Hexagon Tiles & Hexagon Mosaic: Modern & Versatile
Hexagon tiles are one of the strongest design trends in interior design: the hexagonal shape – also known as six-sided tiles – breaks up the classic grid layout and gives floors and walls a lively, almost graphic structure. In Switzerland, more and more architects, planners and private individuals are choosing hexagon tiles to give bathrooms, kitchens and living areas an individual character. Whether as a delicate hexagon mosaic in the shower area or as a large-format hexagon floor tile in the living room – at Die Fliesen Galerie you'll find a wide selection of formats, materials and colours for every project.
Hexagon Tiles by Material & Size
For the hexagon shape to have its full effect, the right combination of size and material is essential. That's why we've organised our hexagon collection into clear categories.
Small Hexagon Mosaics
Small-format hexagon mosaics are ideal for shower niches, washbasin splashbacks and other areas with many corners and edges. The fine-grained structure creates a delicate look and, thanks to mesh backing, is particularly easy to install.
Large Hexagon Floor Tiles
Large hexagon floor tiles look calmer and more elegant than small mosaics and are ideal for living rooms, hallways or spacious bathroom areas. Fewer grout lines also mean less cleaning effort in everyday life.
Glass, Ceramic, Porcelain Stoneware & Marble
Our hexagon tiles are available in glass for shimmering accents, in robust ceramic for a classic look, in low-maintenance porcelain stoneware for heavily used areas, and in elegant marble-look for a high-quality, natural appearance.
Where Hexagon Tiles Work Best
Hexagon tiles are versatile and adapt to a wide range of room situations:
- Bathroom: Hexagon tiles in the bathroom set accents on the floor, wall or in the shower and turn the bathroom into an individual feel-good space.
- Kitchen Splashback: Hexagon tiles in the kitchen serve as an eye-catching, modern splashback behind the hob or sink that is easy to clean and heat-resistant.
- Floor: As a continuous hexagon floor, a calm yet exciting surface is created with a distinctive recognition value.
- Accent Areas: Individual wall niches, fireplace surrounds or counter cladding benefit from the hexagon shape as a design highlight.
- Transition from Wood to Tile: Hexagon mosaics are particularly well suited to creating a flowing, decorative transition between parquet and tiled floors.
Colours & Patterns
The hexagon shape also offers plenty of scope in terms of colour. Popular options include:
- Solid colours for an understated, elegant look, for example as continuous floor tiles throughout the living area.
- Marble look for a luxurious ambience, ideally combined with high-quality bathroom tiles.
- Two-tone patterns, in which two colour shades are laid alternately to create a graphic overall look.
- Colour gradients from light to dark for a flowing, dynamic effect – particularly striking combined with our mosaic tiles.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hexagon Tiles
Are hexagon tiles difficult to install?
Small hexagon mosaics usually come pre-mounted on mesh sheets, making them just as easy to install as classic mosaic tiles. Larger hexagon floor tiles require a bit more care when cutting around walls and corners, but are easy to handle for experienced installers.
What size hexagon tiles for the bathroom?
Small-format hexagon mosaics are ideal for small areas such as shower niches, while spacious bathroom floors and walls benefit from larger hexagon tiles, since fewer grout lines are created and cleaning is easier.
Hexagon tiles on the floor or on the wall?
Hexagon tiles can be laid both on the floor and on the wall. It's important that floor tiles have the appropriate slip resistance. Many customers combine both areas for a seamless overall look.
Do hexagon tiles suit small rooms?
Yes. Especially in small bathrooms or guest toilets, the hexagon shape creates visual depth and draws the eye without overloading the space. Light colour tones and smaller formats reinforce this effect even further.
