We have a great display in our showroom featuring green/gray limestone tile with a grey grout. One of our customers decided to use an antique white grout so that each tile was more defined. What she didn’t expect was that the cream pieces in the listello she was using, would virtually disappear.
Take the time to consider how the color of your grout will influence the color of your tile and your decorative pieces. Grout color will “pull” its own color from your field tile. The cream color grout with green tiles gives the tile an overall look of a yellow-green while the buff grout gives it more of an “earthy” look.
When are comparing grout to the tile, notice how it changes the look of the listello. The Antique White gives a subtle definition to each of the pieces in the border, the cream color allows the dark brown pieces to “pop” and the buff grout softens the accent colors.
Don’t excessively worry yourself about your grout selection until you have selected all of your tile for your project. Allow your grout to enhance the beauty of your tile with subtle influence.
