If you have a compact Bengaluru apartment, avoid small, busy patterns on your main floors as they tend to clutter the room. Instead, use larger 1200x600mm format tiles to create a seamless, open look, and reserve the intricate 200x200mm Moroccan or designer tiles for specific accent walls or bathroom niches where they can really pop. ### Myths vs. Reality Many people hesitate to use matte tiles because they believe they are harder to clean than glossy ones. That is a myth. Our non-absorbent matte tiles are actually very easy to maintain and offer better grip. Similarly, you don't need to break the bank to get a designer look. By mixing premium accent pieces with cost-effective base tiles, you can achieve a high-end finish while staying within your budget. ### Budgeting for Your Project When finalizing your tiles, remember that the price per square foot is only part of the story. Always set aside an extra ₹40 to ₹60 per sq.ft. for installation labor, as professionals require specific materials like epoxy grout and spacers. Also, when ordering, please factor in a 10% to 15% wastage buffer—this is essential for small-format tiles that require complex cutting for corners or pipes. ### Why Design Advice Matters Tiles are the most permanent thing you will add to your home, so getting the technical details right is crucial. Our team isn't just here to hand you a catalog; we can help you with: * **Traffic Mapping:** Deciding where to use high-strength porcelain vs. decorative ceramic. * **Color Harmony:** Understanding how different finishes—from pro-carving to glossy—reflect light in your specific room. * **Installation Planning:** Determining if your service elevator can handle 8x4 feet large-format slabs before you buy. Whether you are a homeowner DIY-ing a bathroom update or an architect working on a commercial site, we ensure you have the technical knowledge to back up your aesthetic choices. ## About Trove At Trove, we've spent two decades curating 16,000 designs to help you find that one piece that feels like it belongs in your home.
