Void collection is a celebration of hand-pressed terracotta that pushes the boundaries of material reduction and soft forms. By emphasizing light, shadow, and texture, the collection embraces the unique imperfections resulting from artisanal craftsmanship. Each piece in the collection is manually crafted on order, comprising both tiles and 3D elements.

The tiles, with their minimalist design, offer a myriad of geometric patterns and compositions. Optional glazing provides a smooth finish, making them suitable for various spaces, including wet areas. The larger 3D elements serve a dual purpose, functioning as brick-like structural components for both indoor and outdoor applications. Notably, the collection prioritizes slow production and reduced material use, resulting in the creation of deep, soft curves and voids that maintain the strength of a structural element.
