I like to have stories attached to my designs.
The sunset tiles are inspired by sunsets and holidays. There are steps to the pool, sunset and horizons.
The cat tile is more elaborate. It tells the story of the life cycle and natures part in it. Sun, rain, growth, life and death (cat/bird). It’s designed to interlink, creating an endless pattern.
The tiles are hand-made by one of the last men on earth who can use this method in Turkey.
I infiltrated Ottotiles during the pandemic, I purely just rang up Damla to tell her I had designed some tiles on a whim and that I loved her work, let’s work together.
She saw it as an opportunity and gave me a challenge. We continue to work together in a mutually satisfying relationship that benefits us both.
