The Spanish Ceramic Tile Manufacturer’s Association (ASCER) has officially opened the call for entries for the 25th edition of the Tile of Spain Awards in Architecture and Interior Design. The prestigious annual competition recognizes projects that showcase outstanding design, technical excellence and creativity using Spanish ceramic tile.
Celebrating design ingenuity and a deep appreciation for materiality, the Tile of Spain Awards recognize projects that highlight the creative and technical potential of ceramic tile. From bold architectural concepts and artistic interiors to innovative applications and expert craftsmanship, the awards spotlight the versatility of Spanish ceramics across a wide range of interior and exterior spaces. With the 2026 edition now accepting submissions, ASCER invites architects, interior designers, installers, students and industry professionals to submit completed projects for consideration in this internationally respected program.
The awards are presided over by an esteemed panel of judges, bringing together respected voices from architecture, interior design and the ceramic tile industry. Drawing on their collective expertise and experience, the judges assess each submission for creativity, originality and overall design excellence, while considering how effectively Spanish ceramic tile enhances the vision, functionality and character of each space. Together, the panel will evaluate entries based on design quality, innovation and the thoughtful integration of Spanish ceramic tile.
Entries must be submitted under one of two main categories, Architecture or Interior Design, with each further divided into two subcategories: projects using dry-pressed porcelain stoneware and projects using any of the following ceramic types: extruded porcelain stoneware, rustic stoneware, glazed stoneware, wall tiles, mosaic, terracotta and more.
A grand prize of €8,000 (approximately $9,000) will be awarded in each subcategory. In addition, the jury reserves the right to award up to two special mentions in each category to acknowledge outstanding achievements.
Project submissions are being accepted now through Oct. 22, 2026. For complete entry guidelines, project submissions, or more information about the Tile of Spain Awards, visit https://www.tileofspainawards.com/2026-edition/.
