Tile of Spain Announces Winners of the 16th Annual Tile of Spain Awards

Miami, Fla. -- Tile of Spain, the association of over 100 Spanish tile manufacturers, recently announced the winners of the 16th annual Tile of Spain Awards of Architecture and Interior Design. The panel of judges, chaired by architect Iñaki Ábalos, met on in November in Castellón, Spain, to decide the winners.

The Tile of Spain Awards promote the use of Spanish ceramic tiles in architecture and interior design projects both in Spain and abroad. They are sponsored by Endesa, Vodafone, Valencia Port Authority and CESCE. The Tile of Spain Awards offer cash prizes and are divided into three areas. The two main categories, Architecture and Interior Design, each have a cash prize of €17,000 ($20, 000). Special mentions may also be made in both categories, based on the judges' criteria. The third category, the Final Degree Project, targets students of architecture and has a cash prize of €5,000 (~$5,900). In all three categories, entries are welcome from both Spanish and international participants. Fifteen years after their launch, this latest edition presents a revamped corporate identity featuring a more contemporary image in line with current design trends.
