Engraved ceramic plaque for NOS Arquitectura

The project

NOS Arquitectura commissioned Archicercle to engrave a ceramic plaque. The intervention incorporated the practice’s name into the piece with a subtle result, keeping the original material at the forefront.

The plaque is rectangular, with a pale, speckled-looking surface. The composition places «nos» in large lettering with «arquitectura» beneath it at a smaller scale, creating two levels of reading on a single surface.

Archicercle’s contribution focused on engraving the piece. The inscription stands out discreetly against the ceramic and sits alongside its visible texture, without added elements.

The engraving detail reveals the relationship between the letterforms and the speckled surface.
