Like the Dutch painter Piet<br />
Mondrian, Nassos Daphnis uses<br />
pure red, yellow and blue, seeking<br />
order and balance through<br />
geometric forms. Born in Greece<br />
in 1914, Daphnis was inspired by<br />
the perfect geometric symmetry<br />
of the Parthenon, an experience<br />
that shaped his work.<br />

Sugrañes, founder and president<br />
of Iberia Tiles.<br />
