We have learned much from designer colours and finishes that date easily from the past. We don’t gravitate often to colourful kitchen appliances (no more harvest gold nightmares to worry about that way), or lime green sofas (hello neutral charcoals and taupes). But is it really the way to go all the time? We see a lot of black or white in kitchens and bathrooms, but we don’t often see colours. Likely for this same reason that we may tire of it and it will look oh so dated in no time! But everything, at some point, looks dated anyway, so why not go for your favourite colour in something a bit smaller like a kitchen backsplash or one wall in the bathroom?

Here are some tiles in colours that defy the norm. To have the guts to do this is pretty incredible, because I have to say, the impact is amazing! Right?
