Moroccan-inspired patterns and a modern take on traditional terrazzo have been the UK’s favourite tile designs in 2021, according to new data from independent retailer Porcelain Superstore.
 
The tile experts at the family-run business have revealed their top 10 best-selling tiles of 2021.  
 
Casablanca Mix, a vibrant, beautifully patterned tile topped the charts, closely followed by Opal Emerald, a bold green subway tile.
 
Porcelain Superstore’s playful take on terrazzo – Tutti Frutti was third, while Arlo Light – another striking take on terrazzo, finished fifth.

Sitting between Tutti Frutti and Arlo Light to take the fourth spot was Zellige Pearl, a cool, Moroccan-inspired beauty.

Abbas Youssefi, Director of Porcelain Superstore, said: “Morocco is synonymous with tiles, so it’s no surprise Moroccan-inspired tiles have an enduring appeal.

"Casablanca Mix is a real stunner of a tile with its traditional Moroccan detailing and bright, bold hues, which all come together to create a gorgeous tapestry of colour and pattern.

“Sneaking up behind is Tutti Frutti. Our terrazzo-inspired tiles have sold amazingly well in 2021 and Arlo Light has been another really strong contender. The terrazzo trend is not going anywhere and I think this is going to continue well into 2022 and beyond.
 
“It was interesting to see Opal Emerald so high. 2022 is going to be the year green tiles reign supreme.”

The best-sellers are based on sales data from January 1 2021, through to November 26, 2021. Tiles are ranked in terms of the number of orders (figures in brackets).
