When one thinks of metal ceiling tiles, the first thing they think of is likely a grand atmosphere: something vintage, opulent, and elegant from top to bottom, perhaps with plush fabrics and richly colored tapestries. While metal ceiling tiles come in a wide variety of intricate designs, there are also just as many that take a more minimalist approach. Achieving a minimalist look with metal ceiling tiles gives you a way to incorporate staple statement pieces into a room without sacrificing the interior design aesthetic you’re really going for.

The Minimalist Look

A minimalist look starts with the design of metal ceiling tiles you choose. Some designs that are ideal for minimalist spaces are the following:

• #101 Classic Four Square – The #101 Classic Four Square design is perfect for any minimalist spaces. Comprised of simple geometric squares, it brings in the texture and the classic design of a metal ceiling tile without ever being too much.

• #106 Eccentric Mirror – The #106 Eccentric Mirror design is reminiscent of a photo frame: an evenly bordered square with a bit of texturing within the border limits. This simple and elegant choice of tile design brings just enough texture into your space without overwhelming its minimalist look.

• #107 Circular Heritage Wreath – A bit more intricate than the other minimalist designs is the #107 Circular Heritage Wreath. A wreath is placed in the center of a textured border square, giving you a touch of opulence that doesn’t overshadow the minimalist look you’re after. To tone down the Circular Heritage Wreath design, opt for a non-metallic finish.

The design you choose is only half the battle; next, you’ll have to consider your color or finish. Metallics, even in minimalist spaces, are extremely on-trend, but you don’t have to go metallic with your metal ceiling tiles if you don’t want to. For a minimalist space with an airy appeal, the Ivory, Glacier, Georgia, or Desert Sand color finishes may be what you’re looking for.
