Ceramic Narratives Symposium

Uncategorized

This event will present innovative trends in contemporary architectural ceramics production.

Major advances in ceramics engineering and craftsmanship have opened new routes for innovation, triggering the re-emergence of ceramics as a sensory and culturally inspiring material in architecture. This event will present innovative trends in contemporary architectural ceramics production, with a major focus on the Spanish ceramic tile sector, by bringing together some of the most prominent international minds connected to ceramic design and production.

This evening symposium, the third in a series, intends to spark a discussion around the multiple attributes of ceramics as a versatile and phenomenological architectural material.
