East meets West in the design of this made-in-Japan tile collection, Hinotori, which is the result of a collaboration between French designer Theophile Besson and Kyoto tile manufacturer Asada Kawara. Each tile is handmade, with traditional production methods where fine clay is polished several times before being fired. The result is a rot-proof and weather-resistant material suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The shimmery look on the tiles is reminiscent of that on roofs of traditional Japanese temples. Geometric and textural details are added to the pieces using patented screen printing technology.

The Hinot ori collection is available for order via e-mail: info@theophilebesson.com.
