Heath Ceramics is known for its glazed, handcrafted tiles, but Kaufmann, who is designing a line of recycled tiles for Heath, also appreciates its environmental conscience. Made from high-fire stoneware, Heath tiles can be used for floors, walls, pools, or fountains. Their 2-inch, 3-inch, 4-inch, 6-inch, and 12-inch configurations are available in more than 80 crackle, matte, and glossy glazes. Heath Ceramics, 415.332.3732; www.heathceramics.com.
