Herringbone & Basketweave Subway Tile Patterns

If you love a feature wall or want to add visual texture to your space, these tile layouts offer more than just functionality – they make an impact. From Hamptons-inspired homes to Scandinavian and Coastal styles, herringbone and basketweave patterns add depth and interest in a range of interiors.

Herringbone

The herringbone lay has certainly become more popular over the past decade no matter the style. It is more commonly seen in a Hamptons or Farmhouse styled home where there are many features throughout the house, or in simple styles such as Coastal or Scandinavian to spruce up spaces. This pattern can be useful to add interesting texture if the chosen colour scheme is single toned, and tiles can even be doubled up to create the double herringbone pattern.

90 Degree Herringbone

Rather than the classic herringbone pattern, try turning it on a 90 degree angle which creates a step-like look. Not a soft looking pattern due to the harsh lines it creates, but certainly draws your attention.

Basketweave

The basketweave could be considered the underdog of tile laying patterns. Not as well known, but once word gets around could become a best seller. Like the herringbone, it provides stunning texture and visual interest to any space.
