The co-creators of LIVDEN tile, Georgie Smith and Hilary Gibbs, have been a part of their unique family businessâtransferring patterns and images onto natural stoneâsince their parents blended their two families when they were young. Their mom, Melinda Earl, started Stone Impressions when she patented a method for hand-printing stone tile back in the mid-90s.
