Windows, Floors & Walls: Popham Design
March 23rd, 2008
From Sarah:
When Los Angeles transplants Caitlin and Samuel Dowe-Sandes set about renovating a 250-year-old-house in Marrakech’s walled city, their experience formed the genesis for a tile business they named Popham Design. Popham Design uses local Moroccan artisans to hand-make cement tiles in an array of designs and colors that combine traditional elements with a contemporary twist; almond trees, arches, and donkey cart wheels are all sources of inspiration. For ordering information, go to Popham Design. Also available through Ann Sacks as the Paccha Collection.

I love the overall design and palette of the Dowe-Sandes’ home. The neutrals with the touch of blue is calming.
what about some art?
