LOS ANGELES (August 15, 2007) – Tile Painter 2.0, the highly anticipated one-of-a-kind proprietary online design tool from California Pottery & Tile Works (CPTW) launched today.  By combining modern design technology with the ancient craft of ceramics, CPTW has quickly become the go-to place for design professionals, contractors and do-it-yourselfers throughout California and the Southwestern United States. With the August 15, 2007 release of Tile Painter 2.0, CPTW has improved upon an already invaluable tool for anyone who wants to capture the essence of “Old World” tile making or invent a 21st Century re-interpretation of classic Malibu-inspired tiles.  The new Tile Painter2.0 from CPTW will provide design professionals and their clients with the opportunity to quickly create unique custom tile designs, and will secure the company’s place as the industry leader in fusing cyber-technology, enhanced platforms and good ole’ fashioned tile design.

“Customization is a key aspect of our business model,” comments CPTW founder Sean McLean, who originally created the concept for Tile Painter in 1995. The online, user friendly version of Tile Painter, was initially launched in 2001. 

“Tile Painter 2.0 is the true definition of what I imagined as an online tile designer,” McLean adds about the highly integrated features, easy-to-use applications, user-friendly navigation and interactive tutorial flash program for industry professionals and their clients.  Tile Painter allows design professionals to layout their original ceramic visions, in full color.  Tile Painter also provides a huge boost to designers and architects when faced with residential and commercial clients who need a little help in visualizing the finished product before ordering strike-offs and prior to order fulfillment. The use of Tile Painter by the design professional will assist us at CPTW in making sure that a project is delivered on-time and on-budget with minimal or no change orders.  The new, Tile Painter 2.0 is just what McLean envisioned as the most cost and time effective way to fulfill the high volume, time sensitive orders required by developers of commercial and hospitality projects as well as being a reliable, time-saving tool to satisfy the  discriminating tastes and specific needs of residential clients.
