Focussing on the warmth and simplicity of terracotta as a material, Rui Pereira has created a tableware collection that is simultaneously contemporary and rooted in an ancient sense of artisanship. Featuring a tactile rolled-edge detail and generous proportions, the Barro Plates are exceptionally pleasurable to use, enhancing your dining tables with bold, glossy colours. Produced by HAY, the collection is designed to be mixed and matched, creating a riotous landscape of striking tones across your kitchen and dining spaces.
Rui Pereira is a nomadic designer and researcher from Portugal. Having lived and worked in Valencia, Milan and Copenhagen, Pereira has developed a clear and incisive design language that results in beautiful yet functional products.
Pereira has collaborated with a variety of brands and designers, including visionary Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola and Japanese designer Ryosuke Fukusada. He currently works for Danish design powerhouse HAY as design and visual direction manager.
