Paramount Pattern in Clover, Studio Moderne by Michael Berman
I am in the midst of designing two bathrooms for a client and am shopping for tile. While in our local Walker Zanger Tile respresentative's showroom( Natural Stone Design Gallery), I got the update on the latest catalog. Walker Zanger is known for putting out a pretty glamorous tile catalog, and in the past, I have always been lucky to get a free copy. But I found out that this year, things are a bit different. Not only has the catalog been updated with these delicious photos. But the catalog has been beautifully hardbound in black linen. It is something one could put out on a coffee table. Amazing really: bigger, heavier, wonderful paper quality and photo quality.

Now for the down side....... I may have to actually BUY one! AND I have heard they are not inexpensive...potentially selling for $50! Walker Zanger....how could you? Don't you realize I love looking through those pages on a regular basis? I am all for saving trees and I realize everything is available for all to see on your very user friendly website here. But now that I got a brief peek at your new catalog at the showroom with it's black linen embossed cover, I am coveting it.

Perhaps we can come to some sort of an understanding..... A "deal" if you will. There must be some way we can work this out.

So many amazing choices! I love the geometric shapes and moroccan influenced tiles.
The tile pictures are beautiful! Now I want to see more too. :)
Ooohhh look at those delectable tiles. Black linen cover you say???? Hmmmmmmm.
Loved that kitchen pic too!
Absolutely amazing tile!...and a great blog:)
Wow a black linen cover and the catalog is bound into it! Amazing. I would want one as well.
I'm hoping WZ will see this blog post and send one your way!!
Fingers crossed.
Swoon!!! I love them - especially that black and white rectangular pattern. Just stunning.
just beautiful, all of them!
It makes sense their catalog would be bound like an art book. Their tiles are definitely art. I lose my mind in their showroom!
tile porn. gotta love it. must have a copy but can't see spending $50.00 on such a thing.
Fabulous! I love the marquis pattern in mica glass,Sonia Nash pattern,La Fleur Pattern Noir and the Lagos Azul and Calacuta Luna Marble floor.
This is a great collection. It makes me want to go tile something! Love your blog.
*sigh* i so miss walker zanger!!!
such lovely tiles, I will need to look at their website to see if they ship (maybe I should try my old rep in LA??? see if they are still there)
fantastic post.
I love the 'embossed' tiles, they just give it that bit more...
I love that kitchen too!
Simply gorgeous. Makes me want to renovate!
So many amazing choices and all so beautiful! Glad it's you and not me! :-)
What ever you do will look great!
those tiles are off the charts - fantastic. the powder blue moroccan tiles are heaven.
Crazed over the clover & marquis tiles. All the images were terrific. What a beautiful post!
