Pinwheel Tile

Pinwheel Tile for Stylish & High-Performance Design

At Apollo Tile, we have the perfect pinwheel tile for your home or commercial project. This striking pattern introduces vintage style to modern spaces. Available in porcelain, they can add visual interest to a country kitchen, a retro living room, or a farmhouse bathroom. Pinwheel tiles work as a catchy graphic flooring design as they do for wall and backsplash installations!

These 12x12-inch mesh-backed porcelain mosaics take their cue from basketweave tile pattern, bringing plenty of charm and character to any room you place them. Not only do they look great, they can be used everywhere: entryways, living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, patios, swimming pools, and beyond!

Versatile Pinwheel Floor Tile for Every Style

If you’re looking for something unusual, our pinwheel tile offerings are your best bet! They can recreate a historical Mid-Century look or bring a touch of Art Deco elegance to your space. Ideal for high-traffic and wet areas, porcelain tile provides resilience to daily wear and tear and harsh weather while ensuring minimal upkeep.

The options in the pinwheel tile collection mimic the look of natural stone—showcasing a robust composition that is easy to live with. They are finished with a matte glaze that delivers a more refined and understated look. What you’ll especially love about matte tile is how better it conceals dirt, smudges, and scratches, doing away with frequent cleaning. The rough, non-shiny surface, together with increased grout lines, provides good grip and secure footing in bathrooms and around pools.

We have black, blue, white, pink, and green tile colors in this range. The different mosaics coordinate well with large format sizes of the same style. For instance, Splendor 11.81 in. x 11.81 in. Matte Black Porcelain Mosaic Wall and Floor Tile with Splendor 24 in. x 48 in. Lappato Black Porcelain Rectangular Wall and Floor Tile.

Black tile is dramatic and regal, and can be used to pull a large room in to make it feel intimate and cozy. If you’re after something playful and exciting, consider the Splendor 11.81 in. x 11.81 in. Matte Pink Porcelain Mosaic Wall and Floor Tile. It achieves a clean look paired with crisp white and rose gold, but can be equally enriching with charcoal gray fittings.

Green and blue tile draw inspiration from the natural world around us. They are considered coastal colors but can be just as contemporary depending on how you introduce them into your space. Our Splendor 11.81 in. x 11.81 in. Matte Green Porcelain Mosaic Wall and Floor Tile adds a fresh, organic feel to the room—while Splendor 11.81 in. x 11.81 in. Matte Blue Porcelain Mosaic Wall and Floor Tile sits comfortably in a Mediterranean-inspired scheme.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a pinwheel tile shape?

Like basketweave, this statement mosaic features a rectangular 1x2-inch tile chip rotating around a 1-inch square chip to form an interwoven pattern.

2. Which pinwheel mosaic tile color works with white kitchen cabinets?

All the pinwheel tile colors we have work seamlessly with white cabinets. If you aim for that sought-after all-white kitchen, pair with Splendor 11.81 in. x 11.81 in. Matte White Porcelain Mosaic Wall and Floor Tile, and bring in gold or copper hardware and accents to warm things up!

3. Can I pair pinwheel tiles with a different tiling material or pattern?

Definitely! Pinwheel floor tile can team with a honeycomb or subway backsplash. A pinwheel wall design can work just as well with flooring tile that looks like wood.

4. Can I use these patterned tiles for bathroom shower floors?

They are approved for all applications, including shower floors. The increased grout lines provide sufficient traction underfoot in wet areas.

5. Can I use the same pinwheel floor tile on my walls?

Our pinwheel tiles can be used on floors or walls of the same room for greater visual impact and interesting movement. We’d advise accenting a single wall to prevent the pattern from overwhelming the room. However, if you’re set on going all out, an all-over effect works wonders in powder rooms and laundry rooms.

6. Can I install a pinwheel tile floor myself or do I need a professional?

The tiles come with a mesh backing, which makes DIY easy and quick. However, we advise consulting a professional installer to achieve a polished look, especially when working with such an intricate pattern.
