about us
A little pieces of tiles blossom on the wall.
一片片小小的瓷磚，在牆上開了花。
The character “爿” pronounced as “pan”, is the ancient character of “wall.” Tiles are like flowers blooming on the wall, representing people’s impressions of home and showcasing the common aesthetic of Taiwan.
「爿」音「半」 ，是「牆」的古字，瓷磚就像是一片片開在牆上的花，它代表了人們對家的印象，展現了屬於臺灣的常民美學。
Traditional Tile Patterns in Taiwan
臺灣傳統瓷磚圖鑑
pan pan hua began in 2013. We collected and documented tile patterns from old houses across Taiwan, we converted the photographed tiles into digital patterns, compiling them into a book “Traditional Tile Patterns in Taiwan”, which we open source on Flickr for creators in various fields.
爿爿花源於2013年，我們在全臺各地蒐集、紀錄老房子上的瓷磚樣式，將拍攝的照片重新繪製成數位圖樣，集結成一本「臺灣傳統瓷磚圖鑑」，在Flickr上以開源的方式提供給各領域的創作者自由運用。
Handcraft tile project
老瓷磚復刻計畫
Through years of research, we have found that the mosaic tile, once-thrivingin Taiwan, ceased production nearly half a century ago. Neither tile factories nor construction material suppliers offer similar products anymore, resulting in a gradual loss of Taiwan’s architectural identity. This prompted us to launch a project to revive the old tiles.
在多年的研究過程中，我們發現臺灣過去隨處可見的拼花馬賽克磚已停產了將近半個世紀，磁磚廠，建材行也無法購買到類似的產品，臺灣的建築逐漸失去了自己的樣貌，讓我們決定開啟老瓷磚的復刻計畫。
Inspired by traditional Taiwanese tiles, we’ve created a unique handmade tile-making process. Our designs are based on analysis of glazes, shapes, and materials, elevating the craftsmanship and creativity of the tiles.
We offer small-batch, diverse customization services, allowing tiles to transcend the realm of construction and integrate into home decor, installation art, cultural education, and other areas, enriching people’s lives with a multifaceted approach.
受臺灣傳統磁磚的啟發，我們創造了一種獨特的手工瓷磚製作工藝。我們的設計是基於對釉料、造型和材料的分析，提升瓷磚的工藝價值和創作性。
我們提供少量、多樣的客製化服務，讓瓷磚超越建築範疇，融入居家裝飾、裝置藝術、文化教育等領域，以多元面向豐富人們的生活。
