Friday, May 29, 2009. Best of Coverings, part 1. I caught the Amtrak in Alton, Illinois (just over the Mississippi from Florissant) to Chicago at about half past 5 am.

CONTEMPO TILE STUDIO: Splash of the Week: Marvelous Modern!
http://contempotilestudio.blogspot.com/2009/09/splash-of-week-marvelous-modern.html
Tuesday, September 8, 2009. Splash of the Week: Marvelous Modern! Often times, the backsplash is an afterthought. It is usually the last consideration in the kitchen space, and rightly so. Because there are so many options available, finding a splash that coordinates with the larger investments in the kitchen (cabinetry, countertops, appliances, etc.) only makes good sense. . 160; More that just a splash, this classic custom repeating pattern from Hakatai. Serves as wallpaper for the entire room! Camp ...

Monday, September 21, 2009. Splash of the Week: Red Hot! This recreation room kitchenette was designed and installed by Sullivan Conard Architects in Seattle. As the secondary kitchen space in the basement, their clients wanted to have a bit more fun! 160; The fingerprint resistant stainless cabinets are magnificent, but that backsplash steals the show!

Thursday, June 25, 2009. You say modern, I say Moderne! Have you any idea how difficult it is to get your hands on a Walker Zanger. Catalog. While I was working as a designer at ISC Surfaces in Saint Louis (a designer tile and surface showroom that was also open to the public), it was. Item that most often “walked” out of the door. Even though WZ has offered online access to the entire catalog for a long while, there really is nothing like turning those semi-gloss pages! The latest Walker Zanger catalog.
