Add Deep Brown Herringbone Tile in an Off-White Bathroom

The soft off-white walls are instantly contrasted by the dark brown herringbone tile in this space. Use darker-colored tiles if you want to make your bathroom pop. Choosing to go darker on the floors helps to “break up” this bathroom, and the herringbone pattern adds a sense of elegance.

Use a Herringbone Tile Pattern From the Floor to Along the Wall

Light gray stone herringbone tiles cover the bathroom floor and walls to give this space a sleek, luxurious look. Notice how the gray herringbone pattern is cohesive in the bathroom, yet another herringbone pattern is featured in the adjacent room.

In the next room, the homeowner installed wood herringbone floors so that everything flowed together nicely while still showing the difference between the two spaces.

Luxe tones of green and gray give this herringbone tile a contemporary vibe. The homeowner chose to install the marbled herringbone pattern on the shower walls and the floors for a sleek and seamless flow.

Herringbone Tiles as an Accent in an All-Marble Bathroom

Marble tile completely covers just about every inch of this space. However, most of the bathroom features gray and white subway tile, except for the shower floor. Adding the same marble tile but in a herringbone pattern adds a fun touch and gives the shower area a fun, funky touch.

Try Contrasting Tile Colors to Create a Unique Bathroom With Timeless Appeal

In this bathroom, black and pink come together to create a charming vibe. The herringbone tile floor features a sleek black hue, while the shower wall tile boasts the same pattern, but in a light pink. Creating a contrast with different tile colors makes the room look unique but also timeless.

Install a Sleek Herringbone Tile Floor With Stone Slab Walls

The smaller black tiles on the herringbone floor of this bathroom help to ground the space. Large durable stone slab walls add a bold, dramatic touch and lots of visual depth.

Notice how the herringbone tiles are matte black or dark gray, while the slab is lighter and shiny to give it a sleek, shimmering look that’s perfectly suited for the shower area.

Dark Grout Lines Highlight a Classic Herringbone Pattern Made of Smaller Tiles

Small white herringbone tiles give this bathroom endless charm and classic appeal. Incorporating dark grout makes each individual tile stand out and brings it a fun pop.

Use Elongated Ceramic Tiles in a Spacious, Elegant Bathroom

This exceptional bathroom boasts a white soaker tub and a dramatic contemporary glass light fixture that brings it an elegant touch. The large window pulls a lot of natural light into the room, but it’s the elongated herringbone tiles that really stand out.

Using larger tiles like these works well in spacious bathrooms since you have more room to work with. Note that the designer didn’t just use the tiles for the floor, they also installed it up to the ceiling on the walls, too.

Dark-Colored Herringbone Tiles Create a Bold and Dramatic Bathroom

This bathroom boasts a rich color palette including shades of deep red, navy blue, and dark gray. The dark-colored herringbone tiles play nicely with the other dark shades here, including the shiny red subway tiles on the wall. Touches of navy blue paint add even more drama to this space, while the mirrored door helps it look and feel larger.

A Stunning Jade-Toned Herringbone Tile Showcases a Uniquely Shaped Space

A curved cove creates the shower in this bathroom and makes it a truly uniquely shaped space. The use of jade-toned herringbone tiles helps to highlight this area well and makes it stand out against the flat white walls.

Instead of choosing a standard white tile for the shower area, the luscious jade green color adds more depth and excitement to the room while also shining the spotlight on the unusual silhouette.

Add a Subtle, Mini Herringbone Pattern to a Chic White Marble Bathroom

White marble nearly covers every inch of this chic bathroom from the floors and ceiling to the sink and shower. Large rectangular marble tile slabs adorn the walls, and the shower floor features smaller matching square marble tiles.

However, the mini herringbone pattern on the shower walls brings this stylish bathroom a fun touch without going overboard. Finishes of brushed gold on the shower fixture, faucet, and hardware lend an air of elegance to this already beautiful space.

The asymmetrical bathroom design is characterized by the subtle beige floor tiles laid out in a herringbone pattern. The rest of the bathroom is kept rather simple, with chrome fixtures and elegant white wall tiles. The pink shower curtain adds a beautiful touch of color to the space.
