The original texture of unglazed terracotta tiles
The interior of the building is a natural state of “no design”, simply continuing the same color paint of the building facade, which is the same kind of raw material as ceramic tiles, building the inner relationship between the product and the building space, also extending the artistry of the space, and enhancing the connection between the building and the land, just like a pure canvas, allowing nature to drift, creating a different expression every day. Every day is a different expression, creating an unimaginable beauty.
As one of the most common building materials, terracotta bricks have been used throughout the long history of architecture and have penetrated into human life, while architects have improved them to meet economic, ecological and architectural needs, creating a modern look for bricks!
Terracotta brick is the most traditional of masonry materials. Its tradition leads many people to overlook its own beauty, but in fact, for designers, every actual element in nature has its own texture, and bricks are no exception. Their slightly rough texture makes them seem to jump out from the pulse of history, with a sense of the vicissitudes of time.
As a part of the building, unglazed terracotta tiles can do a certain complement and variation to the space of the building, and this variation may be adding to the richness of the space, or the beauty of the material with the staggering of different materials, or the modernity of combining light and shadow.
Of course, in addition to being part of the architecture, unglazed terracotta tiles can also form a unique form of architectural space. This form forms more of an aesthetic sense of space. “The architect’s duty is to bring each brick back to its own place; the architect is not living his own dream, but helping the bricks to fulfill theirs.” Louis Kang once said so. Although it sounds too much literary, it illustrates on the other hand that the figure of the designer is to play the role and beauty of the material, and the brick is the same.
