We design branded environments that transform boutique hospitality, retail, and wellness spaces into living worlds of experience.
Our visit to Julian Tile gave us the opportunity to experience materials beyond the sample scale. While photographs can only suggest their presence, this is a small glimpse into what stood out to us.
Seeing materials at scale changes how they read. Rhythm, tone, and surface behavior become clear in ways samples and images cannot convey. These insights guide how we specify finishes for commercial spaces designed to be lived in, touched, and experienced over time.
Our favorite tile from the visit was the Faces wall tile. You can explore it further on their site.
Thank you, Angelica, for guiding us through each specification with such care, clarity, and generosity of knowledge.

Our visit to La Linterna, in Cali. A typographic print workshop dedicated since 1934 to the craft of artisanal printing. Posters created using linoleum engraving and movable type, produced on historic presses that remain part of their everyday work.
Rooted in tradition, yet actively sustained by new generations who continue to learn, practice, and share the knowledge of the oficio.
Maestro Olmedo walked us through the workshop, sharing stories of the machines, the process, and the oficio itself. He signed a poster for us while salsa played in the background, mixing with the steady rhythm of the presses.
Vibrant prints come to life here. Posters of artists, musicians, songs, nature, and cultural stories.
Some days, as the light fades, the workshop opens into a place for culture, conversation, music, and beer.
