Erena tableware – Utzon Can Lis – Ferm Living

The triangular shapes of Erena ceramic tableware are inspired by the Catalan chimneys of the house, characteristic of the traditional villages of Mallorca.
An old photograph of Utzon at Can Lis shows him surrounded by family and friends enjoying an informal meal, seated around a set of chairs repurposed as tables. In this scene, the monumentality of the house recedes, giving way to the experiences and memories that animate its stone walls. The essence of Can Lis is embodied not only in its architecture but in the everyday rituals that unfold within it.
The Erena Series seeks to capture the warmth and conviviality of that moment, offering a functional ceramic dinnerware set that becomes a canvas for new experiences and shared memories. Its distinctive triangulated shapes draw inspiration from the house’s Catalan chimneys, which are characteristic of traditional Mallorcan villages. Much like an archaeologist uncovering layers of a site, these details connect dining to a broader cultural and historical narrative.
In this way, the Erena Series become more than mere tableware; it serves as a conduit for experience, grounding everyday moments in a dialogue between past and present.
