Architessa’s Annual Crab Feast happened this weekend 🦀

“Turned out to be a perfect, cool, breezy day and wonderful for crab picking.” -

Glass tile can transform a space into something truly unique. With such uniqueness, however, comes complex installations and tricks of the trade that often elude most homeowners. Take a look at grout + mosaics combinations and more on our 101 page.

This veterinary dental clinic in Annapolis, MD sought for a tile that was both hygienic and would make their furry customers feel right at home - and landed on CANINE, our dog-print cement tile collection. Happy !

Lauren Liess’ design style focuses on the love of home and the idea that your space is not just lived in - but loved. She finds perfection in the imperfections leading to authentic well-designed spaces. The Habitat Collection embodies all that it means to tell your story with design.

Salt air and the rust color-way. 🎶 Hello August!

MERIBA takes the classic look of terracotta tile and elevates it, resulting in a more innovative and inspired look in porcelain.

Proudly made in the USA, the TITAN collection features versatile 12x24 tiles and distinctive hex mosaics, available in sophisticated shades of Black, Greige, and Shell.

A custom gray kitchen we designed in Bethesda Maryland for a penthouse condo. As we often include are two islands, one for cooking and one for work and dining. The mosaic tiles on the backsplash are from Architessa. The small balcony off the kitchen has a cafe table and is perfect for morning coffee or at any time of the day. Because the kitchen is small, I chose to match countertops to cabinet color. Ceramics from Michael Kline Pottery and Cross MacKenzie Gallery. Custom painted striped gray wall by decorative painter Tom Hickey. Kitchens of Instagram.

Here's inspiration for a teen bathroom with all the storage needs and soft sage aesthetics. This installation uses penny rounds on the ceiling, niche, and shower floor!
