‘scotch club’ lights

apparatu ceramic designer xavier manosa and berlin studio mashallah design collaborate to create
experimental products. based in berlin and barcelona, ceramic designer xavier manosa is well known
for his loud and colourful hand crafted designs. mashallah design on the other hand creates products
using contemporary digital technologies and production techniques. the different processes of the two
studio’s was the beginning of their collaboration. the two communicated via fax, allowing manosa to
print out hard copies and mashallah design to keep all things digital. for two months the studios
communicated back and forth to produce the ‘superfax series’, which they will be showing at this
year’s salone satellite in milan.
