Mutina Azulej Floor and Wall Tiles Designed by Patricia Urquiola

Designed by Patricia Urquiola for Mutina, the Azulej Tile collection reinterprets traditional artisanal ceramics in a modern context. These tiles measure 20x20 cm and capture the essence of handcrafted majolica.

The Azulej collection stands out with its ingenious combination of patchwork composition, where abstract designs meet subtle, neutral tones to create a naturally irregular effect. Crafted from glazed porcelain stoneware using cutting-edge "cold digital printing" techniques, these tiles offer the robust qualities of high-tech materials for both floors and wall coverings. The inventive blend of colors gives the graphics a nearly tactile quality, resulting in a balance that appears both natural and sophisticated. With three base colors—white, grey, and black—these tiles present 27 diverse patterns that can be arranged infinitely, allowing for endless compositional freedom.

This collection is versatile enough to adorn minimalistic or highly decorated spaces, making it ideal for creating stunning flooring and wall designs. The mix and match capability inherent in the individual nine patterns per color provides countless creative possibilities—from centerpieces resembling intricate carpets to elegant decorative borders. Furthermore, the neutral-themed backgrounds blend varied tones of a single color, offering another refined solution for any environment, be it indoors or outdoors. Fully rectified and monocaliber, the Azulej Tiles exemplify a modern take on age-old craftsmanship while maintaining the handmade charm that's synonymous with high-quality design.
