Tile and grout color combinations.

White tile black or dark grout. Why not get creative. Dark grout in a similar tone to a dark tile will create a softer look while a light grout will bring out the tile pattern adding even more drama. If that s a little too bold take a look at brass copper or stainless steel metal.

Pick a brightly colored tile and neutral grout. Naturally this high contrast tile scheme is well suited to spaces in which black and white is the dominant look. Once you start to go very dark with your grout the grout itself and the patterns it creates start to become the visual focus over the actual tile. A dull orange is about as colorful as most grout will get.

Light or dark grout can work with most tile colors. If you like black tile but want to soften the look choose a charcoal shade for the tile and match it closely rather than choosing a pure black and trying to soften it with white.
