We’ve all wondered how to make spaces in our home pop! LIVDEN has got us covered. As a company centered on sustainability, accessibility, and originality, you know you are bringing the best into your home. The tiles are made from recycled materials while displaying a stunning array of patterns. As if the product is not enough, they are here to teach you all about using tile in small spaces. Here, we specifically look at its use in and around fireplaces to make them stand out. You may have thought you’d seen it all, but these tips will have you rethinking your space very soon.
Tip 1: Amplify Accent Colors
Decorative fireplace tile is the perfect opportunity to amplify the accent colors in your overall design palette. Look for a pattern tile that predominantly displays one or more of your accent colors to reinvigorate your fireplace design!

Tip 2: Create Contrast
Pack a punch with your fireplace design by selecting a decorative tile that showcases a bold, modern design in a colorway that contrasts the other elements in your design plan.
Tip 3: Try Large-Scale Designs
Don’t be afraid of large-scale tile designs. For example, a 16×16 tile design can not only turn your fireplace into a stunning focal point, but it can also make your entire space feel much larger than it is. With a large-scale tile design, you can easily play with proportions while still making your fireplace feel fresh.

Tip 4: Try Blending Materials
Looking for a budget-friendly way to update your fireplace? Try strategically blending a small amount of patterned tile with other neutral materials, like wood or plain Terrazzo tile. With a pattern tile that really pops, you don’t have to use a lot of tile to create the visual impact you’re looking for!
Tip 5: Choose Sustainable Materials
We are going to let you in on a little secret: you don’t have to sacrifice design for sustainability! You can add an element of sustainable design and extra visual interest by using modern recycled materials. For example, LIVDEN offers over 50 unique tile designs on tiles made from 65-100% recycled materials.
