About Madonna Colleccion de Cairèls
La colleccion de cairèls Madonna tradusís las estructuras de las plegaduras dels retables del sègle XV dins un sistèma modular de relèu ceramic. Per mejan d'una geometria contrarotlada e d'un empilatge de colors calibrat, los plecs pintrats dels teissuts se transfòrman en superfícias tridimensionalas amb una prigondor tactila. Cada cairèl se pòt virar e combinar per generar de composicions variadas e non repetitivas suls murs, suls sòls o suls plafonds. Los detalhs de lusor metallica e los efièches de vernís reactiu introdusísson una riquesa cromatica, en permetent al lengatge visual istoric d'operar dins de contèxtes arquitecturals contemporanèus.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Madonna is a modular ceramic tile collection translating 15th-century Madonna drapery into calibrated relief. Symbolic painted folds become structured physical depth. The rotational geometry enables controlled non-repetition across small and large surfaces, functioning as architectural structure rather than ornament. The system creates directional movement and allows scalable application across interiors.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 300 x 300 mm
- Tags
- tile, pattern, Ornament, Ceramic, Renaissance
- Production Technology
- Production combines high-pressure press-molding to generate calibrated 3D relief replicating drapery folds, followed by HD digital inkjet printing for chromatic fidelity to 15th-century iconography. Select areas receive third-fire luster application (or PVD metallization) for permanent metallic gold accents. Reactive glaze layering creates controlled oxidation effects, producing an aged patina with depth and surface tactility.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was translating sacred iconography into contemporary ceramic without losing its dignity or becoming decorative imitation. Historically, folds in icons are symbolic, not naturalistic. Converting this painted illusion into structural relief required balancing authenticity with manufacturability. Limited glaze behavior, metallic firing constraints, and repeat-pattern logic demanded constant recalibration between art history and industrial feasibility.
- Research
- Historical visual research. Objective: translate 15th-century Madonna icon drapery into a modular ceramic system adaptable to modern interiors. Methodology: comparative analysis of icon paintings focusing on color layers, fold geometry, and compositional rhythm. Tools: archival study, chromatic mapping, 3D modeling. Experiments tested fold positioning and rotation. Result: a non-repetitive surface system. Insight: sacred color logic can inform contemporary design. Impact: bridges heritage and scalable interior production.
- Inspiration
- The project was developed after extensive visual research of 15th-century Madonna icon paintings, focusing on the way drapery, color gradients, and layered folds were rendered. I studied multiple variations of fabric depiction to understand their geometric logic and chromatic structure. The tile design translates these historical folding patterns into a contemporary ceramic surface, preserving the rhythm and tonal depth characteristic of early Renaissance garments.
- Project Duration
- September 2025
- Operation Flow
- Each tile is designed to be rotated and combined in multiple positions, allowing endless pattern variations. One module can create a subtle surface, while a full set produces complex, flowing compositions. This system prevents visual repetition, so a space can feel different from every angle. The same pattern logic extends to wallpaper, textiles, and upholstery, creating a cohesive yet dynamic interior language.
