Tile by Design is located in Fort Wayne, Indiana and was started by Brian Robertson and Lori Stout in the fall of 2004.

Brian Robertson is an avid artist who works by day as Vice President and Co Owner of Jensen Cabinet, Inc., an airport casework specialty company, and by night as Co Owner of Tile By Design. Brian's desire to start Tile By Design came about when he needed an additional outlet to express his artistic abilities while applying his business knowledge gained over the years. "We saw there was a need for high quality tile murals at a reasonable price...we enjoy filling that need!"- Brian Robertson

Pictured above middle is our Mast "Gogh" Don, a mastodon painted as a community art project celebrating the 40th anniversary of Indiana University - Purdue University in Fort Wayne. It was 1 of 102 Mastodons placed in and around Fort Wayne, In.  We painted 10 of Vincent Van Gogh's paintings on the body of the Mastodon. It was purchased by Dr. Rudy Kachmann at the United Way Auction and is currently on display at the Kachmann Gallery located at 1301 Lafayette Street, downtown Fort Wayne.
