This Gorgeous Home Décor Trend Will Dominate Pinterest

We adorn our walls with fresh coats of paint or statement wallpaper and draw our guests' gaze to the ceiling with bold lighting and intricate moldings, but when it comes to flooring, there's usually little room for creativity—or at least that's what we thought. Interior designers around the world are starting to embrace the trend dubbed "tile transitioning." Whether on the walls of a bathroom or the floor of an open-plan dining room, interlacing tiles with wooden floorboards is seriously show-stopping. Plus, according to experts, it's not as hard as you'd imagine to incorporate it in your next renovation.

Take a look at some of the best interiors that take statement floors to the next level—and find out how to do it yourself.

Looking to bookmark this for your next kitchen renovation?One of the key things to keep in mind when trying this trend at home is the type of materials. "We love the idea of tile bleeding into a softer material like wood," she says. The transition between hard and soft materials gives the space texture and clearly defines the two areas.

This trend is made for small homes. "I think this type of floor treatment is most appropriate in areas of transition, [like] entry areas, open baths, or even kitchens," says Zunino. Why? "It's a creative way to delineate space without a hard line."

Not sure which tiles to choose? 
Yes, there are endless color options of stone, ceramic, and concrete tiles, but there's a method to selecting the right style for your space. Firstly, consider the broader color palette of the room. This incredible converted silk factory in Spello, Italy, boasts minimal décor, so a smattering of hexagonal tiles in different shades of gray adds depth to the room.
