From the experts at Baked Tiles Terracotta has been used in homes for centuries, but its growing popularity in contemporary interiors has introduced a new generation of homeowners to its warmth, texture, and timeless character. If you’re tempted by terracotta, then understanding how this natural material behaves is essential. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Baked-Real-Terracotta-Parquet-30_5cm-x-7_5cm-13.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Baked-Real-Terracotta-Parquet-30_5cm-x-7_5cm-13.webp?v=1778732202","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68595511820673","size":233992,"createdAt":"2026-03-07T03:27:12Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"SEOon_Real_Terracotta.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/SEOon_Real_Terracotta.jpg?v=1763469658","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/67275608916353","size":2858676,"createdAt":"2025-11-18T12:40:50Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-2","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} VIEW OUR REAL TERRACOTTA 1. Real Terracotta Is a Natural Material Terracotta is made from natural clay that is shaped and fired at relatively low temperatures. Unlike porcelain or ceramic alternatives, authentic terracotta retains an earthy, organic quality that gives every tile subtle tonal variation, texture, and character. 2. Terracotta Changes Over Time One of terracotta’s greatest strengths is the way it ages. Over time, the surface develops a richer patina that adds depth and authenticity to your home. 3. Sealing Is Essential Real terracotta is naturally porous, which means it absorbs moisture and stains if left untreated. Proper sealing is one of the most important steps in installing and maintaining terracotta tiles. We have a useful terracotta document that we recommend reading here. We are frequently asked “how often should I reseal terracotta flooring?” and it largely depends on how the space is used. Busy footfall areas such as hallways and kitchens may benefit from resealing every year, while lower-traffic spaces can often go longer between treatments. Regular maintenance helps protect the tiles while preserving the rich warmth and character that makes real terracotta so timeless. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Baked-Real-Terracotta-Parquet-30_5cm-x-7_5cm-7_ea6096fa.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Baked-Real-Terracotta-Parquet-30_5cm-x-7_5cm-7_ea6096fa.webp?v=1778732130","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/66675850543489","size":370948,"createdAt":"2025-09-20T03:03:53Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"SEOon_Havana_Night_Fan_Indigo_Indigo_Plain_Real_Terracotta_Parquet_1.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/SEOon_Havana_Night_Fan_Indigo_Indigo_Plain_Real_Terracotta_Parquet_1.jpg?v=1781107639","height":4608,"width":3712,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69651626787201","size":3776210,"createdAt":"2026-06-10T16:07:14Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-3","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} 4. Terracotta Works Beautifully with Underfloor Heating Terracotta retains heat exceptionally well, making it an excellent partner for underfloor heating systems. 5. Terracotta works in both contemporary and classic homes If you have a more contemporary home, terracotta can feel just as at home as it does in more traditional spaces. Real terracotta can be surprisingly refined, depending on the grout colour and installation pattern you choose. Parquet, basketweave, stacked, and brick bond layouts are all worth exploring. 6. It Requires the Right Cleaning Products Terracotta is porous and naturally alkaline-sensitive so harsh chemical cleaners should be avoided.  Regular sweeping or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment will help remove everyday dust and dirt, while a pH-neutral cleaner is best for keeping the surface clean without damaging the tile or sealant. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"SEOon_Baked_Real_Handmade_Terracotta_Lifestyle_3_Cropped.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/SEOon_Baked_Real_Handmade_Terracotta_Lifestyle_3_Cropped.jpg?v=1781107712","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69651629506945","size":603065,"createdAt":"2026-06-10T16:08:28Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"SEOon_Baked_Real_Terracotta_Grouted.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/SEOon_Baked_Real_Terracotta_Grouted.jpg?v=1781107715","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69651629867393","size":1628309,"createdAt":"2026-06-10T16:08:30Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-8","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} 7. Colour Variation Is Part of the Beauty Terracotta ranges from soft pinks and warm oranges to rich burnt reds and earthy browns, with natural variation throughout. 8. Installation Matters More Than You Think Installing real terracotta requires more care than standard porcelain tiles due to its porous and often handmade nature, we recommend you always work with an expert. 9. Real Terracotta Brings Warmth Terracotta brings a natural warmth, texture, and sense of authenticity into the home that few other materials can match. Its rich earthy tones pair beautifully with warm neutrals, soft whites, natural wood, olive greens. We even love terracotta teamed with blues and pinks. Take a look at our Mediterranean Edit here, for all the inspiration you might need. 10. Grout Choice Makes a Big Difference The grout you choose can completely change the overall look of terracotta tiles. A lighter grout creates a softer, more contemporary feel, while warmer grout tones enhance the rustic character of the floor. Because terracotta is porous, tiles should always be properly sealed before and after grouting to help prevent staining and make cleaning easier during installation. We also suggest this product is installed with a wider joint to enhance its rustic quality. We suggest teaming terracotta with our Alabaster Grout And finally, enjoy it! Real terracotta is a material to be lived with and enjoyed. Its warmth, texture, variation, and natural ageing are exactly what makes it so special.

TOP TIPS FROM INTERIOR DESIGNER LESLEY TAYLOR BIID, FOUNDER OF BAKED TILES There is no denying it, using the same tile internally and externally creates a seamless visual flow that immediately elevates a space. When done properly, it’s not just a stylistic decision, it’s a really practical one. As an interior designer, I often specify continuous flooring where the inside meets the outside. It’s one of the most effective ways to visually extend a room, making spaces feel larger, calmer, and more connected to their surroundings. WHY IT WORKS Consistency in materials removes visual breaks. When your eye isn’t interrupted by bulky thresholds, changes in tone, or competing finishes, the entire space will feel much larger. This is particularly powerful in: •Kitchen-diner extensions opening on to terraces •Garden rooms or orangeries •Contemporary renovations where glazing plays a dominant role The result is a quiet confidence, nothing is shouting for attention, yet everything feels considered. Large-format porcelain tiles tend to work especially well here, enhancing that uninterrupted feel and reducing grout lines both inside and out. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Country-House-Flagstone-20mm-Paver-60_5cm-x-90_5cm-4.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Country-House-Flagstone-20mm-Paver-60_5cm-x-90_5cm-4.webp?v=1774585619","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68595550323073","size":418026,"createdAt":"2026-03-07T03:29:19Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"Parterre_Square_Black_Square_White_Lifestyle_3.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Parterre_Square_Black_Square_White_Lifestyle_3.jpg?v=1776701045","height":4608,"width":3712,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69124099506561","size":5389576,"createdAt":"2026-04-20T16:04:00Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-2","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","type":"imageGallery"} Products Featured: Country House Flagstone Paver, Parterre Square Black & White THE PRACTICAL REALITY This approach isn’t as simple as choosing one tile and running with it everywhere. The specification is critical for a successful life-long installation. For external use, you must be looking at a 20mm thick porcelain tile if it’s being installed on a standard external build-up (such as on pedestals, gravel, or sand). This thickness provides the structural strength required. The exception is when you are tiling onto a solid concrete slab. In that case, a thinner, frost proof tile can be used with great effect. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"London-Town-Geo-Sage-20cm-x-20cm-4.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/London-Town-Geo-Sage-20cm-x-20cm-4.webp?v=1774586070","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68890653229441","size":514220,"createdAt":"2026-03-27T03:09:50Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Marrakesh-Terracotta-Square-Dark-Matt-15cm-x-15cm.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Marrakesh-Terracotta-Square-Dark-Matt-15cm-x-15cm.webp?v=1774585776","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68890631537025","size":222514,"createdAt":"2026-03-27T03:04:37Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-3","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} Products Featured: London Town Geo Sage, Marrakesh Terracotta Square Dark Matt SLIP RESISTANCE VS EASY TO LIVE WITH External tiles need to be slip-resistant and frost proof. That’s non-negotiable. British weather alone makes that decision for you. However, the challenge comes when you’re trying to match that external finish internally. Highly textured, anti-slip tiles might perform beautifully outdoors, rainwater washing over them will help to keep them clean, but inside they can become impractical as they: •Hold onto dirt •Are harder to clean •Feel harsh underfoot The key is balance. Some of our ranges come with the same tile in two finishes: •A higher slip rating for outside •A softer, more refined finish for inside Visually, the tiles look identical, whilst being fully fit for their respective conditions. If you insist on using the same tile in both areas, be very careful about the slip rating, you want something that meets safety requirements externally but doesn’t make everyday living inside unnecessarily difficult. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Marrakesh-Terracotta-Brick-Light-Matt-5cm-x-15cm-18_52b837f4.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Marrakesh-Terracotta-Brick-Light-Matt-5cm-x-15cm-18_52b837f4.webp?v=1775793200","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68369853120897","size":279858,"createdAt":"2026-02-26T03:09:49Z"},{"altText":"Parterre-Square-White-22.5cm-x-22.5cm | floor tiles","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"ParterreSquareBlack_SquareWhiteLifestyle_2_Cropped.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/ParterreSquareBlack_SquareWhiteLifestyle_2_Cropped.jpg?v=1774525788","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68882563563905","size":722613,"createdAt":"2026-03-26T11:49:44Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-4","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} Products Featured: Marrakesh Terracotta Brick Light, Parterre Square Black & White THE DETAIL THAT MAKES IT WORK The threshold between inside and out is also another important element, as it’s what makes the seamless transition work so well. To achieve a seamless transition between indoors and out, ensure that: •Your floor levels are carefully coordinated to be as close as possible •Door thresholds are minimal or flush to enhance the flowing effect It’s also very important to consider drainage, and how rainwater will run off the exterior area to prevent any leaks internally. This isn’t something to resolve at the end of a project and really needs to be designed in from the outset. Using the same tile inside and out is one of those decisions that looks effortless, but it needs to be properly thought through. Get it right, and you create a space that feels expansive, calm, and quietly luxurious.

Our guide by Lesley Taylor BIID interior designer and Founder of Baked Tiles Mediterranean garden style has surged in popularity and its not just the less intensive maintenance that makes it appealing. Its real strength lies in something broader: it connects effortlessly with the way interiors are evolving too. Warmer, softer, more textural spaces are replacing cooler, more rigid schemes—and together, house and garden are starting to feel like one continuous environment. A Different Kind of Garden Mediterranean garden design is defined not just by specific plants but also more by atmosphere. It’s relaxed, tonal, and deliberately understated. Let’s be fair we would rather take time to enjoy the garden that be tied up maintaining it!   Hotter, drier summers, hosepipe bans, and the ongoing frustration of maintaining traditional lawns have pushed many towards something more resilient—and far less labour-intensive. The look enbrances: Gravel and paving replacing large areas of lawn Silvery, aromatic planting—olive, lavender, rosemary Terracotta, timber, and sun-softened materials Informal layouts designed for sitting and lingering {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"Marrakesh-Brick-Green-Gloss-5cm-x-15cm | wall tile","mimeType":"webp","title":"Marrakesh-Terracotta-Brick-Light-Matt-5cm-x-15cm-30.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Marrakesh-Terracotta-Brick-Light-Matt-5cm-x-15cm-30.webp?v=1775793352","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68890632159617","size":356908,"createdAt":"2026-03-27T03:04:52Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"Marrakesh_Terracotta_Brick_Dark_Lifestyle_1.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Marrakesh_Terracotta_Brick_Dark_Lifestyle_1.jpg?v=1775828472","height":4608,"width":3712,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69034714595713","size":4602782,"createdAt":"2026-04-10T13:41:07Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-2","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} Pictured: Marrakesh Terracotta Brick Light Matt and Mint Gloss  Why It Works Here . ..Perhaps Better Than Expected! What’s interesting is how well this style translates to the UK. The warm, muted palette prevents spaces from feeling flat under grey skies, while gravel and free-draining planting handle both heavy rain and dry spells more effectively than traditional borders. There’s also a sense of permanence to it. Evergreen structure, natural materials, and a slightly weathered aesthetic mean the garden holds its own year-round—it doesn’t disappear in winter or peak for just a few weeks in summer. Where Interiors Come Into It The real success of Mediterranean garden style, though, is how naturally it aligns with current interior design directions. This is where many homes are quietly getting it right—not by matching styles exactly, but by creating a shared design language between inside and out. Rustic Country A more restrained version of rustic country sits perfectly alongside a Mediterranean garden. Think limewashed walls, natural stone effect or aged timber look floors, and upholstery in linen rather than anything overly tailored. The palette stays soft—chalky whites, warm neutrals, muted earth tones. Nothing feels overly styled, which is exactly why it works. The same informality you see outside continues indoors. Modern Organic For more contemporary homes, modern organic interiors create a seamless transition. Cleaner lines are balanced with texture—plaster walls, pale woods, soft fabrics—and the palette stays deliberately restrained. Large openings onto the garden become part of the design, not an afterthought. The result is continuity. The same tones and materials move quietly from inside to out, helping to make even the smallest of gardens look as expansive as possible. A Subtle Mediterranean Influence Indoors In some cases, the connection is more direct. Soft architectural details such as arches or niches, textured plaster finishes, and the introduction of handmade elements—ceramics, terracotta, simple joinery—help blur the boundary between house and garden. Done well, this style should never feels themed. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"jpeg","title":"SEOon_Casa_Cotto_Dark_Madinat_White_Arches_1.jpg","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/SEOon_Casa_Cotto_Dark_Madinat_White_Arches_1.jpg?v=1776333112","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/69084766732673","size":695915,"createdAt":"2026-04-16T09:51:48Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-3","componentId":"imageGallery-ekCDDVfFFo96","componentName":"Image Gallery","type":"imageGallery","updatedAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z","createdAt":"2026-04-10T09:10:47.447Z"} Pictured: Casa Cotto Dark  Creating a Seamless Flow What ties all of this together is consistency. A few principles tend to make the biggest difference: Keep the palette aligned across interior and garden Repeat materials—stone effect or terracotta look paving and mediterranean pattern Avoid sharp visual contrasts between inside and out Prioritise texture over decoration Create physical connections between inside and out— where doors, thresholds, sightlines meet or view the garden. It’s about removing the sense that the garden and the interior belong to different worlds. A More Considered Way of Living Ultimately, the popularity of Mediterranean garden style isn’t just aesthetic. It reflects a broader shift towards homes that feel more relaxed. Spaces that work with the climate we’re actually experiencing—and that support a slower, more outdoor-focused way of living. The garden becomes an extension of the house. And the house, in turn, feels more connected to its surroundings.

Creating a beautiful outdoor space doesn’t depend on size, it’s all about how you use your tiles. With the right approach, even the smallest garden can feel open, inviting, and full of character. Tiles provide a durable and design-led foundation, but how you choose, lay, and style them makes all the difference. Whether you’re looking to visually expand a compact space or embrace its proportions with a more characterful finish, these expert tips from Lesley Taylor, Founder of Baked Tiles will help you make confident design decisions from the ground up. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"London-Town-Geo-Cherry-20cm-x-20cm.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/London-Town-Geo-Cherry-20cm-x-20cm.webp?v=1772085369","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68370013061505","size":574850,"createdAt":"2026-02-26T03:21:22Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Dijon-Porcelain-Natural-20mm-Paver-60cm-x-90cm_f109f450.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Dijon-Porcelain-Natural-20mm-Paver-60cm-x-90cm_f109f450.webp?v=1772860701","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68595535348097","size":297218,"createdAt":"2026-03-07T03:28:25Z"}],"isShowCaption":true,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}\n","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-2","componentId":"undefined"} Pictured: London Town Geo Cherry, Dijon Porcelain Natural  1. Define your design direction from the outset Before selecting tiles, decide what you want the space to achieve. Are you aiming to make it feel as open and expansive as possible, or would you rather lean into its size and create something more intimate and characterful? 2. For a sense of space, think large and understated To visually extend the garden, choose larger-format tiles and pair them with grout that closely matches the tile colour. Minimising contrast reduces the appearance of joints, avoiding a grid-like look and helping the space feel more seamless and expansive. 3. Create flow between indoors and out Continuing the same tile style from inside your home into the garden establishes visual continuity. This approach softens the transition between spaces and enhances the feeling of openness throughout. 4. Use lighter tones to enhance openness Lighter tiles reflect more natural light, instantly making a space feel brighter and more spacious. While darker tones can be impactful, they tend to visually compress smaller outdoor areas. 5. Embrace character by focusing on detail If you’re leaning into a smaller, more atmospheric space, detail becomes key. Consider stone-effect porcelain with softly irregular edges, laid with wider joints and finished with pea gravel for a relaxed, rustic feel. Alternatively, introduce subtle pattern and soften the edges with layered planting in pots. Avoid strong borders, corner features, or “rug effect” layouts, as these can visually contain the space and make it feel smaller. With a considered approach, even the most compact garden can feel purposeful, balanced, and beautifully designed.  {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Dijon-Porcelain-Washed-20mm-Paver-60cm-x-90cm_484546b8.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Dijon-Porcelain-Washed-20mm-Paver-60cm-x-90cm_484546b8.webp?v=1772860706","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68595538952577","size":418486,"createdAt":"2026-03-07T03:28:36Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"London-Town-Geo-Sage-20cm-x-20cm-4.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/London-Town-Geo-Sage-20cm-x-20cm-4.webp?v=1774586070","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68890653229441","size":514220,"createdAt":"2026-03-27T03:09:50Z"}],"isShowCaption":true,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}\n","id":"Avada-Tool__ImageGallery-3","componentId":"undefined"} Pictured: Dijon Porcelain Washed, London Town Geo Sage And the finishing touches that make all the difference… How you furnish and style the space is just as important as the tiles themselves. Choose furniture that keeps the floor visible Opt for garden furniture with raised legs rather than solid or modular pieces that sit directly on the ground. Being able to see more of the floor creates a stronger sense of openness and flow. Lift some of the planting off the ground Use a mix of raised planters, wall-mounted pots, or vertical greenery. This draws the eye upward and frees up valuable floor space, making the layout feel less congested. Limit the number of materials and colours A restrained palette helps the space feel calm and cohesive. Too many finishes or competing tones can visually break up the area and make it feel smaller. Use soft layering to add depth Introduce cushions, throws, and planting to soften hard surfaces, but keep arrangements loose and informal. The aim is to add interest without totally overpowering the space. {"layout":"grid","aspectRatio":"3 / 4","imagesSelected":[{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"Country-House-Flagstone-20mm-Paver-60_5cm-x-90_5cm-4.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/Country-House-Flagstone-20mm-Paver-60_5cm-x-90_5cm-4.webp?v=1774585619","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68595550323073","size":418026,"createdAt":"2026-03-07T03:29:19Z"},{"altText":"","mimeType":"webp","title":"London-Town-Geo-Navy-20cm-x-20cm-5.webp","url":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0761/8649/files/London-Town-Geo-Navy-20cm-x-20cm-5.webp?v=1774586079","height":2357,"width":2048,"id":"gid://shopify/MediaImage/68890654376321","size":500974,"createdAt":"2026-03-27T03:10:13Z"}],"isShowCaption":false,"imagesInARow":2,"device":"desktop","imagesInARowMobile":2,"caption":"","isAutoPlay":false,"hideButtonAction":false,"captionAlign":"center","hidden":false,"locked":false,"blockName":"Image gallery","cssContent":".Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n padding-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-left: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__Container {\n margin-right: 0px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List {\n width: 100%;\n display: flex;\n justify-content: flex-start;\n flex-wrap: nowrap;\n gap: 13px;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List > * {\n flex: 0 0 calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n max-width: calc((100% - 13px) / 2) !important;\n min-width: 0;\n}\n.Avada-ImageGallery__List img {\n width: calc(50% - 6.5px) !important;\n display: block;\n}","componentId":"undefined"} Pictured: Country House Flagstone Pavers, London Town Geo Navy
