A
longside years of tradition, knowledge, and experience, Tile of
Spain ceramic products are present in over 180 countries
worldwide. Spain is the number-one exporter of ceramic tiles
in Europe and number two in the world, positioning itself as one of the
principal world powers in the manufacturing and exporting of tile.
Here we look at tile trends from Tile of Spain companies presented
at Cersaie 2017 and inspired by the latest in decorating and design–
iridescent accents, classic elegance, new volumes, handmade
inspiration, fusion and freshness, and style and simplicity.
TILE TRENDS APPEARING AT CERSAIE 2017:
IRIDESCENT ACCENTS: Small mosaic pieces become more
sophisticated with bright colors that are reminiscent of the
metallic hues from the 1990s. Reinvented for today's décor, the
reflection of light, as seen in the Passport Décor series by
Togama, adds brightness to the space while the small size
creates an ambiance of coziness and splendor.

CLASSIC ELEGANCE: A comeback to the classic tile style in the
palaces and buildings of the 17th century, ceramic pieces are
presented in monochromatic hues of green, rose, and blue with
reliefs that imitate natural motifs. With its chromatic spectrum
and decorative lines, as seen in the Earth series by Adex, there
is a fierce comeback to this traditional style that has made these
classic pieces irreplaceable.

NEW VOLUMES: New dimensions in wall décor create attention
grabbing, yet sophisticated patterns that are infused with
vitality. Blending color with three-dimensional pieces has
become the new trend for minimalist spaces. The details in the
design and installation, as seen in the Tour series by Bellavista,
turn walls into works of art.
