Introducing the 2026 ‘Tiles of the Year’
Luxe Earth from the Vetta Elements Collection is a versatile porcelain tile designed to elevate any space. Its rich, earthy tones bring warmth to both indoor and outdoor settings, providing a welcoming foundation. With a mix-and-match approach, homeowners and designers can experiment with sizes, colors, and patterns to craft a personalized look that is durable enough for high-traffic areas yet refined enough for feature walls. Vetta Elements demonstrates how design-forward style and practicality can coexist seamlessly.
“This year’s design trends celebrate both nature’s richness and the joy of personal expression,” said Ashley Biscan, Design & Trend Expert at Floor & Decor. “From earthy palettes and textured materials to layered patterns and tailored combinations, every space can feel thoughtful and dynamic. The Vetta Elements Collection in Luxe Earth captures this spirit perfectly, offering versatile ways to mix colors, textures, and formats for interiors that are both sophisticated and uniquely personal.”
Retro Rhapsody: Amp up the volume with the splendor of the 70s
Warm nostalgia meets contemporary polish as the spirit of the 1970s reenters the home. Saturated hues, sculptural forms, and rich wood finishes create spaces that feel expressive yet intentional. Deep ambers, soft burgundies, and smoky neutrals pair with geometric patterns, curved silhouettes, and tactile materials to bring depth and personality to kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas. When balanced with clean lines and refined finishes, these retro influences feel inviting and distinctly current.
Crème Brûlée Kitchens: Recreate the clean simplicity of the white kitchen with a warm twist
The classic white kitchen is being refreshed through toasted neutrals, with layers of vanilla, eggshell, and Swiss Coffee bringing warmth and depth to the heart of the home without sacrificing brightness. Subtle tonal variation across cabinetry, surfaces, and finishes creates a cohesive, elevated look that feels timeless yet indulgent.
Material-Driven Design
Natural influence is taking a more textural, tonal form. Colors drawn from earth, sand, and sky are interpreted through layered finishes and pronounced surfaces, adding richness and dimension to interiors with material-driven spaces with an emphasis on depth and organic continuity.
Coordinated Palette
The palette offers a framework for pairing tones, textures, and materials throughout the home. Coordinating these colors with tiles, wood, and stone creates harmonious interiors that feel both inviting and carefully curated.
