It starts with color, shape, and size.  For example, Rustico Tile and Stone offers Spanish floor tile in a vast selection of shapes and sizes – all of which come in 3 different finishes.  Tried and true lends itself to our standard 12×12-inch square tile.  Not only is it our best value per square foot Spanish floor tile, but it’s also easy to install.

Other options include Hexagon, Star Cross Pattern, Octagon with decorative inserts, our popular Riviera pattern, Rectangles, and more.  There is a shape for every design style.  Each of these shapes comes in sizes as small as 4×4-inches to 24×24-inches.  Warning: Don’t get lost in the options of Spanish floor tile shapes and sizes.  So, keep your eye on the prize!

Once you’ve considered shapes, it’s time to focus on colors.  Any tile you choose is available in Traditional, Manganese, Spanish Mission Red, Antique Mission Red, or Antique finishes.  For example, Traditional Saltillo Spanish floor tile blends terra cotta shades of color.  Manganese Saltillo tiles span light to dark browns with terra cotta shades that bleed through the tile’s surface.  Spanish Mission Red has dark terracotta colors with only traces of light colors. Antique Mission Red has these same colors but a textured surface for a non-slip finish. Antique Saltillo Spanish floor tile offers a unique blend of old-world terra cotta shades of color.  With added texture on Antique Saltillo, these Spanish floor tiles are reminiscent of centuries-old, reclaimed terracotta tiles.

Bathrooms and Kitchens are ideal spaces where Spanish floor tile should be used to make a statement about your style! For example, a square tile like this 12×12 Traditional Saltillo is budget-friendly and versatile in design.  This hill country kitchen pairs beautifully with a hand-carved Cantera stone hood and Copper decorative inserts.
