The Agave concrete basin, subtly and abstractly reflects the shapes created by the machete’s cuts on the agave leaves across their surfaces. The water stored within the agave plant is incredibly precious, but when transformed by the skilled hands of Mexican "jimadores," it gives life to something unique and world-renowned: Tequila. The craft of the jimador, specializing in the cutting and harvesting of agave, is a deeply respected tradition in Mexico, passed down from father to son for generations.

This basin is part of the collection "Una gota en la arena". This collection is born from the collaboration between ISAD, Instituto Superior de Arquitectura y Diseño, and Forma&Cemento, blending the geometric minimalism of the brand with the essence of the designers' Mexican roots. Inspired by the arid landscape of northern Mexico, the collection of concrete basins and tiles celebrates water as a precious and scarce resource, in contrast with the desert environment. Through a pure and timeless design, the collection harmonizes culture, history, and nature, reflecting attention to detail and the desire to create long-lasting and meaningful products.
