The Netherlands buys tiles through large retail chains and online sellers, renovates canal houses, terraced homes and new-build estates with a clean, design-conscious eye, and uses Rotterdam to distribute across Belgium, Luxembourg and western Germany. Dutch kitchens and bathrooms favour geometry, pale stone and a touch of pattern.
