方寸之間：閱讀陶瓷構築的美學世界
Within the Square: A World of Aesthetics Shaped by Ceramic Surfaces
方寸之間，如何閱讀？當磁磚脫離了質地、花樣與防污抗刮的基礎角力，凝視陶瓷表面的視線只會更加深邃。彷彿能自裁切比例中提取古羅馬建築的黃金比例，亦或是品鑑波提切利筆下的柔美與詩意。ABK 將過去鋪陳背景肌理的建材，視為轉譯當代空間的畫布，在承載了對歷史文化的理解、與吸納時尚設計領域的創意靈光後，一躍成為主導空間敘事的主體，持續創作可供觀看與鑑賞的美學文本。
How do we read a surface? What happens when ceramic tiles are no longer judged by texture, pattern, or resistance to stains and scratches alone? Our gaze inevitably lingers longer. Within the measured proportions of each cut, one might discern the enduring harmony of ancient Roman architecture, or the delicate lyricism of Botticelli’s paintings. For ABK, ceramic tiles—once conceived merely as materials for laying background textures—become canvases for interpreting contemporary space. Carrying an understanding of history and culture while absorbing sparks of creativity from the worlds of fashion and design, they emerge as protagonists that shape spatial narratives, continuously creating aesthetic texts to be viewed and contemplated.
人類對美的覺知始於有意識的觀看，從小至一片磁磚，大至一座建築，乃至街頭流動的壁飾紋理，都能看見義大利人將其深厚的文化藝術底蘊浸潤於日常生活的體現。無論是從畫作裡汲取的靈感被製成咖啡廳裡的復古家具；還是將伸展台前沿的概念元素，轉化為擁有具體細節的圖騰語彙，對「美」的表達早已於跨界間流動與交融。而磁磚，作為一種更立體與全面的表現載體，遂成為構築全新美學世界的入口，使設計不再侷限於產品自身，而能延伸進入室內空間與生活場景之中，形塑完整且沉浸式的品牌體驗。
Humanity’s awareness of beauty begins with conscious observation. From a single tile to an entire building, or even the ever-changing ornamental textures found along the streets, one can see how deeply Italy’s rich cultural and artistic heritage is woven into everyday life. Whether inspirations drawn from paintings are transformed into vintage furniture in a café, or cutting-edge ideas from the runway are translated into graphic motifs with tangible detail, the expression of beauty has long flowed naturally across disciplines, where different forms meet and converge. As a more dimensional and comprehensive medium of expression, ceramic tile thus becomes a gateway to constructing entirely new aesthetic worlds—allowing design to move beyond the boundaries of the product itself and extend into interiors and everyday settings, shaping a complete and immersive brand experience.
ABK 對自然材質肌理的刻畫，亦不只停留於表面，而是透過千錘百鍊的技術積累，始能呈現細節與深度。自此，便開啟了重現陶瓷對金屬、塗料、壁紙、布料、木質、石材等材質質感的探索與征程。從大板製程、3D 面感、坯體 Full Body 3D 技術建立質感壁壘，使單薄的設計圖紙幻化為能真實感知的空間介面。長達 30 年對風格表現的探索，展現了ABK 受原創性驅使的熱情，也憑藉這份將不同設計語言轉譯為陶瓷藝術的能力，成為國際頂級品牌跨入美學空間時所青睞的合作夥伴。
ABK’s interpretation of natural material textures likewise goes beyond the surface, relying on decades of technical refinement to reveal depth and detail. From metal, paint, wallpaper, fabric, and wood to stone, ABK has embarked on an ongoing exploration of how the tactile qualities of these materials can be reinterpreted through ceramics. Advanced processes, including large-format production, 3D surface textures, and Full Body 3D technology, build a new depth of material expression, transforming what might otherwise remain a flat design drawing into a spatial interface that can be experienced through the senses. Thirty years of exploring stylistic expression reflect ABK’s passion for originality, while its ability to translate different design languages into ceramic art has made it a sought-after partner for leading international brands entering the realm of spatial aesthetics.
➤ 義大利建築師、設計師 Paola Navone
ABK 與 Paola Navone 的合作，是一系列大膽且充滿熱情的材料實驗。將旅途中的感性文化體驗與手工觸覺記憶，轉譯為富有生命力的陶瓷創作，猶如以材質與色彩寫詩，為空間賦予更生動的表情與細膩的情感層次。而與 Versace Ceramics 合作多年、做為全球唯一指定製造夥伴的默契，即是精湛工藝的佐證，精準掌握華美繁複的時尚元素，進入當代建築與室內生活語境，不僅止於經典符號的復刻，更展現了義式奢華美學的訂製功底。
Its collaboration with Paola Navone unfolds as a series of bold and deeply intuitive material experiments. Memories gathered through travel, tactile craftsmanship, and cultural encounters are translated into ceramic creations rich with vitality—compositions that write poetry through color and texture, lending spaces a more expressive character and nuanced emotional resonance. Equally significant is ABK’s long-standing partnership with Versace Ceramics as its exclusive global manufacturing partner. More than a demonstration of technical mastery, the collaboration translates the maison’s richly ornamental fashion language into the context of contemporary architecture and interior life, moving beyond the reproduction of iconic motifs to reveal the refined craftsmanship of Italian luxury aesthetics.
