Capri Blue Tile 4x12 or Capri Blue Honed Subway Tile 2x6?
Capri Blue Tile 4x12 and Capri Blue Honed Subway Tile 2x6 are easy to confuse on a sample board: they share the same collection, color listing and finish. What separates them:

What to put next to it
Built from the color we measured off Capri Blue Tile 4x12 itself, not from its name.
Read off its own swatch, Capri Blue Tile 4x12 measures #E4DEDA: very light, essentially neutral. We match that to Cream / Antique White and build the pairings from there. Close enough to neutral that the cabinets get to make the decisions; this will follow them.
Cabinets
- Sage Green — muted green loves creamy warmth. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials solid
Countertop
- Green / Dramatic Veined Stone — dramatic green stone over quiet cream boxes. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element current
Island
- Walnut — Cream perimeter cabinets let a walnut island play the furniture piece, and cream forgives the slow amber shift walnut takes on in a sunny room.. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element classic
Backsplash
- Terracotta / Clay — Cream cabinets give terracotta tile room to glow instead of shout — the pairing ages like a Marseille farmhouse, better every year the glaze crazes.. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials current
Steer away from
- Pure White — cream next to pure white makes the cream look dirty — pick one white family
