Bodega that Only Sells Things Beginning with the Letter “P”

PROJECT:

Custom Illustrated Tile

LOCATION:

Powell HQ | Nashville, TN

DESCRIPTION:

“Bodega That Only Sells Things Starting with the Letter P”, a conceptual tile design for Part 2 of our Powell HQ surface design collaboration. Designer, Katie Vance, wanted to create something special for the front of the kitchen/bar area and entrance to the hallway. We liked that it looked like a storefront with window service so we ran with that idea and made it tongue-in-cheek by creating illustrations of objects that start with P to glaze onto the tile. Making this list of P-word options with Powell was probably the most fun part! As ever, we called upon the great @redrocktileworks to help us realize this idea. They helped us with the glaze transfers for the illustrations and custom matched a glaze to the Powell peach brand color. We finished out the palette by calling upon that rich glossy burgundy tile as a compliment with accents of the Wasabi green stripe and our favorite detail, the vermilion pencil corner tile to border the openings of the “storefront”.
