Heath Ceramics
Every piece is still made in our original factory in Sausalito, California and crafted in the same manner as it has been for the past 55 years.
Dwell Patterns
Dwell Patterns was developed in collaboration with Heath ceramics and the Dwell team. The line celebrates the common belief that modern design is simultaneously functional and expressive, bold and organic. When the two-dimensional shapes are matched with the long-standing qualities of Heath tiles, new patterns with handcrafted beauty and individual variation are revealed.

shapes
The foundation for Dwell Patterns begins with these three new tile shapes.

patterns
Using the Little Diamond, Wide Hex and Half Hex, we designed and curated these five layouts that give rise to endless color and design possibilities.
- Available 1-color Patterns (enlarge)
- Available 2-color Patterns (enlarge)
- Available 3-color Patterns (enlarge)
Dwell Patterns is offered through both our Made-to-Order and In-Stock tile lines.
// MADE-TO-ORDER - Choose a layout, choose from any of our glazes - mix and match in a combination of 1, 2 or 3 colors - the possibilities really are endless.
// IN-STOCK - Choose a layout, choose from Antique White (G1 glossy) and Stone White (M2 matte). Walk out with your tile, same day - fewer possibilities with instant gratification.
answers to your questions
What is Dwell Patterns?
- Dwell Patterns is comprised of three new tile shapes: Little diamond, wide hex, half hex.
- These three tiles give rise to five specially designed layouts curated by the Heath/Dwell team: Little diamond mix, wide hex stack, wide hex twist, half hex stack & half hex mix.
- The three tiles and five layouts give rise to endless pattern and color combinations.
What does Dwell Patterns cost?
• The prices range from $24-48+sf, depending on the size, shape, complexity and face mounting option of your order.
Can I create my own pattern in any glaze?
• Little diamond, wide hex and half hex are available individually, in any of Heath’s glazes. Patterns outside the five designed by the Heath/Dwell team are available unmounted only.
Is face mounting available?
• Yes, face mounting is available for any of the five Dwell/Heath layouts, for both In-Stock and Made-to-Order lines. Additional cost and lead-times apply.
Can I do the installation myself?
• We recommend using a skilled contractor for your installation. This is an advanced system that will cost roughly 1.5x the average installation cost due to the size and intricacy of the pattern.
Are trim tiles available?
• We offer Schluter in place of trim pieces. Schluter is a clean, cost-effective, tile-finishing product that’s available in many forms.
What is the recommended grout line?
• We recommend a minimum of 1/8” grout line for all Heath tile installations.
Can I order samples?
• Yes, samples are available. Shape samples are shown in white and glaze samples are shown on 2x4” tiles. Due to the infinite possibilities in the Dwell Patterns line, we’re unable to represent both on the same tile.
Where can I order Dwell Patterns?
• Dwell Patterns is available through Heath Ceramics, only.
