# Hand-Painted Kitchen Ceramics Mateus and Sam Baron Design a Series of Subtle Ceramic Objects By Amy Duong | Published 2018-08-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sam-baron References: [sambaron.fr](https://www.sambaron.fr/) Swedish design label Mateus introduces a new range of [hand-painted handmade ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gathered-collection) in collaboration with French designer Sam Baron and Costas Voyatzis. The collection is comprised of a selection of plates, a bowl, a series of cups, and a jug. The highlighting element of the collection is the subtle color and sleek design language that all the [kitchen ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-of-tangible-spaces) boast. The new range pays homage to the label's quarter of a century creating ceramics, so it takes it back to what looks like a raw form of the material to highlight its beauty. The [color and unglazed texture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matter-collection) align with the overall theme -- as it still eludes a contemporary design while spotlighting its raw appeal.
