Inspo Fridays: Green Subway Tile

May 28, 2021

A hot interior trend of 2020 was without a doubt green subway tile. Kitchens and bathrooms everywhere got major makeovers with tiles that are timeless in shape yet trendy in colour. Bold emerald, deep forest, calming sage, clean mint- there are a TON of different shades of green to choose from to put your own spin on this trend. You can also have a little fun with the way you arrange your tiles- herringbone, basketweave, vertical, horizontal, offset. Scroll through here for some green subway tile inspo!

In the Kitchen

First up is Madeleine’s (@madeleineshouse72) dreamy kitchen with soft teal subway tile arranged in an offset pattern. The rest of the room’s cohesive black accents and light wood allow the tile to be the focus of the kitchen. Simply gorgeous!

Freshen Up!

Arguably one of the best greens is a deep mossy green that works well in both warm and cool-toned spaces. Bre at @brepurposed chose moss green and white subway tiles for her bathroom and the results are incredible! The vertical arrangement, black metal mirror, and pendant lights bring a modern feel to a bohemian space. The best of both worlds!!

@zweidesigns also used dark green subway tile in their guest bathroom, but with a twist! The tiles they chose have a slight texture to them and each one has its own unique colour. Paired with green walls and terrazzo flooring, these tiles create the perfect accent wall.

Shower Time

Shower GOALS, am I right?? Kirsten at @interiorbloomsdesign created this beautiful bathroom using seafoam green subway tile in an offset pattern. The wooden vanity and gold sconce should be sold with the tile- a match made in interior heaven!! Photo by Emily Kennedy Photography (@emilykennedyphoto).

Some Like It Hot

Did your jaw drop? Yeah, mine too. This incredible fireplace lives in Laura Boyer’s (@my_house_at_no.12) living room. The gorgeous emerald tile is as rich and deep as the wood that surrounds it. Luxurious, earthy, and timeless.

Get creative with your tile! This tiled fireplace by @gracedesignsb has a mini mosaic between different shades of pistachio green tile. Adorable! 10/10 would curl up next to this fireplace at night with a good book & a cup of hot cocoa.
