Mutina
PLAIN TILES CHALK MATT
Porcelain stoneware wall/floor tiles
Plain-coloured backgrounds are available in four earth-inspired shades – Chalk, Clay and Mud – and in two finishes: gloss and matt.
Faces & Figures is born from the encounter between the body and clay. It is from this primordial relationship—in which clay receives the gesture, preserves its memory and returns the trace of contact—that the first collaboration between Faye Toogood and Mutina takes shape: a collection that transforms the language of sculpture into an architectural system, capable of bringing a silent and deeply human presence into space. The project stems from a material and instinctive process: dozens of models and edges worked entirely by hand, cardboard studies, clay maquettes and continuous experiments on the human figure are progressively reduced to fluid and essential forms. No longer figurative elements, but archetypes: modules capable of repeating, combining and building surfaces, walls and volumes. From this research emerges a project developed through complementary systems, each dedicated to exploring a different dialogue between the human figure and architecture.
