Càntir 2019 Miguel Milá

The 2019 Water Jug from the 69th Argentona Water Jug Festival

"The clay jug has taught me more than I can contribute. Today, more than ever, it is necessary that the objects be sustainable. It is better to see a broken clay jug than an abandoned plastic bottle. Therefore, my task as a designer, it has been reduced to ensuring that his use is comfortable in today's life". Miguel Milá.

Miguel Milá: A reference in contemporary industrial design

Miguel Milá has played a fundamental role in the history of modern Catalan design. His work has been based on updating tradition: several of his pieces have overcome the circumstances in which they were produced and remain valid today, "thanks to being born in a time when rigor and honesty were valued", says Milá. In 1987 he was recognized with the first edition of the Premi Nacional de Disseny and in 2008 he received the Compasso D'Oro in recognition of his professional career and his contribution to the dissemination of Catalan design abroad.
