Jali – form of decoration typical of the Indian architecture, composed by perforated rocks with an ornamental motif, translated as grid – is a simple and functional terracotta brick with delicate shapes, conceived to build structures and decorative furnishings of various kind. The collection features a three-dimensional element in the size 24x12x24 cm, produced by extrusion, available in three colours: Neutro, the natural version, Nero and Bianco, with a glossy finish.
Jali by Patricia Urquiola
Jali can be placed in residential and commercial spaces, indoor and outdoor, and it has been conceived to play with installation as much as possible. The bricks have a modular geometry and can be placed both vertically and horizontally, or combining the two poses, in line or in staggered positions. The infinite solutions allow to create dynamic compositions, architectural elements and furnishings, overcoming the two-dimensional quality of surfaces.
Patricia Urquiola
Patricia Urquiola, Spanish architect and designer, but Italian at heart, joined the Mutina team in 2008. She designed numerous collections, including Déchirer, Bas-Relief, Azulej, Tierras, Déchirer XL, Celosia, El Lobo, Mater, Chamotte e Jali.
“Jali is a perforated rock, an architectural micro grid typical of Indian architecture, with geometrical or floral motifs. For Mutina, I have designed a 3D object inspired by this element: a versatile yet rigorous presence, simple and poetic. Jali can be placed in many different ways: both vertically and horizontally, in line or in staggered positions, creating dynamic filters, architectural elements as well as real furniture.”
