Motawi Tileworks

The team at Motawi Tileworks is passionate about making great tile while spreading our  positivity, and sharing our experience. The company was founded in 1992 by Nawal Motawi, who started making tiles in her garage and selling them at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market next to the rutabaga sellers. More than 30 staff members now make tiles in a 12,900 square foot studio.  Nawal's motto: It's fun to be good! (at what you do)
