Experimenting with interior design trends is exciting, but it can also be risky. After all, this isn’t personal fashion we’re talking about. You can always ditch a hat or a pair of shoes if you make a bad choice at the store, but with household design, the potential for permanence limits your options. You best get it right the first time, or you’ll either be stuck with a look you don’t love for years, or you’ll pay a lot to fix your mistake.<\/span><\/div>\n

Given the risks associated with trend-setting designs, it’s easy to see why so many play it safe with simple looks. From white subway tile to neutral, large-format floor tiles, a few tried and true options have proven to hold up over time. The downside? So many opt for these ‘safe’ designs to the point that they lack personality.

Sometimes, it merely takes a few small details to see a familiar look in a whole new light.
