- Ceramic sandCeramic sand explores the question what the effect of sand is on the colour and structure of ceramic pieces. Using various kinds of sand from various places, designer Marin Jansen experimented with adding sand to clay. In addition, she also used sand to make glaze. The same sand added in a glaze but fired in different ways (oxidation, 1260 C, reduction and oxidation 1050 C) gives different results.
- bios.antibacterial ceramicsThe bios.antibacterialceramics slabs have antibacterial properties in the full mass. During processing, to the ceramic material mineral particles are added, that generate a highly effective antibacterial reaction. The bactericide action remains unchanged in time; no light is needed to enable it. The tiles can be supplied in natural, polished and glazed versions.
- Corten Ceramic TileThe Corten ceramic tiles by Tau have the look of a Cortenz steel panel. As opposed to actual steel, these ceramic tiles do not corrode any further and the corrosion does not wash out on other surfaces, such as windows.
- Ceramic museum wins Co-Creation AwardA radical looking museum extension finished with ceramic tiling has won this year’s Materia Co-Creation Award. The prize goes out to the best collaborative…
- 3D Printed Urban Ceramics 4D TileThe 4D Tile is an innovative 3D printed ceramic tile conceived as a 4D building element, designed to interact over time with water, climate, and living nature. Measuring 8x8 cm and crafted in durable stoneware ceramic, its sculptural geometry is engineered to capture rain and retain ambient moisture, creating ideal conditions for local moss to thrive.
- Circular CeramicsCircular Ceramics designed by Sara Howard in collaboration with Kevala Ceramics, focuses on designing a new way of consuming that reduces the harm inflicted on our planet and preserves our natural resources - without compromising on design. This collection's clay body is made from 100% waste, sourced from Kevala's factory wastewater treatment system. The glaze is engineered from industrial stone manufacturing slurries and consumer glass waste sourced from Bali's rivers.

- Ceramic surfaceThis ceramic range of panels is based on the idea of creating surfaces that have the delicacy of fired glazes. The tactile appeal of the surfaces is designed to engage the user to try and determine how the material has been created as closer inspection shows that the depth of the design is not a paint effect but a solid surface. Solomon and Wu loves the idea of investigating the possibilities with designers.
