It's different and I love the colors.  It would be cheerful and bright for my dark basement area.

 

I am sick of boring neutrals.  My house needs colors to make me happy.

 

Those tiles would be really cool in a hair salon too.


@Carmie

I could totally see them in a tattoo parlour as well.  


 

Or in a 'Pop Art' gallery, but it wouldn't work in my home.

It may be "a" thing, but it's not my thing...

Re: Graffiti Tile: It's a "Thing"

@lolakimonoI just wanted to tell you that I always look forward to your posts. You find the most beautiful and interesting things to share.

I was wondering how Home Depot is selling Banksy tiles-I guess graffiti isn't copyrighted-but I wonder what he would think of this. I actually like the shower with the tiles in it. I think it is kind of different looking and more appealing to me than plain old subway tiles.

It might be a "thing" but it's not my "thing".

Re: Graffiti Tile: It's a "Thing"

@lolakimono I grew up in NYC & rode the subways every day while they were loaded with real grafitti.   It was horrible. Grafitti all over walls and buildings were also symbols of gangs and crimes.  These grafitti like tiles are absolutely nothing I find attractive.

I like it.  Not sure they'd fit in in my house though.

That's too much visual noise for me.

I don't hate it. Its colorful but I'm not ready to put any in my home any time soon.  I think the shower is cute.
