Bussoga - Side table - Ceramic, Iron, Wood - Taula Porca

Contemporary Pink Coffee Table Pig-Shaped in Hand-Cut Ceramic Tile by Bussoga Taula Porca — Pink Pig-Shaped Coffee Table in Hand-Cut Ceramic Tile by Bussoga Taula Porca is a whimsical yet meticulously crafted coffee table in the shape of a pig, fully clad in hand-cut pink ceramic tiles. This standout piece is part of an ongoing animal-shaped furniture collection by Bussoga, a Barcelona-based design studio known for its experimental use of ceramics and tile. While Bussoga traditionally uses screen-printed ceramic tiles in mural and pattern work, this collection embraces a new method: smooth tile cladding. Each tile is individually shaped using pliers, diamond discs, and tips, resulting in a textured, sculptural surface that merges craftsmanship, humor, and surrealist influence. Originally inspired by rural iconography, the Taula Porca is part of a series that includes pigs, sheep, cows, sharks, and crocodiles. The project debuted as part of the Madrid Design Festival 2024, where Bussoga was featured among a new wave of “rural designers.” About the Designers: Bussoga is a ceramic and design studio led by Irina Grosu and Josep Motas, rooted in Catalonia. Their work blends mathematics, surrealism, and social commentary to reimagine ceramic traditions in bold, contemporary ways. With an ethos grounded in ecological responsibility and anti-consumerist critique, Bussoga’s projects bridge the gap between art, craft, and design. They frequently collaborate with renowned brands and are known for revitalizing tile folklore with playful forms and experimental surfaces, advocating for democratic, meaningful living through design.
