“We’re always searching out the next wave of design style that reflects our timeless craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetic,” says Laurie Leahy, MATERIAL vice president of sales and marketing. “Jeff Trotter brings the fresh energy, superior talent, and distinctive West Coast vibe we’re eager to embrace with our latest collection.”

“Jeff Trotter Design and MATERIAL share the same passion for celebrating the unparalleled beauty of natural stone,” says Trotter. “I’m honored to lend my unique design perspective to the task of establishing a sophisticated new line that epitomizes the fearless creativity of my brand and MATERIAL’s reputation for exquisite bespoke elements.”

Under the leadership of President/CEO Tim Roberts, MATERIAL Bespoke Stone + Tile carries forward a longstanding heritage among elite coastal luxury designers for remarkable quality, innovation, and authenticity, leveraging international partnerships to cultivate a distinguished selection from quarry to showroom. A former set designer and art director for a major motion picture studio, Trotter’s design experience led to an expansive portfolio that includes the restoration of historic residential properties and the design of multiple residential/commercial spaces and high-profile entertainment venues. Following the success of Stone Surf, Trotter’s elaborate home collection of simulated stone surfboard statement pieces, MATERIAL sought out the pioneering artist’s insights on a collaborative new collection built to stand the test of time. 

Discover an enduring Jeff Trotter Design by MATERIAL selection of natural stone fireplaces, tile mosaics, freestanding stonework, and more that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, redefining “natural beauty” in the modern design scape.
