ARTO on DIY’s Extra Yardage

Enjoy a nine minute video of ARTO highlights on the new hit DIY Series “Extra Yardage”.    The host Billy Derian is not only enjoyable to watch but has a vision for transforming dull backyards to livable spaces that inspire.  Of course those spaces  include plenty of ARTO.   You can see full versions of these episodes on the DIY network.

Filming has already begun on the next season and that’s right,  there will be plenty of beautiful ARTO tiles, bricks, Roman pavers, and precast to see.

Thanks for watching and feel free to leave a comment.

Timeless Artistic Tiles

Call it Arabesque.  Call it Celtic, Moorish, interlace, Islamic.  Modern?   Rustic?  Although the ideas, and these classic shapes, have been around for thousands of years ARTO has interpreted them in a new way.

Concrete.

Integrated colored concrete to be specific.

Arto has been creating brick, tile and precast in southern California since 1966 using colored concrete.  The result is the ability to produce any shape, color and style imaginable.

Which brings us back to Arabesque.  It’s not new.  But what you can do with it becomes new.  Be traditional or untraditional.  Be rustic and modern at the same time.  Add bold colors or muted tones.
If you can think it we can do it.
