架构师提供的文本描述。我们感兴趣的想法是分别展示每一个项目，与他们自己的空间，更多的关注的产品。为此，我们考虑了一个由屋顶、瓷砖等陶瓷元素组成的生态系统。日本和西班牙都有使用这种建筑元素的悠久传统，但制作方式却截然不同：日本的屋顶瓷砖是釉面的，光亮的，而地中海地区的屋顶瓷砖则是赤裸裸的，暴露了它的质地。我们对这个差异非常感兴趣，这个项目是探索这个问题的好机会。

Text description provided by the architects. We were interested in the idea of displaying each item separately, with their own space, bringing more attention to the products. For that we thought on a niche system composed by roof tile-like ceramic elements. Both Japan and Spain have a long tradition of the use of this architectural element but crafted in very different ways: roof tiles in Japan are glazed and shiny while those in the Mediterranean are left with the material naked, exposing its texture. This difference was of great interest to us and this project was a good chance to explore on this.

这些陶瓷元素，创造了壁龛，以显示项目，是非常基本的形状。就是在整个空间中重复它们，因为它们创造了复杂性。它们变成了墙壁，架子，柜台，顾客的长椅；除了这些非常简单的陶瓷元素之外，在这个空间里没有其他的存在。使用这样一种古老的传统材料，并找到新的方法来制造、塑造它，并将其单元组合起来，创造出不同的建筑元素，以满足当代生活的需要，这是令人兴奋的。

These ceramic elements, creating the niches to display the items, are very elemental in shape. Is by repeating them throughout the space that they create complexity. They become the walls, shelves, the staff counter, the customers’ bench; there is no other presence in the space besides these very simple ceramic elements. It is exciting to us to use such an old traditional material and find new ways to craft it, to shape it, to combine its units creating different architectural elements that can solve the needs of the contemporary life.
