Patricia Urquiola's Azulej Tile Collection





I'm a simple girl.  {You'll usually find me wearing black, grey, white or denim.}  In the design world, I tend to recommend my clients keep rooms with high renovations costs i.e.; kitchens & bathrooms, more neutral and and add pops of colour, texture and patterns in more easily changeable {small} items and accessories.  So... I have even surprised myself with my obsession with something as "permanent" as geometric patterned tiles.  
When I travelled through Europe in my early 20's I fell in love with the patterns and colours of cities like Barcelona and Istanbul.  The Blue Mosque in Istanbul with it's intricately painted tiles had me in awe!  In those days, it was difficult {and often unfitting} to bring this style home.  Kind of like returning to Canada, from Thailand, in February, wearing fishermen pants and flip-flops. {Guilty!} 
Over the last few years, the style has made it's way into more contemporary interiors and I'm lovin' it!  The addition of a few of these bad boys in an otherwise clean and simple space can look stunning and add a beautiful pop!  
This new Azulej Collection designed by Patricia Urquiola is now available at Ramacieri Soligo  here in Montreal.
Get em' while they're hot!
