Colorful, Trippy Tiles Made on a Custom-Built Machine

After a deep dive on Instagram lately, I got here throughout some jaw-dropping tile designs from Studio GdB. Gilles de Brock and Jaap Giesen, the pair behind the studio not removed from Rotterdam in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, grew to become obsessive about designing and producing their very own ceramic tiles. After not discovering something that would produce their desired finishes, the duo created their very own customized digital printer that permits for computer-controlled utility of liquid glazes. As soon as programed, their machine delivers liquid glaze instantly on ceramic tiles of their biscuit state. The outcomes are distinctive, customizable tiles in a spread of daring colours and trippy patterns that really feel nearly handmade. Due to their methods, there are limitless alternatives for patterns and colour schemes – you’ll be able to go as tame or as wild as you need! Name me formally obsessed!
