The Ceramics of Italy Tile Competition is officially accepting submissions for its 2025 North American edition! Organized by Confindustria Ceramica (the Italian Association of Ceramics) and the Italian Trade Agency, this prestigious, long-running awards program honors North American architects and designers who showcase the technical, aesthetic, and sustainable benefits of Italian ceramic and porcelain tile in design.

For the 2025 cycle, North American architects and designers are invited to submit projects across four categories—Residential, Non-Residential, Urban Design, Design & New Applications—completed between January 2020 and September 2024. A special Student category will also be open to students enrolled in accredited North American colleges or universities, carrying on the program’s tradition of recognizing and empowering the next generation of professional architects and designers.
