As we countdown to 2020, we're looking back on the best of 2019. With so many incredible commercial installations to choose from, it was no easy feat to pick just ten! It's been a year of Glazed Thin Brick, graphic patterns, rich colors, and a whole lot of beautiful design that we're so proud to be a part of. We're recapping some of our favorites here but for more, head to our Pinterest Board that has even more highlights from this past year. Working on a commercial project? Get in touch with us!
