NANCHOW cement tile 2012-2017

见南花年度砖

手工水泥花砖作为一种建筑装饰材料,制作工艺传承已超过百年。

2012年,见南花从零开始独立研究重建传统水泥花砖工艺。在三个月的理论研究与准备后做出了第一片水泥花砖,虽然完全不可应用,但正式标记着见南花砖工艺的原点。

水泥花砖的技术重建是一个缓慢的过程。在正式开始研发后的一年里,我们在原材料组成配比与工艺实验中不断地发现新的问题与挑战,并在解决的过程中逐步完善我们的工艺基础。经过4年的持续技术研发,见南花终于重新完整掌握传统水泥花砖制作工艺,一片为2016设计上海制作的砖,标记着见南花砖工艺的新起点。

在完整掌握传统水泥花砖制作工艺的基础上,我们仍然持续探索材料和技法上的无限可能,利用新时代的材料与技术进行新的尝试,尝试突破传统工艺的局限,持续提升水泥花砖的品质。同时以新时代的观念与审美去理解水泥花砖,从水泥这种普通的材料出发,借由细致的手工技艺去创作,拓展水泥花砖在技术与艺术上的更多可能。

我们将始终以水泥花砖为介质,探索和表达生活的质与美。

As a kind of building decorative materials, the history of cement tile is over one hundred years.

NANCHOW started to study and reconstruct the technics of traditional cement tile from scratch in 2012, and this piece of cement tile was produced after three months of research and preparation, marking the origin of the NANCHOW cement tile craftsmanship formally.

Reconstructing the technics of traditional cement tile is a slow procedure. We had continuously studied the raw materials and technics of cement tile since 2012 and faced many problems and challenges, which were resolved slowly through experiments. Finally, it spent NANCHOW four years to completely reconstruct the technics of traditional cement tile. This piece of cement tile was produced specially for Design Shanghai 2016,
marking the new starting point of NANCHOW.

Based on the technics of traditional cement tile, NANCHOW will continuously explore and search with the new materials and technique, and develop new era’s sense and taste on the cement tile, devoting to enhancing the quality of cement tiles and endowing with new aesthetic values.

With the cement tiles at heart, NANCHOW endeavours to explore and express the beauty and quality of life.
