Sketch stage. Eleven objects, one composition — Spanish Design As A Souvenir takes shape ahead of its installation at Fuorisalone 2026
Tile of Spain returns to Fuorisalone with "Spanish Design As A Souvenir" Tile of Spain, the international promotion programme of the Spanish ceramic tile industry led by ICEX España Exportación e Inversiones and ASCER (Spanish Ceramic Tile Manufacturers' Association), will present Spanish Design As A Souvenir at Fuorisalone 2026. The installation, conceived by Madrid-based practice Codoo Studio, will be on show at the Università degli Studi di Milano — Ca' Granda (Via Festa del Perdono, 7) as part of MATERIAE, the major exhibition event organised by Interni Magazine during Milan Design Week, from 20 to 30 April 2026. Spanish Design As A Souvenir is a contemporary still life at architectural scale: eleven oversized sculptural objects, each one a reinterpretation of an iconic element of Spanish material culture — from the flamenco trivet to the Dalí-inspired lips sofa — entirely clad in ceramic tile. The project brings together 15 Spanish ceramic manufacturers, each brand assigned to one or more of the eleven pieces: Cristacer (El Salvamanteles), Vives (Las Castañuelas), Arcana (El Plato), Dune Cerámica and Harmony (El Aceite), Decocer and ECerámico (El Cenicero), Colorker (La Camiseta), Cevica (La Milán 430 and La Pajarita), Argenta and Tau Cerámica (La Bota), Apavisa, Gayafores and El Barco (El Imán), and Vidrepur (El Beso). The installation follows Tile of Spain's participation at Fuorisalone 2025 with The Light in the Darkness, designed by Viruta Lab, which attracted over 270,000 visitors at the same venue.
