Orlando Soria

Meet Orlando

From his TV shows to his design book, seasoned Fireclay collaborator Orlando Soria is known for his beautifully elevated spaces and signature humor. Now he’s bringing his talent and love for tile to his latest project: the transformation of his Yosemite home, Londo Lodge.

We caught up with Orlando to discuss his design philosophy, favorite tile moments, and the timeless inspiration behind his kitchen renovation (hint: think Nancy Meyers).

Orlando's Pattern Play

Londo Lodge Kitchen Backsplash & Floor

The cozy Yosemite getaway is kitted out in Fireclay Tile, with a parquet pattern of Glazed Thin Brick in White Mountains across the floor complemented by an eye-catching backsplash of interlocking Chaine Homme Tile in Mist.

A Blue Hexite Kitchen Dream

Tasked with renovating his parents' kitchen, the designer opted for a Crater Lake geometric backsplash and rich peacock island as a nod to his mother's favorite color.

Small Backsplash, Big Impact

Orlando transformed his kitchen into an ultra-chic retreat with help from our Chaine Homme Tile. This subtle take on a bold pattern leaves a striking impact in a smaller space.
