Tiles will never go out of style and they look very nice in every space you use them: bathrooms, kitchens, entryways and others. There are many layouts to choose from but one that is especially popular right now is stacked. By laying tiles on top of each other, you’ll create a pattern that looks both neat and striking, it’s a non-typical idea to go for as we usually see different patterns.
What Are Advantages Of Stacking Tiles?
You get a super contemporary and sleek look. Such layouts elongate or widen the space visually, which is another plus in our world of small spaces. Stacking tiles is easier than creating other layouts, which means you can do the job yourself.
