Characteristics of 2x16 Wall and Floor Tiles

The 2x16 tile size has become popular among interior designers and homeowners due to its versatility and aesthetic appeal. The length of the tile is much longer than the standard 3x6 subway tile. We have options that mimic the look of genuine Moroccan Zellige, showcasing a lustrous finish and unique color variation that creates movement and imparts a rich, artisanal feel across vertical surfaces. 

These ceramic wall and backsplash tiles reflect light, giving small rooms, such as the bathroom or kitchen, a spacious and more welcoming ambiance. They are ideal for creating a stylish look in both modern and traditional settings, giving a refined yet glamorous appeal to any space. Whether renovating an existing space or planning a new construction, Apollo Tile offers a well-curated selection of 2x16 tiles suited to a variety of environments and interior design styles.

The 2x16 tile is a unique twist on the traditional subway style, with an elongated rectangular shape that adds a sense of modernity to a room. These subway tile options can be oriented in a brick, herringbone, vertical, or horizontal layout, on the backsplash, wall, or fireplace surround.

Glossy tiles reflect lighting, making small kitchens and bathrooms appear brighter, open, and airy. In addition, they are easy to clean, making for an excellent choice in just about any room.

• Shapes

The rectangular shape of 2x16 tile is what defines its style. It has been used for decades, offering a classic look that’s always in vogue. In an elongated format, it adds a touch of modernity and can be placed creatively for a stunning kitchen backsplash, bathtub surround, shower walls, or fireplace surround.

  • Steam Rooms

A steam room requires materials that can withstand the warmth while at the same time creating a peaceful and relaxing environment. The 2x16 subway tile is a great option for this room since the glazed finish works well in the presence of warmth and does not change over time.

Outside the kitchen and bathroom, 2x16 tiles can be a great option for decorative design. Their long shape definitely catches the attention of anyone in the room. This tile can be a great option for a statement wall in the living room, a stylish entryway, a fireplace surround, or even a feature wall in commercial spaces.
