The Valley Vista residence in Encino, CA, the residential winner in the 2019 Ceramics of Italy Tile Competition, is clad almost entirely in Italian porcelain tile. “Encino is increasing its elegant status,” said Jamie Rezaie, partner for the DI Group in Beverly Hills, CA. "With so many new construction projects, Encino is quickly rising to the level of other well-known, affluent neighborhoods in the area, like Bel Air and Beverly Hills. This is a direct response to the rapid increase in wealth that Southern California has been experiencing within the last few years. The 'Valley Vista' project is a part of this trend, with an elegant, contemporary design made by large open spaces, numerous windows and the use of high-quality Italian tiles throughout.”
The project was designed by Rezaie from the DI Group and Adeet Madan. DI Group and Adeet Madan specified several collections from Supergres and Ceramiche Refin to cover the bathroom floors and walls, as well as the floors in the kitchen, dining room, foyer and living spaces. “Italian ceramics are distinguished by their elegant design as well as their vibrant and original taste," said Rezaie. "Which makes them well-suited for Californian weather and preferences."
