1. Get creative!
Creating your own moodboard is so exciting! Our lovely tile samples are a generous 15 x 15cm (there's the odd one that's smaller and a few, like our ceramic wall tiles that are a little larger) but on the whole we try and make them 15 x 15cm.
That means you get decent size samples and a great idea of your chosen tiles colour, texture and effect. So you can play around with colour schemes to your hearts content.
TilePortfolio samples are usually 15 x 15cm
With our 'go-the-extra-tile' service you can choose up to 4 free samples - and if you'd like to tell us a little more about your project, if we can, we'll add one or two more samples that might work for you!
It's just another great reason to get stuck in and get creating. Collecting little things along the way that you think might work with your colour scheme is perfect for introducing other colours.
2. Keep on the move
Moving your tile samples around to different places within the room helps you to see how they might work in different places. If you are choosing the same tiles for floor and wall then trying them on both planes is key because they will look slightly different.
3. Light it up
Check out your samples morning, noon and night. The light will make them look slightly different and there's nothing better than seeing that morning sun, evening glow and artificial light bounce across a surface. If you can, check them against furniture and other key items.
See how light plays with your chosen samples by looking at them at different times of the day in different lights
