Ann Sacks has tapped longtime collaborators interior designer Kelly Wearstler and artist Andy Fleishman to expand their tile collections with new textural designs that bring a bold dimensionality to surfaces. Wearstler’s latest collection, Made Billow, offers two styles, one muted and one smooth, each in square and rectangular shapes, that cleverly play up light and shadow. The L.A.-based designer has also added 10 new saturated color options to her handmade, ombre-glazed stoneware collection, Fade, including Sunset, a peachy pink, and Shadow, a wash of navy blue over claret. Both collections are made in Portland, Oregon, where Ann Sacks was founded in 1981. Meanwhile, Fleishman’s Pillowed Leather collection marks his fifth collaboration with the company. Produced in his North Carolina studio, the 6×6-inch tiles are crafted to resemble leather, with realistic graining, subtle color variations and a curved surface that gives them an “upholstered” look. The new collections are available at Ann Sacks showrooms across the United States.
