Guest Contributor Fina Meraz: Top 3 Tips for Using Tile Accents to Elevate Your Home's Exterior

When it comes to enhancing your home's exterior, you may want to consider incorporating tile. The right tile accents can make all the difference. Tile adds texture, color, and visual interest, transforming ordinary spaces into something special. We spoke with tile expert, Fina Meraz, CEO and owner of Tile Designs by Fina to ask her what top tips she recommends when elevating your home's exterior with tile accents.

1. Incorporate Textured Materials for Warmth and Depth

Elevate the look of your home with textured tiles, like stone. Textured stone creates warmth, depth, and interest, creating an inviting and sophisticated exterior. Seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor spaces of your home by incorporating stone both inside and outside of the home. This approach not only elevates the home's look but also enhances its ambiance, providing a unified design that feels intentional and well-thought-out.

2. Elevate Commercial Spaces with Colorful Tiles

Tile isn’t just for residential exteriors; it can also transform commercial spaces. Colorful tiles are a surefire way to liven up any exterior. Vibrant patterned tiled arches draw the eye upwards while massive floor murals filled with detailed patterns create a memorable experience for your patrons. These images exhibit precisely how thoughtful tile placement can elevate a commercial space to new heights.

To complete your exterior's elevated look, pair your tile accents with stylish and high-quality house numbers from Modern House Numbers. Our house numbers are made from solid, recycled aluminum and handcrafted in the USA, providing the perfect finishing touch.
