The purpose of the Tile of Spain Awards is to raise a greater awareness of the use of Spanish tiles in architectural and interior design projects (both in Spain and abroad). The Tile of Spain Awards is a well-established event with a prestigious reputation among professionals from the world of architecture.
The award for Architecture went to the project Casa Puntiró by Ripoll-Tizón architects’ studio, the same studio that won the prize last year. The winner in the Interior Design category was the project in Granada, Casa Isabel la Católica, by GRX architects.
The Awards have a monetary prize of €15,000 for each of the first prizes in the architecture and interior design categories. The Tile of Spain Awards are sponsored by Endesa and the Valencia Port Authority and are supported by the Conselleria de Hacienda of the Valencian Government.
