Metro tiles
Brick-shaped metro tiles have been the most popular kitchen tile choice for at least a decade. Originally used on the underground (hence the name) the versatile little kitchen staple fits into most spaces so it requires very little cutting and can be fashioned into many mosaic forms such as herringbone (pictured).
There are simply dozens of colourways and finishes to choose from and these days different grout colours have given them a bit of a makeover, too.
