Mutina Italian ceramic tiles collections: art and design, architecture, culture and literature

Mutina derives from the natural need to urge top designers to bring their ideas, for the first time, to the world of ceramic covering materials. Mutina is a design project developed by a heterogenous team that shares the same unique vision. The collaboration with Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, Nathalie Du Pasquier, Konstantin Grcic, Hella Jongerius, Laboratorio Avallone, OEO Studio, Raw Edges, Inga Sempé, Patricia Urquiola and Tokujin Yoshioka sprang from a friendship and a huge sense of mutual respect, as well as from the challenge of experiencing the endless range of textures and colours, spacing from delicate and neutral shades to the most bold and vibrant ones. These features, together with a never-ending effort to bring out the best in ceramic material, are the origin of the Mutina concept, which – beyond any evolution and interpretation – has developed a strong, recognisable identity, also thanks to the essential high quality of the product: innovative yet perfectly balanced and inviting, a product to reach out and touch.
