Hydraulic tile factory founded in 1933 in Campos. Of more than 100 workshops on the island, she was almost alone; manufactured cement elements for Can Lis and Can Feliz de Utzon. Biel Huguet (grandson, architect) relaunched the tile and opened the brand to collaborations: according to Homo Faber, Herzog & de Meuron, David Chipperfield, Barozzi Veiga, Carme Pinós, Lluís Clotet, Martínez Lapeña-Torres, Alfredo Häberli, Patricia Urquiola, Sybilla, Sergison Bates, Caruso St John... Today he also makes terrazzo, sinks, facades and furniture.
File focused on the design case (trade + authors). If there is a workshop file in `../talleres-y-productores/`, link.
