arquitecturasceramicas is a collection of texts published by the Cátedra Cerámica Valencia with the aim of enriching knowledge about the application of ceramic in architecture. This initiative, which was born after two years of work at the Valencia school, perpetuates the idea that ceramics is material in constant evolution. It is a living and current material that is committed to the continuous research of new uses and applications, offering enormous creative and functional possibilities.
This first volume of arquitecturasceramicas includes one article on the figure of the ceramist Llorens Artigas and another on project theory written by Paul Rand. A Third text analyses the strategies for using ceramic coverings today and lastly, the projects developed by the students during the Envolventes workshop are compiled. This reflects all the effort and enthusiasm of the participants in the various activities of the Network of Ceramic Tile Studies Departments promoted by ASCER. As an epilogue, it includes the photographs and comments made about La Ricarda, the work of Antonio Bonet, by those who had the opportunity to visit it.
