Dimensional Tile decorates Exterior Design

ModCraft as Handmade tile

ModCraft Hudson tile was selected by landscape designer Di Zock to add a dimensional material to create the movement and flow she wanted for this Pacific Palisades outdoor renovation. The contemporary home recieved a makeover of the front and backyard that incorporates architectural elements from the inside of the house and the exterior into the design. The goal was to create beautiful and functional spaces for the family to enjoy meals outside as well as entertain guests.

Flora of the surrounding area in the Pacific Palisades includes eucylptus and oak trees. Di's palette for the design included silvers, blues and greens using Yucca Rostrata, prostrate rosemary, and agave which complements the charcoal gray house. 

The addition of ModCraft tile on the feature walls in the pool area as well as the barbecue creates, according to Di Zock "a striking feature in the garden with the subtle flowing dynamic the completed pattern makes."

Di Zock uses ModCraft dimensional tile style Hudson to create the ebb and flow that adds to the fun and function of this outdoor space. Hudson is a larger scale porcelain tile at 4" x 10." She chose ModCraft's pewter glaze to complement the landscape design pallette.
