National Trust Tiles Collection

The National Trust Tiles Collection is a beautifully designed tile range created in collaboration with the National Trust, drawing inspiration from historic buildings, country homes, and natural landscapes under its care. At Hyperion Tiles, we are proud to offer this timeless and carefully curated collection that blends heritage with contemporary style. Each design reflects Britain’s rich architectural history and celebrates traditional craftsmanship while still being suitable for modern interiors. Whether it's a rustic texture taken from a country cottage floor or a delicate decorative motif found in a grand estate hallway, the collection tells a story of the past through every tile. The range includes both floor and wall tiles and often features muted tones and tactile finishes that echo classic interiors. These tiles are ideal for period homes or for anyone wanting to introduce a sense of understated heritage and character into their home décor without compromising on quality or performance.

Yes, National Trust tiles are perfectly suited to modern homes, especially for those who appreciate traditional design details with a timeless quality. At Hyperion Tiles, we frequently work with homeowners who want to introduce heritage charm into new-build properties or contemporary interiors. The collection is versatile and offers a range of neutral tones and elegant patterns that can enhance both minimalist and more decorative schemes. Whether you’re adding subtle character to a sleek kitchen or bringing warmth and texture to a modern bathroom, National Trust tiles create a welcoming and lived-in feel. The mix of handcrafted textures and soft earthy colours pairs beautifully with wood finishes, painted cabinetry and stone worktops. They also work particularly well in boot rooms, utility areas and hallways where traditional styling feels at home. Even in a modern setting, these tiles offer a depth and history that adds real visual interest and timeless appeal.

National Trust tiles are incredibly versatile and can be used in a wide range of spaces throughout the home. At Hyperion Tiles, we often recommend them for kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, utility rooms and even garden rooms or porches. Their subtle textures and traditional tones are ideal for walls, splashbacks and floors, bringing a rustic elegance and authenticity to every surface. In kitchens, they look stunning behind an Aga or as a feature wall behind open shelving. In bathrooms, their soft colours and handcrafted appearance help create a peaceful, spa-like retreat. Many designs are frost-resistant and durable enough for entranceways or outdoor use in sheltered areas. Whether you want to restore character to an older property or add charm to a modern home, these tiles offer a perfect solution. They are particularly well-suited to country-style interiors, period renovations or homes with a love for nature-inspired and heritage aesthetics.

National Trust tiles are designed to be practical and durable, but like many traditionally inspired or handmade-look tiles, they benefit from some considered care to maintain their best appearance. At Hyperion Tiles, we recommend sealing certain ranges depending on the tile material and finish, particularly if the surface is porous or unglazed. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions, and if you're unsure, we're happy to offer guidance based on the specific product. Regular cleaning with a pH-neutral cleaner will help preserve the tile’s surface without causing damage or discolouration. Avoid abrasive cleaning tools and strong chemical products, especially on patterned or textured tiles. These tiles are made to last and age gracefully, often developing more character over time. When used on floors, especially in high-traffic areas, we suggest using protective pads under furniture and rugs in walkways. With a little care, National Trust tiles will continue to look beautiful for years to come.

Yes, the designs in the National Trust Tiles Collection are authentically inspired by real historical interiors and architectural details found in National Trust properties across the UK. At Hyperion Tiles, we value the integrity and thoughtful craftsmanship that goes into each design, many of which are based on tile fragments, decorative floors and original materials discovered in manor houses, estates and rural cottages. The patterns are carefully adapted to suit contemporary homes while preserving the spirit of their origins. Colours are often drawn from natural pigments and traditional paints, ensuring a timeless palette that complements a wide range of décor styles. Every tile in the collection pays homage to Britain’s decorative heritage, celebrating the textures, tones and craftsmanship of the past. Whether it’s a faded encaustic pattern or a weathered limestone look, these designs carry a story, helping to bring heritage into the heart of your home in an understated and elegant way.

Yes, many tiles in the National Trust collection are created with sustainability and ethical production in mind, aligning with the National Trust’s wider environmental values.
