A TRUE REPRESENTATION of quality and innovation worldwide, the Spanish tile industry was out in force at this year’s Cevisama, showcasing an incredible collection of new ceramic tile designs and techniques. Maria D Arráez, director of Tile of Spain UK, and Clara Vicedo, marketing and communications executive at the Spanish Ceramic Tile Manufacturers’ Association (ASCER), round up their top six trends spotted at this year’s show.
Earthy tones
‘Rich and warm, this year’s colour palette focuses on the earthy colours of the natural world. From olive and moss green to terracotta and clay, Spanish manufacturers have created a diverse selection of tile sizes, finishes and colours – from on-trend terrazzo to three-dimensional brick tiles and distressed large format floor tiles.’

‘Whether pairing slender linear tiles with square tiles in the same finish or incorporating a tile design that includes both a matt and gloss finish, mixing tiles together was certainly popular among Spanish manufacturers. Adding new dimension and structure to spaces, the diverse tile combinations, surfaces and designs naturally draw the eye in and beautifully catch the light in different ways.’
Textured
‘Spanish manufacturers are using new and innovative technology to optimise the latest printing and firing
techniques to bring incredible new possibilities for ceramics, echoing the tactile textures of natural materials like wood, limestone and marble. Tese new ceramic designs offer a strong material appeal that will pair with traditional and modern interiors alike.’
Distressed
‘From urban chic to modern farmhouse, distressed ceramic tiles were popular with a range of ceramic tile designs for floors and walls in a variety of finishes and colours. Distressed tiles lend an age of authenticity to décor, whilst offering the amenities of a modern ceramic tile.’
Fluted
‘Ceramics lend themselves beautifully to 3D reliefs and varied dimensions. Whether positioned vertically or horizontally, Spanish manufacturers are introducing a series of new fluted tile designs in a variety of finishes, colours and sizes. From larger panels and slabs to smaller, brick tiles, fluted tiles can now take on any form – whether wood-effect or three-dimensional.’
Large format
‘Large format tiles have seen an increase in popularity, particularly with commercial projects – not only for outdoor but indoor too. Replicating an array of materials, from concrete to marble, the versatile nature of ceramic and porcelain means customers have an incredibly broad range of matt, gloss and relief tiles to choose from.’
