What sizes do floor tiles come in? The most common sizes in Indonesia are 25x25, 30x30, 40x40, 50x50, 60x60, and 80x80 cm. Small sizes are usually used in bathrooms and terraces, while 40x40 and larger are common in living rooms, bedrooms, and commercial areas.

There's no single size that's right for every room. The key is to match the tile size to the room's dimensions, interior concept, and function. The right size keeps the room proportional while reducing leftover cut pieces. Here's the guide.

A Floor Tile Size Guide for Every Room

80x80 Tiles for Main Rooms and Large Commercial Areas

80x80 is the largest floor tile size in the Platinum collection. It has the fewest grout lines, so the floor looks spacious and premium. This size is ideal for large living rooms, lobbies, showrooms, and commercial spaces.

One option is Poland Grey, an 80x80 white body glossy tile with a finely veined white marble pattern. Poland comes in two faces (Face A and Face B) that can be laid in a bookmatch pattern, so the veins connect like a large marble slab.

60x60 Tiles for Modern Living Rooms and Bedrooms

60x60 is a balanced choice for modern homes. It still looks spacious but is more flexible for medium-sized rooms such as living rooms, bedrooms, and family rooms. A box of Platinum 60x60 tiles contains 4 pieces, covering about 1.44 m².

For a soft, modern look, choose Scandinavia Cream, a 60x60 rectified glossy tile with a subtle marble pattern on a light cream base. Its precise rectified edges allow thinner grout lines for a more seamless floor.

50x50 Rectified Tiles for Family Rooms and Multifunctional Areas

50x50 rectified tiles suit family rooms, kitchens, and multifunctional areas. The size isn't too large, while rectified edges keep the installation neat and precise.

We recommend Laxon Cream, a 50x50 rectified matt tile in plain cream. Laxon is part of the SUPERSTOP series with an R12 slip resistance rating, so it can also be used in areas often exposed to water, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Disclaimer: SUPERSTOP helps reduce the risk of slipping with a special material that activates when exposed to water, based on Pendulum Test Value (PTV) results at R12. Please stay careful when the floor is wet or slippery from soap or oil.

40x40 Tiles for Flexible Use Around the Home

40x40 is one of the most flexible sizes. It suits homes with small to medium rooms, from bedrooms and home offices to terraces.

Amazon Brown is a 40x40 matt tile with a brown wood pattern. It looks warm and natural, perfect for bedrooms or Japandi-style lounges.

Why Should Floor Tile Size Match the Room?

It Affects the Room's Visual Appearance

Tile size determines how many grout lines you see. Large tiles look clean and modern, while small tiles give a more detailed, textured feel.

It Helps Create a Spacious or Proportional Look

Large tiles generally make rooms look bigger. However, tiles that are too large for a small room can create many cut pieces along the edges, making the proportions look off.

It Influences the Installation Pattern

Tile size also affects installation patterns such as straight, diagonal, endmatch, or bookmatch. Patterns like bookmatch stand out more on large tiles.

Tips for Choosing a Tile Size That Makes Rooms Look Better

Match the Size to the Room

For large rooms, choose 60x60 or 80x80. For medium rooms, 50x50 or 60x60 is enough. For small areas like bathrooms, 25x25 or 30x30 makes it easier to create floor slopes.

Consider Your Interior Concept

Modern minimalist concepts pair well with large plain or marble tiles. Natural or classic concepts can use medium sizes with wood or stone patterns.

Pay Attention to Grout Lines

Fewer grout lines mean a more seamless look. Rectified tiles can be installed with grout lines as thin as 2 mm, while non-rectified tiles need at least 3 mm.

Match the Tile to the Room's Activity

Wet areas need matt or slip-resistant tiles. High-traffic areas need floor tiles with good abrasion resistance.

FAQ

What is a good floor tile size for a living room?

60x60 is the most common choice for living rooms because it makes the space feel open. For large living rooms, 80x80 gives a more premium look.

Are 80x80 tiles suitable for homes?

Yes, especially for living rooms, family rooms, or large open spaces. For small rooms, a smaller size is better to avoid too many cut pieces.

What is the difference between 50x50 rectified tiles and other sizes?

Rectified tiles are precisely cut on every side, so their size is more uniform and they can be installed with thinner grout lines. As a result, the floor looks neater and more seamless than with non-rectified tiles.
