Designing a swimming pool has many components. When determining the aesthetic of your pool, tile is an area you can get creative with. There will always be trendy options, along with the classic ones. Here we go over a few of those that happen to be quite popular amongst homeowners right now.
Glass and ceramic are considered great materials for pool areas. Glass is resistant to water and the associated stains, while also not being affected by warm temperatures. There are so many color variations to choose from and we love the extra twinkle that this tile gets when the sun hits! Ceramic gives you a different look, but when installed and maintained correctly it can last for a long time. This can be cost-effective and if you are feeling up to it, you can bring this tile throughout your backyard area, even making a DIY project out of it. There are also a lot of patterns and colors to choose from with this option as well. When it comes to color, many homeowners opt for blue tones as it represents water. For those looking to be a bit more trendy, you can select a bold color that will become the focal point of your backyard.
When selecting the tile for your pool, you want to ensure that it is made to withstand the environment of a pool and external temperatures. Tile can not only be used for your pool, but also as a way to tie in design components and elevate certain features such as water features or a sun shelf. Both of these additions are great ways to add detail and when adding tile, remember that it is a great way to add contrast if you should like.
