IDS TINY HOUSE PROJECTS ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– seem taller and bigger. LATICRETE supplied setting materials. Designer Lauren Figueroa(l.) describes her design for the West Michigan House as Alena Capra and Dan Welch look on. Florim large format com- mercial tile was used through- out the space. Figueroa spent a lot of time on the Florim web- site to familiar- ize herself with the products, noticing that their tile is often used in com- mercial settings and decided to use that in the residential space. “I noticed they also used really giant tile for the whole entire space, and thought that might help it feel taller and longer…it made it flow really well,” she said. West Michigan house seating area looked very inviting after a long day at the show. Commercial tile from Florim gave an expansive feel to the space. Since they were both located in the Grand Rapids area, Figueroa and Welch collaborated on the house from the very beginning. 84 TileLetter | June 2017
