\u201cWe reviewed countless photos of RAMSA\u2019s work and looked for themes we thought might translate well in tile,\u201d Walker Zanger\u2019s Jared Becker told Dezeen. \u201cAfter giving this feedback to their design team, they generated several suites of designs that we then narrowed down to the pieces that comprise the collection.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Shingle, which resembles fish scales, is a nod to the wooden shingle cladding Stern created earlier in his career and still uses today, especially in coastal homes in the northeast of America.<\/p>\n The Avenue design grew out of Walker Zanger\u2019s interest in re-interpreting the classic three-by-six inch subway tile, used ubiquitously on the New York underground system.<\/p>\n The Wave references coastal influences with its soft curves, Ovolo is based on the aerial view of RAMSA\u2019s The Century skyscraper in Los Angeles, and Quartet comprises square tiles with circles cutting into two of the four corners.<\/p>\n The design and architecture of the Vienna Secession artistic movement from the turn of the 20th century \u2013 which influenced elements of Stern\u2019s Boardwalk at Disney World \u2013 provided inspiration for Otto. Finally, Trellis references the indoor garden rooms of summer homes on the east coast of America.<\/p>\n \u201cWe went through numerous iterations of design, paying a lot of attention to scale, degree of relief and other details that make the final product so unique,\u201d said Becker. \u201cIt was a great collaborative process.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n![\"Ceramic](\"http:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ceramic-tiles-inspired-by-postmodern-architecture-that-can-become-a-trend-6.jpg\")
