Tile America Collaborates with Junior League of Hartford and Connecticut Cottages & Gardens on 2025 Designer Show House
May 6, 2025 – Hartford, CT — Tile America is proud to announce its participation in the 2025 Designer Show House, presented by the Junior League of Hartford and CTC&G (Connecticut Cottages & Gardens). This year’s show house is set in a grand Tudor residence nestled in the heart of Elizabeth Park, one of Hartford’s most iconic and historic neighborhoods.
The Designer Show House is a celebrated biennial tradition that brings together top interior designers and artisans to transform a stately home, all in support of the Junior League’s mission to improve communities through the action and leadership of trained volunteers. The 2025 edition promises to be one of the most captivating yet.
Tile America’s contribution is featured in a stunning speakeasy-inspired room — a hidden gem within the home — complete with a secret entrance and an aura of opulence. The space showcases hand-crafted tile from California Art Tile in Suprema Emerald Green Gloss, sourced and supplied by Tile America. The richly glazed green tile adds depth, drama, and timeless elegance to the space, embodying the artistry and attention to detail that defines this year's show house.
“We are honored to be part of this inspiring collaboration,” said Brian Knies, President of Tile America. “It’s a privilege to support a project that celebrates design excellence while giving back to the community. Being included in a space that is as imaginative as it is luxurious speaks to the core of what we do at Tile America — bringing inspiration to reality.”
The Designer Show House opened with an Opening Night Gala on Friday, May 2nd and will be open for public tours through Friday, May 23rd. Visitors can expect a tour filled with design innovation, historical charm, and extraordinary craftsmanship.
