good reads: heath’s tile makes the room.

i'm having quite the passionate love affair with tile right now. i've been entertaining the idea of some cement Moroccan-inspired tile for my kitchen floor and trying to get up the nerve to give that a go! so, the bay area's beloved heath ceramic's new book, tile makes the room may be just the thing i need to kickstart that idea into action. tile does very often make the room, and in the case of these beautiful spaces featured in the book, it definitely does. try and just imagine these rooms without the gorgeous heath ceramic's tile and i think you'll see — they just don't hold the magic. tile makes the room explores the role of tile in good design through the work of leading designers and architects in more than 50 projects from around the world. i'm truly inspired by so many of the spaces within the pages of tile makes the room (particularly the black and white geometric tiles just below) and ideas are bouncing around in my brain — now to just let them out!
