Milestone Tiles Launches Stories Concept, First Collaborative Collection
Jennifer Farris of Bandura Design joined Milestone Tile’s Design Advisory Council (DAC). The purpose of the DAC was to collaborate with the American design community for trends and design needs. Milestone presented the designers with an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at how tile is made. Subsequently, the designers were presented with a task: to design a tile collection, with a story, for the opportunity to have their tile manufactured and included within the Milestone Tiles collection. The concept of Stories, “Giving a Voice to the American Design Community”, was created, with the first inaugural collection - Bestow. The story behind Bestow is steeped in history and heritage.
“For thousands of years, the world over, women have handed down traditional knowledge of handmade creations used both to survive and thrive as individuals and as a community. This collection is therefore bestowed upon us by generations of women," said Farris.
