Design Inspiration Blog — Breeze Blocks

A trio of Rotary Quince Breeze Block rows crowns this smooth stucco wall, introducing a bold architectural accent. Designed to welcome both sunlight and airflow, these sculptural forms bring a sense of lightness to a lush botanical retreat.

Sylvia’s Verona Breeze Block wall adds the perfect decorative backdrop to her stunning poolside oasis. Imagine floating here on a warm winter day, gazing up at swaying palm trees with snow-capped mountains in the distance. 🌴❄️💦

Brian, a passionate design enthusiast, has beautifully reimagined his iconic mid-century modern home in Palm Springs' Little Beverly Hills neighborhood. Originally built in 1957 by the Alexander Construction Company and designed by the influential architect William Krisel, the home was the area's original model house. Brian's renovation pays homage to its mid-century roots while incorporating his unique style. A standout feature is the use of Tesselle Divisia Breeze Blocks, creating eye-catching elements from a coordinating turquoise mailbox stand to a shaded front porch and a pathway to a luxurious pool area in the backyard, which offers stunning views of Mt. San Jacinto. Surrounded by a thoughtfully curated desert landscape, Brian's home effortlessly blends classic architecture with contemporary flair.
