Some spaces just make you exhale—and this one does exactly that. Set against a vivid blue sky, this outdoor lounge area brings together comfort, nature, and bold design with a little help from our Sonora Cholla Cement Tiles.
The star of the space? That stunning tiled wall. Made up of our hand-pressed Sonora Cholla tiles in green and white, the design forms a modern organic medallion pattern that feels both rhythmic and relaxed. Depending on how the tiles are laid out, the pattern shifts—adding dimension and movement without overpowering the setting.
The wall becomes more than just a backdrop. It defines the space, frames the seating area, and ties everything together. The neutral tones of the wicker seating and soft gray cushions let the tile pattern shine, while the firepit and surrounding greenery complete the look with warmth and texture. Nestled into the firepit is a touch of unexpected color—golden blooms and sculptural succulents that echo the circular shapes of the tile itself.
This is the kind of space that invites you to stay a while. Whether you’re catching up with friends or winding down after a long day, it’s a reminder that design can be both functional and deeply atmospheric.
Sonora Cholla was designed by Karin Jeske and is available exclusively from Tesselle. Like all of our cement tiles, each piece is crafted by hand, making every installation uniquely yours. Durable enough for outdoor use and refined enough for interiors, this tile is a favorite for those who want bold design with lasting impact.
Thinking about your next outdoor project? Sonora Cholla might be just the detail that brings it to life.
