Select subway tiles

Using subway tiles is a bathroom design idea that can be applied to almost any project.

These rectangular ceramics first appeared in New York City\'s earliest subway station s،rtly after the turn of the 20th century and have since become an interior design staple thanks to their timelessness and affordability.
