Tile Ideas for your Home Office

Creating a home office can be a difficult task but, here at Roccia, we’ll help with a fantastic range of quality floor tiles to make your office space professional and comfortable.

The coronavirus has changed the way we live and work. Many people are adapting to remote working and, for some, this means converting the garage, transforming the spare room or building office space at the bottom of the garden to allow them to work from home.

Wherever you choose to create your home office, rest assured we have plenty of tiles options to fit your taste, personality and practical needs. In this blog, we’ll discuss the various benefits to the different types of floor tiles we have available, as well as on-trend styles, including large format, wood effect and ceramics.

A Practical Home Office Solution

Tiling your home office is a great idea as not only does it look professional, but it makes it hardwearing and easy to clean. Tiles are easy to install and perfect for underfloor heating to keep your feet warm during the colder months.

Another benefit to choosing a tiled floor for your home office is that they remain in excellent condition for years to come. We have many styles that will bring you a timeless aesthetic with scratch-resistant properties, suitable for office chairs with wheels or moveable desks.

Large Format Tiles 

Our large format tiles will fit seamlessly into your existing interior. They are the perfect choice for large and small rooms and, by having fewer grout lines, they give the illusion of space. You can also match your floor and wall tiles to create a coherent and professional look, distinguishing your work and home life.

The contemporary Dolphin tiles collection (pictured above) takes inspiration from natural materials and colours. Not only are these tiles textured for a rustic feel, but they are highly resistible to everyday general wear and tear, such as heavy foot traffic and heavy office furniture.

Ceramic Tiles 

Our ceramic floor tiles come in a vast range of colours, shapes and sizes, so you’ll have countless options for your new or existing home office. We have a large variety of different styles, including patterned, polished and matte finishes, so you can be sure they’ll never go out of fashion. Our solid tiles can even be mixed and matched in patterns or accented with your own custom designs or motifs.

The fine-grained tiles are created from high-grade ceramic clay to withstand the everyday rigours of frequent footfall. In particular, our range of polished tiles is ideal for home offices due to being formed through a method known as ‘dust pressing’. Due to their hard surface, the coating keeps the tile from absorbing any stains or dirt. 

Another benefit of ceramic floor tiles is that they are waterproof — making them resistant to moisture which can be a bonus if your home office is located at the bottom of your garden. The properties of ceramic tiles make them extremely tough to crack. They are durable enough to stand up to the wear and tear associated with day-to-day working life.

Porcelain Floor Tiles

When you opt for porcelain tiles in your home office, you can be sure they’re resilient and low maintenance. As a material, porcelain is dense, hard and resistant to staining, scratching and moisture absorption — a perfect solution for protecting your floor against scuffs, spills or marks. Porcelain tiles are a great, long-lasting choice for home offices and are available in a wide selection of finishes and designs.

Here at Roccia, we have porcelain tiles in many shapes and colours so, whether you fancy something unique or want to tie it in with your existing decor, we can help you choose something to match your specific taste.

Marble Effect 

Mable effect flooring is incredibly diverse — from contemporary to modern, we have marble effect tiles to suit your dream home office space. Many customers choose our marble effect tiles over genuine marble due to their lower prices and undetectable difference in quality — they can completely transform a room, instantly adding a bright, glossy sheen and natural texture that can make your space feel bigger.

A marble effect floor will make your home office feel grand and professional at a fraction of the price of real marble flooring. Our collection includes realistic patterns with a choice from both light and dark colours.

Wood Effect Tiles 

Our wood effect tiles will add a unique aesthetic to enhance your home office space. Not only do wood effect tiles come with a lower price tag than genuine wood flooring, but they are harder wearing and require less maintenance too! 

It’s worth noting that wood materials stimulate inspiration and well-being, so they are a great choice for those working within creative industries.
