Stockholm 2016: German designer Konstantin Grcic's debut range of tiles for ceramics brand Mutina feature embossed patterns, and contrasting matte and gloss surfaces.
"Working at my very first collection for Mutina, I've come to value the beauty of this simple and ancient material," said Grcic, who has designed everything from a prefab cabin for Muji to a racing yacht for Hugo Boss.
"A lump of clay that becomes floor coating," he added. "The idea of matter as something composed of so many units, is really fundamental. A philosophical concept as much as a biological fact.
"The ceramic tile simply represents this: a small unit which, once multiplied, turns into something larger than the sum of its parts."
I just love this elegant but playful finish! I hope we will see more design from him.
