DECOCER presented an emblematic space titled ‘Echoes of the Earth’ at Cersaie, the international ceramics and design fair In Bologna. Designed by architect Héctor Ruiz Velázquez, the stand served as a material manifesto championing the expressiveness, sustainability, and versatility of small formats, says the company.
Decocer says its latest innovations demonstrate how ceramics can evolve from a simple covering to a structure, space, and narrative. The pavilion, 65sq m in size, emerges from a large, open ceramic mass in an organic and human gesture that invites visitors to enter. Three monumental cylinders, inspired by tree trunks and constructed entirely of small-format pieces, create an immersive journey where the material guides the movement, says the company.
Featured collections
The collections that Decocer presented at CERSAIE, are described by the company to stand out for their material, expressive, and contemporary style, where small formats become a powerful architectural resource.
It adds: ‘Reliefs, textures, and intense glazes interact with colour palettes ranging from timeless neutrals to deep, vibrant tones. Each collection transforms ceramics into a versatile language that bridges tradition and modernity’.
Cubik
Geometry, relief, and colour in 7.5x30cm format. Combines pieces with geometric reliefs in matte and glossy finishes alongside smooth bases. It’s colour palette-from neutrals to intense shades like Wine, Forest, and Black allows for dynamic and sophisticated compositions, says Decocer.
