The competition Paradyż Designers was created with professionals in mind. Ceramika Paradyż, together with Gosia Baczyńska, has invited architects, designers, decorators and interior design students, in other words people actively involved in interior design, to realize the vision of a modern interior and create an arrangement that will "dress" it up like the best fashion creations. The competition task was to prepare a 3D visualization of any space up to 80 m2 with a creative and original use of ceramic tiles from the Paradyż My Way by Gosia Baczyńska collection. The competition was held under the patronage of the Association of Polish Architects SARP.

Our mission to inspire with beauty and our position in the industry oblige us to spectacular actions. Last year we launched a collection of tiles created together with Gosia Baczyńska, which perfectly expresses our courage and original approach to industrial design. Now, through a competition, we wanted to invite people from the industry to interpret and present their own ideas for using these original products. The results exceeded our wildest expectations. The enormous creativity and talent of the creators resulted in wonderful designs. I am convinced that they will become an inspiration for other professionals as well as for our customers. I would like to congratulate the winners and thank the jury for their commitment and hard work. It was extremely interesting to see how young architects draw on the experience of our brand,
