HAPPY NEW YEAR!
African Art Gallery + Powder Room
Project of the Month
The family's 1st floor powder room gets heavy use in the warm weather (remember summer?) as the guest changing room for the pool, in addition to its use as a bathroom year round. The top priorities were for the bathroom to be a functional, practical design, easy to clean and to provide storage for extra TP, band aids and sunscreen, and hooks for guests. The family's excellent collection of African art inspired the hanging of their masks from Cameroon instead of the more expected framed paintings.
Inspiration
We love this dimensional hex tile from Wayne Tile. It was so fun to work with and provided just the right amount of interest without being too busy. The clients and I spread it out on the living room floor to determine the placement of the flat hex and the 3 dimensional variations. So many possibilities.

Resting up for 2022

Wishing you all as much rest and relaxation as you can get this holiday season. I'm on puzzle #3 this week. Here's #2 which combines my favorites: puzzles, tile and photos of shoes + tile. #IHaveThisThingWithTile.
