MOOD is a new line of tapware designed by luis vidal + architects.

MOOD presents the essence of water. This new iconic design has been created as a fusion between simplicity and emotion. The faucet line is inspired by natural water flow and aims to reduce water consumption. These faucets stand out due to their original geometric lines, which radiate simplicity and integrity, and create an immediate sense of attraction, inviting users to interact with them. The flat spout of the faucet allows a better water flow and keeps the aerator hidden, improving the user experience.

The design takes advantage of the available technology to reduce complexity and to make daily life a little more comfortable, allowing users to enjoy their environment while, at the same time, making a responsible use of it. The digital control of the faucet has two modes: “sleep” (off) presents the product when it is not being used. A second mode, “awake” (on) activates a series of luminous icons, which invite the user to start browsing through the different options in a very intuitive way. The ‘preset’ functions (previously programmed) allow each user to customize the flow rates and temperatures for other uses.

The design has been developed to offer an intuitive, simple, and straightforward use, ensuring that the water usage adjusts to each function. The icons humanize the technical component of the interface, making the use of the faucet very easy.

Bathrooms have undergone few changes since their ‘invention’ in the 19th century. After incorporating the lavatory, they quickly evolved into a space with tiled walls and floors with porcelain toilets.

From this simple definition began a ‘process’ of bathroom design in which architects, or their clients, selected, on the one hand, the ceramic tiles for the walls and floor and, on the other hand, the accessories to be installed on both surfaces. Nowadays, sanitary lines and accessories related to them are selected from a vast range of products, thus creating a ‘pick ’n mix’ approach. Still, nonetheless, the spatial configuration has long remained unchanged.

Our concept revolves around integrating the wall surface and the embedded ceramic elements, the two critical components in the bathroom. We intend to create a small, individual space for each sanitary element: bathtub, sink, and toilet. The ceramic pieces are standard and restrained, while the auxiliary components present enormous flexibility in terms of design and optional bathroom fittings (storage, towel racks, mirrors, etc.). By developing this concept, we have found not just one solution but the key to an infinite range of options.

Therefore, our analysis has focused on the possibility of radically changing the perception and architectural composition of bathrooms. We are principally wondering if we could contribute to reinventing the product by merging the two fields in which Porcelanosa and Noken are experienced.

The mealtime has, since the beginning of humanity, been something almost sacred, a time to be with the family, to share with friends, and also an act of festivity.

The Clover Table revolutionizes the relationship between diners. Its curves bring them closer, improving the experience of dialog and conversation that accompanies meals.

The surface of the Clover Table, almost a mirror, seems to “float”, resting on shortened legs that look like old leather straps that defy the laws of gravity with their sinuous shape. Furthermore, the curved shape of the top allows a modular system, counterbalancing each other with an almost limitless layout.

AA functional chair, adaptable to any environment and made of high-tech materials.

Covered with a resilient, low maintenance cost textile, it has an ergonomic and stackable design.

Designed to furnish both public and residential spaces, with its elegant structure of chrome-plated stainless steel and its oak or upholstered shell, the RS chair stands out due to its subtlety and elegance.
