Where the mountains touch the sky

The owners wanted to bring home the landscape they saw every day: the coastal rocks, the succulents growing among them, the warm evening light over the sea. Instead of a picture, I proposed a ceramic panel built into the terrace, part of the architecture and resistant to the salty outdoor air.

The panel was hand-painted and glazed and produced in modules in the studio, to be installed on site afterwards. The scene brings together the agaves, the rocky coast and a hoopoe — the bird that carries the first colour of the day — as the guardian of the corner.

“Where the mountains touch the sky, and the succulents grow like dreams, silence blossomed on the wall.” The panel is as decorative as it is natural: a fragment of the Castellón coast that now lives inside the house.
