Nostalgia meets modern design in retro tile designs with Tile of Spain

Latest News Mon, Jun 9, 2025 12:58 PM

As the design world continues to embrace nostalgia, the 70s aesthetic has made a striking comeback in modern interiors. From bold colours to geometric designs and intricate patterns, Tile of Spain manufacturers are embracing this trend with a diverse range of retro-inspired tiles, offering endless opportunities to add personality and create distinctive interiors.

Perfectly capturing the vibrant and nostalgic essence of the 70s, retro floral tiles remain a popular choice for homeowners and designers looking to infuse their interiors with a groovy, quirky charm. Defined by playful colours and vivid patterns, these tiles provide a refreshing alternative to minimalist designs, adding visual interest and texture to any space.

Rich terracottas, mustard yellows, deep browns, and avocado greens are key colours defining the retro aesthetic in interiors. These warm, grounding shades capture the relaxed yet bold essence of the 70s, making them ideal for adding vintage charm to both contemporary and traditional spaces. Pairing these nostalgic hues with neutral palettes can create a balanced yet visually stunning scheme, blending old school appeal with modern elegance.

Unusual patterns were a defining feature of retro tiles, originally loved for adding visual interest to floors, walls, splashbacks and even outdoor spaces. Today, these bold designs are making a stylish comeback. With their abstract look and distinctive shapes, geometric patterns are particularly popular, perfect for those looking to make a statement and transform interiors into works of art.

Featuring glossy chromatic glazes in rich colours, Cevica’s new Funky collection channels the vibrant energy of the 70s, bringing character and nostalgic charm into interiors. The glossy finish reflects light beautifully, adding a playful yet striking touch to any space. For a truly distinctive look, pair these tiles with contrasting grout lines to enhance the pattern and make the grout an integral part of the design.

Representing 125 ceramic tile manufacturers across Spain, Tile of Spain promotes the incredible quality and values worldwide of the Spanish tile industry. Versatile, durable and authentic, Spanish tiles offer unique characteristics and unlimited aesthetic possibilities whilst acting as a global benchmark for their high degree of innovation.
