Terrazzo collection
Inspired both from the traditional Italian terrazzo’s marble pattern, along with the famous Portuguese marble cake, the Amorim Wise Terrazzo Capsule collection recreates that crafty feeling in an entirely recycled cork flooring.
In the first meeting, to present proposals for a new flooring pattern, to all departments and management of Amorim Cork Flooring, we presented images of marble cake, chocolate salami and cookie cake, along with some moodboards of italian terrazzos. From then, the patterned sweets were stuck in our minds and Francisca Branco, João Xará and Paulo Sellmayer spent the next semester fine-tuning the recipe in partnership with the factory's production management.
In a synesthetic creative process, we related sensibilities with hues and, with the collaboration of Amorim’s resident designer Ana Fernandes, we arrived at the final palette. The collection is made of 8 different and versatile designs, from the greenish Element Mint to the orange Twist Terracotta. A collection that brings together a sweet tooth universe, the sense of Italian tradition, and the warm feeling of cork.
