Episode 187 – Tile Trends With Tile Of Spain And Ryan Fasan

 

People often ask us how we start a project and where the inspiration for a design comes from. When designing kitchens and baths, the inspiration often comes from a tile that we have fallen in love with. Today we are going to talk all things tile with our guest Ryan Fasan, who is a Technical Consultant and Ceramic Tile Specialist with Tile of Spain. We are in good hands with Ryan today and excited to talk to him about the latest in tile trends in preparation for the upcoming Coverings Expo held in Atlanta in April, which we will both attend.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Green and blue tiles are still a fan favorite as the pandemic-driven trend of connectivity with nature remains hot. 

  2. Plan ahead during the construction/renovation phase when using large format tiles to avoid unnecessary cutting of tiles. 

  3. Did you know that beautiful textured and colorful patterns can be digitized on to tile?
