DECORATIVE TILE | FLORIDA DESIGN WORKS
Glass, mosaic or translucent tile can be central to calming, luxurious design. Alternatively, as a way to channel a chic, retro vibe, Design Works also sees decorative tiles placed in either classic or postmodern geometric patterns as an emerging trend for 2021. Add a pop of ‘Illuminating,’ Pantone’s yellow-hued Color of the Year, and design may be elevated from ordinary to extraordinary. As an exclusive partner to some of the most coveted, custom product lines, Design Works provides clients with an extensive selection of imported, hand-crafted and bespoke products.

CLEAN, MODERN LINES | YODER HOMES
Guided by their company core value of “unquestionable integrity,” Yoder Homes specializes in custom-built homes, remodeling projects, room additions, and historical renovations. Over the past decade Yoder Homes has built a reputation as a reliable source for homeowners looking to incorporate unique interior features into their homes. Many of these projects involve high-end finishing that requires a superior level of expertise and proficiency. Yoder Homes has shared that Suncoast homeowners enjoy living in spaces with clean, modern lines. To implement this trend, Yoder Homes has recently completed a large scale, remodeling project where trey ceilings and soffits were removed to create a flat, one-level ceiling. The complexity of the project was furthered by the task of leveling the room’s floors to remove step-downs in an effort to maximize water views. Yoder Homes understands that these complex renovations, which are often fashioned in a Coastal Contemporary style, require expert planning, design, and craftmanship. The Yoder Homes team can work directly with clients from start to finish or can collaborate with a client and their architect to manage the construction side of a project. In addition to home building and renovations, Yoder Homes also offers custom cabinetry, storage solutions, hardware installation, flooring and window coverings. To assist with the design process, Yoder Homes maintains a state-of-the-art showroom to display their wide range of high-quality cabinetry and resources. Whether a client is seeking a new home or looking to renovate an existing one, Yoder Homes is dedicated to incorporating practices that support long term sustainability to projects- so integrity and craftmanship can be enjoyed well into the future.
