Subway Tiles

Subway tiles (also known as metro tiles) have become a staple in home design due to their classic look and versatility. Originally used in New York City's underground stations, these rectangular tiles have withstood the test of time and remain a popular choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and other spaces. Their simple shape and clean lines make them perfect for both modern and traditional spaces.

Why Choose Subway Tiles for Your Home? 

Subway tiles offer the perfect balance of form and function. Their timeless appeal makes them suitable for a wide range of design aesthetics — whether you're curating a minimalist kitchen splashback or a heritage-inspired bathroom feature wall. 

Beyond aesthetics, subway tiles are exceptionally practical. They're resistant to moisture, effortlessly easy to clean, and crafted to withstand the demands of daily life — all while maintaining their polished appearance for years to come.

How Can Subway Tiles be Maintained?

One of the best aspects of subway tiles is their ease of maintenance. A quick wipe with warm, soapy water will do the job.
