Tile Makes the Room

PUBLISHED 2017

“ This book is about contemporary spaces (though good design always nods to the past) that use tile in creative ways. It’s about a tile installation’s ability to drive design, and the questions one ought to ask when working with an element, like tile, that has limitless expression and opportunity. It’s about our love for the material and what we’ve learned from making it at Heath. We’ve never seen it as an individual piece in a particular size or color. We see the installation that’s brought to life, like a picture on a wall, or cladding a building or floor—an expression of the space and of the mood you wish to create. This way of thinking about tile takes it beyond a building material, one you simply buy off the shelf, and elevates it to an art or craft. ”
