French publication Art & Décoration highlights our Vélez collection
The magazine's supplement Dossier Carrelages gives a shout out to our designer terracotta floors
It is always a reason for joy when specialized media takes an interest in one of our fired-clay pieces, which only intensifies when said media is international. It’s the case of the prestigious French publication Art & Décoration, whose eye was caught by one of our exclusive design pieces.
Revisited terracotta; the colorful headline about our fired clay floors
We thought we knew everything about terracotta, until this surprise came from Spain is the start of the piece that highlights todobarro’s product. A young brand is reinventing this millennia old material with fantasy-filled designs. We couldn’t be more flattered. One of our designs caught their attention with particular force:
Vélez is a collection design for todobarro by the local studio LEBLUME, which the French publication highlighted on their specialized supplement
The Vélez collection -in the picture, the Vélez-Noria floor- was designed for todobarro by LEBLUME, the Málaga-based studio run by Damián López. The intention set by LEBLUME from the get go was to develop a geometrically curved language that broke the predominance that straight lines had in todobarro’s catalogue up until that point.
The collection features eleven different and combinable tessellations that claim the Axarquía’s vernacular architecture’s geometry through groundbreaking design in neo-artisanal fired-clay floors. It is available in salmon, rust red and straw colors.
Their collections play with contrast through shape (each one more original that the one before), and through color (three tones of raw earth and the possibility of glazing) is the compliment the piece pays us before its end. Currently the online publication is unavailable, but interested readers can download this PDF where they’ll find our praised Vélez-Noria floor on the second page.
