# friday features: K+BB tours Hearst Castle

 19 October 2012

if you've never been to Hearst Castle, it is a definite must-see on your list of things to do whilst visiting the west coast. half-way between san francisco and LA, it's the perfect mid-way stop along the stunningly wild pacific coastline that is still mostly untouched. the thing that most people say after a visit to the Castle is-

"it was more unbelievable than i would have ever imagined".

earlier this year, K+BB (kitchen + bath business) the magazine for all trades involved in creating dream kitchens and baths took a moment to feature the Hearst Castle Collection of Tiles by Tilevera, a tile collection for and inspired by this awe-inspiring architectural wonder.

one of the series featured from the collection: the smalti series of glass mosaic tiles in colors that are so of the moment that it would be hard to place them in an historic setting. here are the "modern-pop" tiles from the Hearst Castle Collection that even includes 24kt gold tiles. how modern is that!?

inspired by the roman glass pool at the Castle, i'm going to go all out to say- it's beyond any indoor pool tile installation, period!
