All of the pieces are adorned with [reconfigurable magnetic tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balera-collection) and it was presented to the public during Dutch Design Week. The capsule is comprised of three designs which are made in collaboration with Dutch ceramics firm Cor-Unum. All of the products have a steel skeleton that is finished in custom handmade tiles held by magnets.

The co-founder of Studio Rens, Renee Mennen speaks about the design process to Dezeen, sharing "The magnets click into a system so that you can build whatever you want. "We push and pull glaze over the tiles so that each one is unique. The furniture merges functionality with a striking visual presence." One of the main pieces in the collection is Big Dining -- this is a dining table at a low-slung silhouette adorned with geometric structures and patterns that reflect paint-like strokes.
