‘ANA IBAÑEZ’ MDF plaques with an aged finish

The project

Archicercle made these MDF plaques by recessing the surface and blending paints to achieve an antique finish. The work focused on making the design and lettering stand out, with texture in the deeper areas.

Recessing the background left the lettering and motifs raised above it. The texture created in the deeper areas is part of the result: the relief is defined both by the difference in depth and by the contrast between the surfaces.

After recessing the surface, we blended different paints to create the aged finish. The piece has ochre and brown tones that complement the textured background and the outlines of the raised elements.

The plaque bears the inscription ‘ANA IBAÑEZ’ and combines lettering with graphic motifs within a rounded-corner outline. The studio’s documented contribution covers making the MDF plaques, recessing the surface and finishing them with paints.

The recessed background retains a pronounced texture, while the lettering and motifs remain raised.
