If one had to furnish a house in whimsical, yet innovative and aesthetically pleasing decorations, the place would be covered in Josep Motas products. What other designer can craft beautiful wall tiles that are simultaneously rad to friends, yet ornate enough to impress even the most old-fashioned of mothers?
The Barcelona-based designer, who also worked under the moniker Mr. Tree, is an expert at taking unexpected motifs such as skulls and hand gestures and morphing them into repeated patterns to be used in tiles and wallpaper.
Perhaps the most shocking and playful of these Josep Motas tile creations is one entitled 'Pornstars,' which features male and female genitalia. Those curious as to what the tile pattern actually looks like should not hesitate to check it out on Motas' personal website.
