Life, Styled
In the second of our three-part series on selection tips, we want to focus on tile. Backsplash, shower walls, and flooring are just a few of the many uses for tile since it is beautiful, durable, and timeless. Sometimes considered a small part of the design, it has the potential to make a big impact on the design. Here are some helpful tips when choosing tile.
Budget
This is always an important factor when making a selection, and it’s essential to discuss it at the beginning so those assisting you during this process know what to show you. Keep in mind that the more custom and unique the tile, the higher the price point.
Material
Are you looking for a sleek tile or a textured tile? Both have their place in design, but some are more durable than others, so it is important to keep that in mind. If you are looking for a backsplash, looks and budget are the biggest things to consider, but if you want tile flooring, then you need to think about whether the material is easily scratched or slip-resistant.
Style
Did you want a simple subway tile design, a unique mosaic look, or maybe you wanted a pattern created by geometric shapes? This can add visual interest to your space and make a great focal point.

Walker Woodworking When it comes to kitchen design, bigger isn’t always better, but smarter always is. If you’re working with a smaller kitchen, you know the challenges all too well: limited storage, tight layouts, cluttered countertops, and the constant struggle to make everything fit without sacrificing style.
But here’s the truth: small spaces have incredible potential. With the right design approach, even the most compact space can feel functional, organized, and beautifully custom. And that’s where custom cabinetry truly shines.
A kitchen remodel is one of the most exciting investments you can make in your home. From selecting countertops and lighting to choosing paint colors and appliances, the possibilities are endless. But before you start picking out tile samples or shopping for fixtures, there’s one important decision that should come first: choosing your cabinet designer.
