Hollywood Boulevard

Pick any four 4-inch tiles — National Parks you've been to, a Smokies set, the four seasons of one place. $ for a set of , cork-backed, ready to live on the table.

Each tile ships in a kraft box, tied with cream ribbon, with a handwritten note from the studio if you'd like to add one.

Three or five different vistas, hung together — a chapter of places you've been, or want to go.

Hollywood Boulevard runs through the Hollywood district of central Los Angeles, California, between Vermont Avenue in the east and Sunset Plaza Drive in West Hollywood. The most-visited mile sits between Gower Street and La Brea Avenue, just south of the Hollywood Sign on Mount Lee.

The Walk of Fame stretches 1.3 miles along both sides of Hollywood Boulevard from Gower Street to La Brea Avenue, with three additional blocks running south on Vine Street between Hollywood Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard. It currently holds more than 2,700 brass-and-terrazzo stars and grows by roughly twenty each year.

The first permanent star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was installed in February 1960 for the actress Joanne Woodward, at 6801 Hollywood Boulevard. An earlier prototype star for the director Stanley Kramer had been laid in 1958, but the Walk's continuous installation of the original 1,558 stars ran from February to November 1960.

Anyone may nominate a person for a Hollywood Walk of Fame star, but the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce's Walk of Fame Committee selects roughly twenty honorees per year from hundreds of applications. The sponsor pays a fee of $75,000, which funds installation and the Walk's ongoing maintenance fund.

The forecourt of the TCL Chinese Theatre, completed in 1927, holds nearly 200 cement squares set with the handprints, footprints, and signatures of film stars. The first impressions were made in May 1927 by the silent-era actress Norma Talmadge, and the tradition has continued through the present.

The boulevard is open and busy all year, but late afternoon into early evening tends to be the best window for photographs of both the Hollywood Sign and the lit theatre marquees. Crowds peak during Academy Awards week each spring and on the Sunday after Thanksgiving for the Hollywood Christmas Parade.

Yes. The sign is visible looking north up several side streets between Highland Avenue and Vine Street. The clearest view is from the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue, looking north along Highland past the Hollywood and Highland complex, with the white letters reading against Mount Lee.

It's been a meaningful gift for our customers with LA ties. The boulevard is one of the city's enduring landmarks, and the tile reads warmly for someone who associates Hollywood with their first jobs in the industry, teenage memories, or weekend drives down from the Valley. A Small or Medium with a handwritten note carries well.

The Voynich stained-glass treatment of Hollywood Boulevard, with its warm marquee golds, deep boulevard blues, and pink-terrazzo accents, sits well in Maximalist, Eclectic, and Old-Hollywood-Glam interiors. It also reads against a clean dark wall in a Modern Industrial loft, where the colour pulls the eye without competing with raw concrete or black-steel finishes.

Yes. The current Old-Hollywood-Glam revival, often paired with Art Deco geometry and Maximalist colour layering, calls for one or two anchor pieces against velvet, ribbed wood, or smoked-mirror finishes. A Medium or Large tile of Hollywood Boulevard reads as the room's narrative anchor without the kitsch of a movie-poster print.

Above a standard three-seat sofa, a single Large tile reads as a focal anchor; a 4-tile Mural reads as the centerpiece of the room and a 9-tile Mural carries a tall feature wall. For a console table or a hallway runner, a Medium at eye level is the closest match.

Yes. The standard glossy finish suits framed wall installations in a dry room. For bathrooms, kitchens, splashbacks, or any vertical install near water, order the same artwork in the Dura Satin or Matte finish, which is scratch-resistant and humidity-stable. The colour and Voynich detail carry across all three finishes.

Microfibre cloth and water, in slow circles. The colour lives in the surface beneath a thin glossy finish, so it does not lift or fade with normal cleaning. Skip abrasive pads, citrus cleaners, and bleach. For a kitchen splashback in the Dura Satin finish, a damp cloth followed by a dry one is the studio's preferred routine.

Yes. The Hollywood Boulevard tile is painted in the studio's signature Voynich stained-glass and alcohol-ink visual language, then slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure. There is no licensing of third-party photography or art behind it, and no two tiles leave the studio without final hand-finishing.
