Sobre o projecto Talking.Tiles / About the project Talking.Tiles

Talking.Tiles’ aspiration is to build the awareness and understanding of the tile as a medium and its heritage which spreads around the world. Behind Talking.Tiles stands the design duo Alexander Amir Khan and Eva Brunner. The two textile designers adapt their knowledge of patterns, forms and colors to the tile medium. The creation of collections for specific desires follows from this.

The fascination for tiles builds the cornerstone of Talking.Tiles. Each tile contains its unique characteristics and techniques of the particular culture. Through the deep research of contexts, cultural and historical influences and the visual study, Talking.Tiles provides a holistic exploration of tiles around the world.
