| Randy Hopfer is the founder and President of Tile Surface Impressions. His company provides art on tile products for homes and businesses. Randy is keen on working with designers to help them provide additional value to their clients, with custom tile art. In kitchens, for example, designers can install tile art backsplashes on ceramic, porcelain, glass or tumbled stone, to create an extra element of pizzazz. Or they may consider a glass shower wall with a beach and ocean scene to turn a bathroom into a visual oasis. Sometimes small accents are all that’s required to elevate the project, allowing designers to charge their clients more for the added beauty. Randy’s products are carried at a number of distributor outlets in the Northwest and California. These include Contract Furnishings Mart, Outdoor Kitchen World, Carpet One, Cascade Flooring, Cascade Design Center and many others.
As a well-known wildlife photographer, Randy has established special relationships with fellow artists and photographers throughout the Northwest. The hundreds of original pieces of art available for Randy to use are shown in his catalogue and on his website. And if a customer has their own artwork or photo, Randy can use his high quality digital photography capture process to turn any image into tile artwork.
Randy loves the challenge of unusual projects and he offers free consultation services to NWSID designers. Every tile is customer made. He can help you with material choices and installation options. If you have a special color or pattern you want to carry from another part of your design into tile, he can do that. Of course the earlier in the design stage you call Randy, the easier it is for him to help you craft design options that will allow you to offer your client a product that is uniquely valuable.
