Tiles by Conie Vallese
— landscape tones in high-gloss glaze
Tiles by Conie Vallese are produced in Spain using thick red clay and finished with a liquid enamel glaze. The surface is high-gloss, with a reflective quality that enhances depth and interaction with light. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, the tiles are designed to respond to changing conditions of light, weather and time. The collection draws on island landscapes, sea and sky, stone and earth, where colour is shaped by light and exposure over time. The palette reflects tones often present in Conie Vallese’s work: pale yellow, celadon, varied blues, and darker reds and browns. These colours reference nature and landscape, while remaining consistent with the chromatic language found in her sculptures and spatial installations.
The tiles extend Conie Vallese’s material-led practice. Each piece is made by hand, and variation is an inherent part of the process. Differences in surface, tone, and glaze are retained rather than adjusted, allowing repetition to carry subtle shifts across a surface. The use of red clay provides a stable and warm base. Its density supports both saturated and pale glazes, giving colour depth without excess. The palette consists of 17 colours and one volcanic silver. The tones reference elements such as horizon, stone, vegetation, and sea, and are developed to work both individually and in combination.
Each tile is shaped, fired, and glazed by hand. Variations in glaze density, pooling, and texture occur naturally in the kiln. The glossy surface interacts directly with light, creating reflections and tonal shifts across an installation. These differences define the material expression. The collection is available in five formats, from square to elongated rectangular proportions. The formats allow for calm, continuous layouts or more structured compositions. Used in single colours or combined across the palette, the tiles are suited for walls, floors, and interior architectural surfaces in residential and hospitality contexts.
Production takes place in Spain in a workshop with generations of experience in red clay. Working directly with the raw material, the process combines established craft traditions with controlled firing methods to create a refined and consistent ceramic surface. The result is a material language shaped by hand and time, where subtle variations in colour, texture and form give each tile its own character while preserving the balance and expression of Tiles by Conie Vallese.

The collection of 18 colours is shaped by island landscapes: sea, sky, stone, and earth, where colour emerges through light and exposure over time, ranging from mineral blues and muted greens to deeper earth tones and pale hues that shift with light. Used together, the colours form compositions, reflecting the layered and irregular patterns found in nature.
Conie Vallese brings a material-driven and spatial approach to her tile collection for Blēo. In this Q&A, she reflects on modular systems, subtle variation, and how colour and surface come together to shape calm, continuous spaces.
