INGENIOUS, INTUITIVE, AND EMPOWERING
Stunning New Walker Zanger Web Site Offers Revolutionary Tools To Its Clients


Sylmar, Calif., February 7, 2007—WALKER ZANGER’s exquisite tile, stone and bathroom furniture products are visual and tactile design elements: while they capture a look, they also invite the touch. Allowing designers to work with a large set of collections—to see them, to feel them, to organize them into meaningful subsets—has always been a technical challenge outside of an actual showroom. Now, however, WALKER ZANGER has employed innovative new thinking to this age-old challenge, the result of which is the company’s new, state-of-the-art Web site, www.walkerzanger.com.

Unlike traditional sites which work solely on a point-and-click basis, the new WALKER ZANGER Web site provides a complete virtual workshop, in which designers can choose, examine, organize, make notes, and find inspiration, all in one place. From its products, to its marketing, and now to its Web site, WALKER ZANGER is leading the way in elegance and technology.

Despite its newfound technical sophistication, the new WALKER ZANGER Web site is intuitively designed. This makes it even more rewarding to use, as it invites the visitor to try out its many new tools. For example, the entire WALKER ZANGER catalog (still available in print as an impressive tome) is now online, cross-referenced for those who have a hard copy at hand. It is easy to view complete collections and it is equally easy to actually zoom in on specific samples, as if they were being held.

In addition, the site creates a unique experience for each visitor. For example, customization tools make it possible to crop specific products, and bookmark certain areas, which are saved on the user’s computer for future visits. There is even a revolutionary new “My Notepad” feature, which, as its name implies, allows the visitor to add comments, flag areas of interest, and create a virtual inspiration file online, ready for saving or printing.

In addition to featuring all the products in the printed catalog, the online catalog is continuously updated with the very latest WALKER ZANGER products and breaking news. For example, the new Web site features detailed tear-sheet information and vivid imagery of the new Bathroom Vanity Collection, the Sobu Collection of bamboo mosaic tiles and the leather-like porcelain tiles in the luxurious Matouche Collection.   
Finally, it includes a convenient Showroom and Dealer Locator, replete with Google maps for easy navigation.
