TILES : Design Collection
3D . Tally

Tally is a terracotta brick created by extruding a square divided into longitudinal sections. Designed by Michael Anastassiades, it is conceived as a three-dimensional reinterpretation of Fringe-the first ceramic collection that he made for Mutina. The individual components can be assembled horizontally, vertically, or in a combination of both, generating an infinite series of unique configurations. Tally joins the family of Bricks, a project that Mutina has been pursuing for several years regarding the use of ceramic material for developing three-dimensional elements designed for constructing partition walls, decorative elements, and exclusive furnishings. The name derives from "Tally marks," a counting system that uses groups of four vertical lines crossed by a fifth diagonal line. Similarly, Tally adds predefined groups of lines to create a single arrangement, which can be extended in any direction and configuration.
