Tubądzin is a Polish ceramic manufacturer with over forty years of production history. But more than its longevity, what distinguishes its most recent output is a deliberate choice: to build collections as acts of collaboration, working with artists, designers and illustrators who bring to the ceramic surface languages born elsewhere, far removed from conventional bathroom or interior design. Five new collections, five distinct voices, one programme that turns the tile into a field of dialogue between art and architecture. The most radical case is Modular_Glitch, designed by Łukasz Nawer Habiera, a multidisciplinary artist and architect regarded as one of the pioneers of Graffuturism. Broken lines, digital interference, fragmented rhythms: a visual language Habiera has developed for decades at the intersection of graffiti, abstraction and futurist imagery, exhibited in Tokyo, Los Angeles, London and Berlin. Translated into ceramic, that language becomes an open modular system in which individual elements combine freely to generate endless compositional possibilities. The freedom is not only aesthetic, it is projective. Dorota Koziara, Polish-Italian designer, interior architect and curator of exhibitions dedicated to international design, contributes two collections. Cielo e Terra draws from the natural landscapes of Central Europe; Masovia engages with the traditions of the eponymous Polish region, transforming a specific cultural memory into contemporary pattern. Malwina Konopacka, sculptor and designer known for a playful approach to form, brings soft colours and a polka-dot motif that has become her distinctive mark. Maciej Zień, a key figure in Polish fashion, pursues in the Holiday and Lounge collections a balance between delicacy and timelessness, evoking the atmosphere of major European cities. Rafał Olbiński, one of Poland's most internationally recognised illustrators and graphic artists, introduces a suspended atmosphere of mystery and imagination through ambiguous symbols that push the ceramic surface toward the territory of art. Alongside the new proposals, Tubądzin's more established production is represented by collections such as Patagonia Naturale, Groove and Echo, where texture, light and detail build interiors of timeless character. A collaboration programme with the worlds of art and design that Tubądzin has developed over time as its own identity, positioning itself as a ceramic company that views contemporary design as a territory of cross-contamination.
Five artists, one surface: Tubądzin brings ceramics to the boundary between design and artistic language
Graffuturism, Masovian traditions, Central European landscapes, illustration and fashion: five collections through which the Polish manufacturer builds a collaboration programme between ceramics and art, redefining the relationship between surface, authorship and inhabited space.
