Pátria Lusa Designs Contemporary Furniture from Classic Tiles

If you know Portugal heritage you know azulejos tiles.  These are the blue and white (sometimes yellow and white) tiles used to adorn everything from churches and royal palaces, to park benches and railway stations.  These classic and historic art elements are the inspiration for–and actual materials used in–a new line of contemporary furniture by Pátria Lusa.



Rather than emulating the image or design of the original azulejos mural, Pátria Lusa places the reclaimed 17th and 18th century tiles, in random modern mosaic-style.  Combining this repurposed artwork with steel or perspex creates a unique piece of art furniture.
