Ceramic Tile Design Ideas — Portuguese

Portuguese Oporto are used as a backsplash in this kitchen, and provide the perfect complement to the blue field tile countertop. The rich blue, green and red tones in the Oporto add warmth to the kitchen, while the intricate, hand-painted design adds interest to the area.

Portuguese Oporto in a six-inch format and framed with 3x6 border tiles are used as a backsplash in this kitchen and wall design for the bar. Using tile as a wall accent is a great way to extend your design vision past countertops and backsplash. The vibrant Oporto tiles make a bold statement against the blue tile border of this kitchen bar wall.

The Portugese Braganza 3" x 6" are hand painted with vivid blue, green and yellow hues and are guaranteed to brighten up any space. Used here on a kitchen bar, the leaf design on the tile creates a simple elegance.  The smaller tiles placed on the diagonal add visual appeal.

Mix the traditional sensibilities of yesterday with colorful field tile to create a unique and custom look. The colorful Portuguese Braganza tiles were placed in a row on the diagonal to create a striking backspalsh for this bathroom vanity. A unique contemporary look was achieved by mixing Old World Style on a neutral background with occasional bright colors of solid field tile to complement the Braganza colors.
