Ameri'ca and Jason Tickle have both worked in creating places and inspiring pieces for more than half of their lives. Their love of thoughtful design is reflected in the details and craftsmanship of their projects. Moved by uncommon materials and an idea of responsibility for community, as well as environment, their designs reflect those desires and aesthetically create a subtle balance of nature and joy. With a background in sculpture and public art, Ameri'ca brings creative approaches to site specific needs through design and art installation for commercial or residential spaces. From water features and custom architectural elements, to re envisioning existing places, Ameri'ca's knowledge of materials and process allow limitless options to create elements that bring whimsy and inspiration to clients. For more than two decades Jason has worked in all aspects of the commercial real estate industry. This hands on background has helped develop a unique approach to place making; balancing long term sustainability ethics with the short term financial goals of clients. Jason's open approach to possibilities is fueled by his knowledge and success... that combination allows forward thinking concepts, backed by experience. Every project is approached as a unique opportunity to create something remarkable. Together, their creative energy and experience allows them to bring their clients' grandest ideas to life.
Tickle Creative is committed to creating places that nourish the human spirit and reflect the intimate scale of our lives and families. As an independent design and development company based on Alabama’s Eastern Shore, our projects embrace the ideas of a time when people mattered and communities were built on core principles and way of life. We celebrate environmental sustainability, biophilic design, and new urbanism sensibilities that matter to our mental and physical well-being. Our mission is always to be respectful of the past, aware of the present and responsible for our impacts on the future.
