The Stories concept by MILE®stone is an innovative platform created to elevate voices within the American Design Community, allowing designers to express their unique perspectives and expertise through premium tile collections. Each chapter introduces a fresh narrative, connecting designers’ creative visions with MILE®stone’s commitment to excellence and craftsmanship.
MILE®stone’s Design Advisory Council (DAC) members, composed of designers selected for their achievements and influence in the design community, submit collection concepts for consideration. From these submissions, one collection is selected for development. This third chapter’s collaboration with Sarah Rink promises to be an exciting addition. Sarah, a current member of and an active Interior Designer will work with the MILE®stone design team to blend artistry with function.
The first two chapters of Stories featured successful collaborations with former DAC members Jennifer Farris, Bandura Design, for the Bestow collection and Michele McMinn, Gresham Smith, for the imprint collection. As the new chapter is introduced, MILE®stone looks forward to continuing the legacy by bringing Sarah’s vision to life, setting new standards for innovation, style, and craftsmanship in porcelain tile.
