30 Beautiful White Subway Tile With Black Grout Designs

White Subway Tile Black Grout

White subway tile with black grout is a stunning look that provides a lot of contrast to make a statement in any space. It’s easy to see why white subway tiles with black grout are so popular. Not only is the contrast beautiful, but it’s also a timeless classic that adds character and warmth wherever it’s used. When we recently renovated our laundry room, we even considered using white subway tile!

From traditional kitchens and bathrooms to modern living rooms, white subway tiles with black grout will enhance any space in your home. And subway tile is often more affordable.

The traditional size subway tile is 3×6, but you can opt for longer rectangles to elongate the area and choose a glazed finish or matte white tile paired with dark grout. Black is always reliable: even better – it’s easy to clean, so you won’t have hassle trying to keep up its upkeep over time. Check out some eye-catching designs of white subway tile and black grouting that would make any room shine!
