Tiles & Cladding / Specification
Product Specification
Plain-language specification for architects, designers, and specifiers — dimensions, materials, finishes, lead times, and how to enquire. Everything is made to order at the southern tip of Africa; nothing is stocked. For the studio’s editorial treatment of the system, see The Surface · Architectural Skin.
