| Started in 1984, Architectural Ceramics, Inc (ACI)- a premiere tile |
| company developed a local clientele around the Washington, DC |
| area through combining the full spectrum of ceramic tile, |
| porcelain, and natural stone with the professional service |
| of experienced design consultants. ACI has been labeled |
| as "Where the Architects and Designers shop," |
| (Washingtonian Magazine). |
| |
| Based on our experience ACI saw needs that weren't currently |
| being fulfilled with the available product mix and the Washington |
| metropolitan area was growing in their sophistication. For instance |
| a client would pick a wonderful stone and not have a threshold, |
| mosaics or a corner shelf in the same stone to complete a shower |
| installation. |
| |
| ACI decided to become designers and importers of |
| our own line of tiles called Architectural Collections in order |
| to keep and satisfy more Architects, Designers, Builders, |
| Kitchen and Bath stores and other design professionals. |
| Architectural Collections, Inc. began in 2004 importing |
| tile from around the world. Architectural Collections |
| carries natural stones, ceramics, and glass tiles from |
| Mexico, Venezuela, China, Italy, United Arab Emirates, |
| Turkey, Egypt and more. |
