La Siesta Jug

GANDIABLASCO has revived a Spanish design icon. LA SIESTA jug revives traditional materials and textures from the Mediterranean way of life and eating, nature, light and a passion for the outdoor life, through a traditional object used to contain and drink water, but in a different way.

 

LA SIESTA is a designer jug made with artisanal methods in white terracotta, inspired by the traditional “botijos” or jugs used in the countryside, with the appearance of a plastic 1.5-litre bottle.

 

More than a designer bottle, each one is unique, because they are hand made using traditional methods. It has capacity for 1.2 litres.

 

Why not have a drink, in the best Mediterranean style?

 

LA SIESTA is a design original by Alberto Martínez, Héctor Serrano and Raky Martínez for GANDIABLASCO.

Over the last decade, this convergence of people from different disciplines through a new concept of creative space has given rise to various international projects in the areas of product design, retail, showrooms, exhibitions and stands for multinationals such as Tane, Porcelanosa, Valentine, Cosentino, Hermès, Bentley and Aston Martin.

His ongoing ties with research and creativity have resulted in international education partnerships, involving teaching in a number of higher design schools in cities like Monterrey, Caracas, Buenos Aires, Dubai, Tokyo, Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia.

His collaboration will be linked with arts projects in which the methodology will be completely practical and based on exploring new forms and languages, such as the workshops in Domaine de Boisbuchet, open to designers, architects, artists, photographers, university academics and professional exhibition curators.
