In an interior, the perception of space depends not only on square metres, but also on how the eye perceives lines and surfaces. Small tiles involve a large number of floor joints, creating a grid effect that fragments the space, giving the impression of a smaller and more cluttered room. Furthermore, over time the grout lines tend to turn grey, making them difficult to clean and consequently unattractive. Large tiles can completely transform the atmosphere of a home. By visually reducing the presence of joints, the floor takes on the effect of a more continuous, elegant and fluid surface, giving a greater feeling of spaciousness.
Here are some examples of rooms with large format tiles:
1.Room with large tiles in a minimalist style
The minimalist style is characterised by a neutral colour palette and large size tiles in colours such as grey, white and beige, with few joints and minimal contrast, which bring brightness to the environment. To further amplify the space, it is important to maintain colour continuity throughout the room to make the joints almost completely invisible, allowing them to blend in with the surface. In a minimalist setting, large format tiles reinforce the simplicity of the design.
Novoceram offers the Otto collection for a perfect minimalist style.
2.Room with large tiles in a luxurious style
Large-format marble-effect tiles with a polished finish are perfect for giving your home a luxurious style. In this case, the floor becomes almost a scenic element, particularly popular in bathrooms and living rooms. This effect is achieved not by eliminating marks, but by the continuity of the marble veins that mask the joints. In this setting, large format tiles enhance the design of the material and reinforce its aesthetic impact. The eye is guided by the continuity of the design and does not concentrate on the edges.

3.Room with large tiles in an industrial style
The large-format concrete-effect tiles chosen to represent the industrial style create the illusion of a floor created from a single pour, where the joints are almost imperceptible. Rooms decorated in this style appear more spacious because the overall effect is structurally compact and does not give the impression of having been assembled.
The concrete effect is featured in several Novoceram collections, such as Fast and Matic.
4.Room with large tiles in a rustic style
If you want a rustic style with more intense and deeper colours, large-format stone-effect tiles, such as 80×80 and 60×90, faithfully reproduce the texture of natural stone, giving a feeling of spaciousness thanks to the joints that blend naturally with the material. Here, the large format tiles fully express the aesthetic potential of the material, making it the protagonist of the space.
We recommend Château a collection that is perfect for emulating the stone effect in your home.
5. Room with large tiles in a Scandinavian style
Scandinavian style is a typical Nordic style characterised by a minimalist and comfortable approach. The main colours are white and beige, to bring brightness even in the months when light is scarce in Nordic countries. Here too, it is not the absence of joints that works, but their regularity. In fact, the space appears larger because of the large-format wood-effect flooring.Thanks to the large size tiles, the room appears more orderly and consistent.

6. Room with large tiles in a shabby chic style
The shabby chic style is an intentionally distressed style in which light colours prevail, giving the room a great sense of brightness, which, combined with 120×120 tiles, allows the space to be optically enlarged.
Novoceram offers collections such as Teranga available in this XXL format.
7. Room with large tiles in a contemporary style
Simplicity, balance and attention to aesthetics are the main characteristics of a contemporary style that is constantly evolving. The choice of large-format travertine-effect flooring allows you to reflect every feature of this style. These large slabs are crossed by continuous linear veins without sharp visual contrasts that break up any sense of boundaries.Large format tiles help define the style of the room in an essential and contemporary way.

Large format tiles allow each material to express itself fully, enhancing textures, veins and colour variations without unnecessary visual interruptions. Large tiles are no longer just a functional base, but a design surface that interacts with the architecture and furnishings, helping to create coherent and refined settings. In this way, large format tiles become the common thread of the house, designed to give continuity to the project and transform every space into a harmonious, contemporary and timeless atmosphere, where large tiles represent the meeting point between aesthetics, design and architecture, minimising visual interruptions and adapting naturally to different styles,from minimalist to shabby chic,creating a greater sense of space.
