Simple bathroom tile patterns are often easier to clean than complicated designs.
Although complicated tile designs are popular for kitchens and patios, bathrooms look best with a simple design.

Patterns
Simple tile patterns make installation easier in a bathroom. When each tile has a unique design of its own, uncomplicated tile layouts still present a unique design. Lay out your tiles in a grid pattern for the easiest installation. Fill the cracks between tiles with a similarly colored grout. For a unique twist, lay out the tiles in a brick pattern. Alternate each row a few inches off center. This is an especially appealing pattern for stone-colored tile.
Colors
Solid-colored ceramic tiles add a simple and clean appearance to the floor of a bathroom. Choose one or two colors to keep the look simple. White and cream are popular because they brighten up a room. This is an especially good idea for smaller bathrooms that don't get a lot of light.

Tim Carter of Ask the Builder suggests that homeowners paint their bathroom tiles if they don't like the current design. Choose an oil-based paint in a color that works
