The MEWA tiles are decorative concrete tiles whose shape was inspired by a simple paper puzzle. They link the traditional quality and uniqueness of handmade products with modern design, shape and innovative technology. Each tile is unique, made one at a time time. So the product gains an individual character while at the same time upholding the tradition of distancing ornamentation from mass production and placing it nearer to artistic handicraft and fine arts. There is a visible and tangible precision execution. The surface of each tile collapses creating a subtle play of light and shadow.

Warssawa was set up in 2015 by Polish architect Adam Ankiewicz, who is also credited with several award winning design projects. The brand name is a word play on the architect's home town Warsaw. Years of working as an architect, fulfilling his visions and realizations, led him to discover his internal need to create regional artistic craftwork. To alter his career path Adam completed courses in cement technology organized by the Polish Cement Association together with the Faculty of Materials Science and Ceramics at the AGH University of Science and Technology in Cracow. He set up Warssawa and now creates products of the highest quality with respect to their design and technology.

Warssawa was set up in 2015 by Polish architect and the brand creator Adam Ankiewicz, who is also credited with several award winning design projects. The brand name is a word play on the architect's home town Warsaw, the capital of Poland. The idea to make handmade tiles came about quite quickly and the company was allowed to develop thanks to EU funding. Warssawa launched its flagship project, the MEWA tile, at the start of 2016. When still just a prototype the MEWA qualified for the final of the "Mlodzi na Start" (eng. youth on the starting block) competition organized by ELLE Decoration in Gdynia, Poland. The tiles had their official premiere at the 100% Design fair in London in 2016. As a finalist of the competition "Wystawiajmy sie 2016" (eng. let's exhibit 2016) the project was supported by Culture.pl (an initiative ran by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute). MEWA was also noticed by experts at the Institute of Industrial Design in Warsaw and thus became a finalist at "Good Design 2016," a competition for the best designed products and services available on the Polish market. Warssawa continues to grow. It is run by a small but dedicated team who is passionate about creating a top quality handmade product for the most demanding customer.
