Origins Tile: Making a difference one tile at a time.

by
Forrest Lesch-Middelton

Through my work in clay I convey a passion for the parts of the
world that are often misrepresented when portrayed through war and
media. A few months ago a amazing company saw potential in my work and
made an offer to represent my Origins series of tile. In fact, Clé Tile
believes strongly in what I am doing and they have worked quickly to
feature Origins tile in The New York Times, and other major design
publications. As a result, more people have heard about my tile, leaving
me unable to produce at a rate that meets demand. Through Kickstarter I
hope to raise $20,000 to expand my studio so that it is able to scale
to meet any project, while still maintaining the integrity of the hand
made.
