As spring tiptoes with a promise of warmer days, interiors are shedding their layers, leaning into a softer and sunnier mood. At Baked Tiles, we’re always keeping an eye on the trends, and this season, it’s all about texture, tradition, and taking the indoors out. Here’s what we’re loving for Spring 2025:
The Rise Of Zellige
Zellige tiles are some of the most authentic you can get. Handcrafted and gloriously inconsistent, they offer a lived-in luxury that’s having a serious moment right now. Expect to see them cropping up in kitchens, bathrooms, even fireplaces. Their glossy glaze and tonal variation bounce light around beautifully, making even the tiniest space feel radiant. Zellige tiles come in many tones, from the classic white to bold blues, reds and ochre tones. Our Journeyman Zellige is a recreation of this traditional tile in a porcelain format, making it much stronger and easier to maintain. It's available in 15 different colours, meaning that whatever look you have in mind, there is likely a shade that's perfect for it!
Trending Traditional: A Modern Nod to the Past
Traditional design is getting a fresh lick of paint: think classic chequerboard floors, heritage tones, and time-honoured tile shapes like metro and hex. But instead of rigid formality, it’s all being reimagined with a softer, lived-in edge. Pairing old-world charm with playful colours or unusual laying patterns brings a real touch of modern storytelling to traditional schemes. The 1860 Collection is perfect for this look, as is the Victorian-coded Bathurst or our Aged Collection which gives a perfect nod to nostalgia.
Bringing the Outdoors In
Nature continues to hold presence in interiors. Earthy palettes, botanical murals, and natural stone finishes are blurring the boundaries between inside and out. They’re turning living spaces into outdoor-inspired havens. Whether it's leafy green tiles in a bathroom or a terracotta hallway that echoes Mediterranean ground, this trend invites an authentic, calming energy into our homes. Tiles like our large format Sardinian Terracotta are perfect for setting the tone, and our Murals collection is full of leafy designs that can breathe life into indoor and outdoor areas alike.
Alfresco: Entertaining In Style
Whether it's a garden kitchen or a balcony bar, outdoor entertaining has levelled up. People are designing exterior spaces with just as much thought as interiors, which is important being that outdoor spaces have their very own requirements. Think slip-resistant tiles, bold stone effects, and tactile surfaces that invite barefoot lounging, for example. Our newly released collection, Alfresco, is a group of patterned outdoor paving tiles that bring subtle Mediterranean influence with weathered patterns and motifs. They are great at setting the tone for al fresco entertaining.
In Summary...
This spring is all about embracing the perfectly imperfect, welcoming the quirks, character, and charm that make a space feel truly lived-in. It’s a season for celebrating heritage, whether through timeworn textures, classic shapes reimagined, or a nod to traditional craftsmanship. And more than ever, we're seeing a deep desire to reconnect with nature, bringing organic tones, earthy finishes, and natural materials into every corner of the home.
From full-blown renovations to those little seasonal tweaks that breathe new life into a room, these trends are endlessly versatile. Whether you're choosing a beautiful kitchen floor tile, refreshing your hallway tiles, or finally creating that dream garden kitchen, we are bound to have a tile you will fall in love with!
