It can be hard to decide which layout to go for when you’re tiling your walls or floor, but one that’s popular right now is the stack bond. By laying tiles on top of each other, you’ll create a pattern that looks both neat and striking, it’s a non-typical idea to go for as we usually see different patterns. Stacked tiles in the kitchen will make it look more polished, refined and elegant, even if you rock industrial style.
A stacked tile backsplash is a nice solution for many styles: mid-century modern, contemporary, minimalist, Scandinavian, industrial, farmhouse and others. You may go for a sleek look with matching grout or with contrasting for highlighting your decor and the pattern that is an accent itself. The tiles themselves can be different: subway, skinny ones, large scale square ones and many others, so you’ll easily find an option that suits your vision. The color is also up to you, there are all kinds of shades and you may also go for wood-inspired or marble tiles for more interest. Make a bold touch in the space with contrasting tiles or go for matching ones for a serene feel. If you have rectangular tiles, you may clad them vertically or horizontally, and these looks will be very different.

How to make your stacked backsplash look more interesting and outstanding?
