“The largest national park in the Canadian Rockies, more than 11,000 square kilometres of peaks, glaciers, and dark sky. The Icefields Parkway runs south to Banff, past the Athabasca Glacier. Maligne Lake sits an hour east of town, with Spirit Island at the far end. The town of Jasper is rebuilding after the 2024 wildfire. The mountains, as ever, kept going. — from the studio
Each tile is finished by hand in our Knoxville studio. Artwork is slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, and rests beneath a thin glossy finish. The colour lives in the surface, not on top of it.

Jasper National Park covers 11,000 square kilometres of the Canadian Rockies in western Alberta, making it the largest of the four mountain parks. Established in 1907, it forms part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks UNESCO World Heritage Site, joined with Banff, Yoho, and Kootenay. The Icefields Parkway connects Jasper south to Lake Louise; the Athabasca and Columbia glaciers sit at the shared boundary. The town of Jasper, on the Athabasca River, is the only townsite inside the park.
Jasper was designated a Dark Sky Preserve in 2011 — the second-largest accessible dark sky preserve in the world. The annual Dark Sky Festival in October draws astronomers and photographers to the Athabasca River valley. On clear nights the Milky Way reads directly overhead from Pyramid Lake and Maligne Lake. Aurora activity reaches Jasper several nights a month between September and April.
Summer (late June through early September) brings the warmest days and full access to Maligne Lake and the Skyline Trail. Larch turn the last week of September. Winter shuts the high backcountry but opens Marmot Basin for skiing and the Maligne Canyon ice walk. The July 2024 wildfire burned roughly a third of the structures in the townsite; the surrounding park remains open, with rebuilding ongoing through 2026.
