PuLSaTe: a unique installation by Lily Jencks and Nathanael Dorent using Marazzi’s SistemN tiles
21st March - 27th November '13
Capitol Designer Studio (CDS) has commissioned Lily Jencks and Nathanael Dorent to create a pop-up installation in Primrose Hill to show people just what’s possible using a porcelain tile.
Pulsate creates a sense of reinforced perspective and as a result will draw people into the
space.
Nathanael says: “We decided to use one system of tiles in one size and four colours. It’s just a simple herringbone pattern, but we’ve applied it in three dimensions, to create something really eye popping.”
Lily adds: “What’s fun about the SistemN is the subtle range of colour. To get the really vivid exciting pattern, we go from dark to light to dark in a gradient, like a pulsating wave, which is where the name comes from.”
The resulting space will be a ‘cultural hub.’
Nathanael says: “We had the idea of a shop not being only a functional space for consumption, but more about architecture and adventure. The floor is sloped, and benches are built into the structure, so you’re never really sure what you’re looking at. People can sit and have a discussion, lie on the slope, or view the product. We hope this will bea place where commerce will not only be about selling but about exchanging information. and nine months is long enough that things can really happen here.” a programme of events, including lectures, product launches and fashion shoots, starts with the launch event on 21st March 2013.
