Classic and timeless, Spanish floor tiles are an exquisite design choice that will be stylish forever. Having adorned the floors of Spanish haciendas, basilicas, and walkways for centuries, Spanish tiles are making a comeback in the United States. Spanish revival styles have been re-adapted with contemporary tastes, resulting in tiles that balance the traditional and modern.
One of the most classic types of traditional Spanish floor tiles is a material that is common throughout the Mediterranean: terracotta. This gorgeous earthy substance is entirely natural and has been one of the top construction materials used around the world for thousands of years. Its reddish-brown tone instantly imbues rooms or exteriors with a natural atmosphere that recalls the rich warmth of the Mediterranean.
