The checkerboard pattern has appeared continuously in architecture and interiors for over 400 years. What separates a great checkerboard installation from a flat one is the depth and natural variation in the stone itself. This collection is built around genuine marble and travertine — not ceramic or porcelain imitations.
Shop by Combination
Maximum contrast: Thassos White and Nero Marquina — pure Greek white against Spanish jet black. Available in 12x12, 18x18, and 24x24 in polished and honed. Calacatta Gold and Nero Marquina adds warmth without reducing contrast. Bianco Carrara and Nero Marquina offers a softer, cooler alternative.
Tonal white and gray: Thassos White and Bardiglio Imperiale, Bianco Dolomite and Bardiglio Nuvolato. High enough contrast to read clearly, subtle enough to work across interior styles.
Warm earth: Crema Marfil and Emperador Dark — warm Spanish beige against rich chocolate brown. Available in 4x4 (tumbled) through 12x12 (polished/honed).
Travertine: Ivory and Noce Travertine — earthy, warm, suited to floors where a softer palette is preferred. Available in 4x4 through 24x24.
Distinctive: Calacatta Gold and Ming Green, Rosso Laguna and Nero Marquina, Vanilla Onyx and Rojo Alicante, and others.
Choose Your Size
4x4 for powder rooms and small bathrooms (select combinations only). 6x6 for bathrooms and smaller entries. 12x12 for most residential rooms. 18x18 for larger floors. 24x24 for significant floor areas — requires careful layout planning.
Checkerboard Bathrooms
All 70+ SKUs include Bathroom Floor, Bathroom Wall, and Shower Wall in their Tile Use specification. Honed and tumbled finishes are the practical choice for wet bathroom floors — verify polished finish slip suitability per SKU. In small bathrooms, 4x4 or 6x6 in a high-contrast combination creates maximum impact.
Grout and Layout
Grout color significantly affects appearance. White grout emphasizes the grid; mid-gray softens transitions; black grout creates a graphic result. Start from center and ensure symmetrical cuts. Order one sample for $7.95, or choose any 5 for $25, with free standard shipping on sample-only orders.
