The Vivace Porcelain Vibe

We love to see how our clients choose to style their homes with our products and turn them into something so personal; something that fits their personality and makes their house their special home. Our Vivace Collection is such a versatile series that can be designed so many ways. We're excited to share how a Interior Stylist Kirsten Grove brought it into her home and created spaces with an amazing Vivace vibe!

Designer: Kirsten Grove of Simply Grove

Interior stylist and author, Kirsten Grove, of Simply Grove in Boise, ID, was looking to create a European approach to her patio and home's entryway that would feel timeless and not trendy. She chose to tile these spaces with our Vivace 9"x9" porcelain tile in the Caviar Roads pattern. This particular black tile is divided in half on the diagonal with six white stripes on one side and a solid black triangle on the other. Depending on how you set the tile, you can create several patterns. We love how Kirsten found two ways to style her tile. She created huge striped and solid diamonds on her patio and an eye-catching geometric pattern for her home's entryway.
