Oscar & Izzy

How did Oscar & Izzy get started? In late 2009 ABC’s Extreme Makeover Home Edition approached Philadelphia-based designer Amy Mescia with a challenge: to help breathe life into the kitchen of a young mother whose husband had passed away literally as she was delivering their first baby. Amy’s task was to create a bold and spirited backsplash that instantly brightens and enlivens the space. The result was so gratifying and the response such a hit that Amy soon decided to make these (and more!) tiles available to the public.
