Information
Breathable panels are a new type of natural finishing surface made from unfired clay with organic additives. They combine sustainability, innovation, and authenticity in one material.
Each panel is handcrafted. The clay is mixed using drills in drums and then air-dried under the open sky — without industrial kilns or machinery.
The panels were developed over 7 years, based on more than two decades of research by MAKHNO Studio founder Serhii Makhno. They fully align with the principles of wellness architecture:
— Promote psycho-emotional balance
— Provide natural ventilation
— Reduce the carbon footprint through the use of local materials
— Are made from non-toxic ingredients in a zero-waste production cycle
Award
Dezeen Awards 2024 Winner — Surface Design of the Year.
“This material revives ancient techniques in a contemporary context, bringing natural warmth and tactility to architectural spaces,” — noted the jury.
