#Satori hexagon tile series
The series recalls a number of patterns found in nature, such as honeycombs, icicle formations and plant cells, thus bringing to mind our individual experiences of the natural world. In collaboration with Mutina, Yoshioka designed tiles reminiscent of textures derived from nature, with the intention no so much to mimic these inherent patterns, but as to awaken the sensations they stir in us. Designed by Tokujin Yoshioka, the collection is consistent with many of his other works – toeing the line between industrial design and art. The Phenomenon series consists of through-body porcelain tiles (Hexagon), as well as extruded porcelain mosaics (Air, Rain, Honeycomb, Rock and Wind).
