Green tile is currently trending — and we’re not just talking about the fact that ceramic tile is environmentally friendly.
From mint greens to muted greens, and from patterned greens to green marble looks, green tile is a great way to add both unique personality and biophilic design to your home.
Not sure where to start? We have green tile ideas galore for you to explore.
Light Green Tile
Whether sea green or mint green is more your style, light green tile adds a calming presence to any room.
Sea green tile is a great choice for beach house or coastal decor (or to pair with colorful terrazzo-look tile, such as in the photo above). A more mint tint strikes a vintage note with a serene influence.

Bright Green Tile
Instill energy in your home with bright green tile. Bright shades especially bring interest into compact spaces. Use ceramic tile for areas that benefit from tile’s extra durability, such as the front of a kitchen island or bar, and also add a unique design feature to your home.

Subdued Green Tile
While bright and vibrant shades of green tile can create a statement in your home, green can also serve as a “new neutral” — a refreshing approach to neutral tones.
The subdued green tile above is a great example of how you can add a touch of color to your space while still creating a neutral backdrop.

Patterned Green Tile
Green brings vibrancy to any ceramic tile pattern.
These patterned tile examples showcase a breadth of pattern styles available in ceramic tile — a reptilian-looking tile with a moody-yet-glamorous jungle vibe and a green diamond pattern that captures the spirit of a garden on a spring morning.

Variegated Green Tile
Variegated tile is a tile design that employs color shading — from subtle to more dramatic — that when paired with green tile gives a handmade look evoking Earth’s variegated colors of life.
Which do you prefer — the slightly variegated forest green tile, or the more differentiated variegation of the blue-green tile?
Green Tile in Fun Shapes
Ceramic tile comes in all the different shades of green found in nature (and maybe some Mother Earth hasn’t thought of yet) as well as a huge range of shapes—so you can create outside the box with an outside vibe.
This kitchen proves that creative green tile shapes are the perfect choice for a backsplash. We’re also willing to bet that original tile designs inspire creative cooking endeavors.
