The Story
This mudroom in Rockwall, Texas, is floored in ARTO's handcrafted Artillo Arabesque Pattern 13 in Spanish Cotto. The rounded, interlocking shapes run the full length of the room, their warm terracotta reds varying from tile to tile and set off by pale grout lines. The floor is sealed, which deepens the color and gives it a soft sheen that suits an everyday entry. Charcoal cabinetry with arched tops, a built-in bench with brass-handled grille drawers, and a framed still life on the wall complete the space, and the rustic red floor brings warmth to the darker millwork. Looking down the hall, the pattern continues toward the bright rooms beyond.
