THE MATERIAL.

Prestigious names in architecture and contemporary art are rediscovering the value, also symbolic, of a very ancient material that brings together water and earth, sustainability and the desire for innovation. Accompanied by the rediscovery of all natural materials that respect the environment and enhance it, modern design revisits traditional elements and gives new life to terracotta in architecture, landscape and art.
