IES Valle of the Cidacos

TRENCADÍS IN THE VALLEY

The students of 4th ESO and Baccalaureate of Arts make a beautiful trencadis. El Valle continues to decorate its facilities with this beautiful technique invented by Gaudí. In addition to our well-known entrance to the building 1 we continue to use the technique in our garden. This technique was born out of the urgency to finish the ceramic tiling of a project that had too many curves. That forced to manufacture each curved piece with the consequent loss of time and risk of breakage.. To avoid this, the use of ceramics like the Romans made of stone mosaic and breaking a tile managed to adapt to the curvature of the object. (sculpture) or the decorative detail required on the wall (and its walls weren't exactly smooth, but full of complex curved planes).
