Gone are the days when tiles were cold and clinical. Today’s beauties are bursting with pattern and colour, and according to the experts at independent tile retailer Porcelain Superstore, they can even be used to make homes feel warmer as the seasons change and temperatures dip.

Abbas Youssefi, Managing Director of Porcelain Superstore, said: “Colour can have a huge impact on how our homes feel. Choosing homewares in the right shades can give homes a more cosy and inviting impression.” As winter looms, Abbas outlines his top shades that are ideal for taking the chill out of kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces this winter.
