Ask some interior designers, and they may tell you that the white-on-white kitchen isn't burning quite as brightly as it once did. But as kitchen trends continue to circulate and the heat goes up and down on the looks du jour, one thing that will never overstay its welcome is stunning white kitchen tile.

The simple truth is that a white tile makeover is always a classic. It never goes out of style, and it provides a fresh, elevated, clean, and versatile backdrop for a range of interchangeable colors, trends, and aesthetic preferences.

Get inspired by these seven kitchen transformations that put multiple variations of our white tiles to the test—and proved themselves to be nothing short of "chef's kiss."

We love how At Home with Astra elevated her kitchen with a fresh and gorgeous new take on farmhouse chic using our 2"x6" Zellige Snow tile, providing a soft-white radiance. This traditional handcrafted Moroccan tile is a perfectly subtle yet standout backsplash that resonates with this space's sleek, rustic charm. When paired with brushed-gold fixtures, warm wood accents, and the decorative tin-inspired ceiling treatment, it fits right in.

Pro tip: Taking the tile all the way to the ceiling brings a beautiful consistency of form on the walls without cabinetry.

Our Casablanca Carrara marble is the epitome of timeless beauty, characterized by a pristine white base and subtle grey veining. No two slabs are exactly alike! The marble's sleek and clean look makes it a versatile and chic option for any home—and this kitchen from The Lived In Look is no exception.

This backsplash, featuring the Casablanca Carrara Marble 3"x6" subway tile, gives this kitchen a timelessness only marble can provide. Plus, we love how it complements and echoes the rest of the kitchen's on-trend palette, with the warm wood tones and the unique taupe-meets-grey cabinetry.

Although subway tile is undoubtedly having a moment, if there was ever a celebration of being square, it's here in this kitchen from MIF Design & Construction

Our Snow 4"x4" Zellige is featured as the backsplash—and it looks positively luminous in the dreamy natural light. Its polished radiance is a natural fit for the glam of the space, where the gold hardware and accents are the jewelry against the expanse of white cabinetry and range hood.

This kitchen from Stacey Suttie Design channels its own glam tranquility—and shows off how chic it can be to mix metals. A touch of gold hardware is a perfect match with stainless steel appliances. Of course, we're partial to how our Snow 2"x6" Zellige tile provides a crisp palette for all those metals to shine.

Subway tile, but make it vertical!  Where we more traditionally see our Snow 2"x6" Zellige tile installed horizontally, we can't get over the cool factor of this kitchen from Wild Hearts Home that reorients this tile for a head-turning effect. 

Not only is it gorgeous, but it's also strategic. Notice how the vertical tiles, taken all the way to the ceiling, visually expand the height of the kitchen and make the space look even larger.

Look closely at this backsplash from Kaylee Burks, and you'll see a little something extra-sassy with our Natural White 2"x6" Zellige tile. Amidst the horizontal installation, a classic vertical stack gives the overall pattern a subtle yet statement-making effect. 

It's just another way to add some personalization to your kitchen—plus, it's a swoon-worthy distinction that will never go out of style.

We have all the heart eyes for Jaci Daily's caffeine fix that has way more zip than that drive-through at the corner. A bit warmer in tone than the Snow Zellige, our Natural White 4"x4" Zellige tile is a cozy background for this in-home coffee bar styled to perfection with coffee mugs and collected accouterment.
