be in demand today? The answer is as simple as its shape: Versatility.

Granite Transformations would like to reintroduce you to subway tile and show you the many ways it can be installed to create fun and interesting patterns which can bring interest and nostalgia to any room in your home. Here are some beautiful examples of our subway tiles as well as a taste of today’s most popular subway tile designs.

Vertical lines

Change is a good thing. Try turning things around, literally. Installing subway tile vertically instead of horizontally draws the eye up and gives a more spacious and chic appearance to a small room.

Mixing it up

Today’s homeowners are all about individuality and out-of-the-box design. Here, a traditional subway tile backsplash is partnered with a more elaborate subway tile accent wall to create a striking balance to this beautiful kitchen.

Blending colors

Your backsplash can be your kitchen’s ultimate accessory. It’s the one place in your kitchen where you can go all out and express your personality with flair and originality. The multi-colored backsplash featured here is a real showstopper as it adds just the right amount of pizazz to this otherwise neutral kitchen.
