Our Approach
We focus on understanding the fundamental properties of clay and glaze, creating pieces that balance form and function.
Material Understanding
Each type of clay responds differently to shaping, drying, and firing. We work with materials that suit the intended purpose of each piece.
Process Focus
The ceramic process requires patience and attention to detail at every stage, from initial forming to final firing.
Design Principles
We consider both aesthetic appeal and practical use, creating pieces that are beautiful and functional.
Working Methods
Various techniques offer different possibilities for creating ceramic forms.
Hand Building
Direct manipulation of clay allows for organic, expressive forms that reflect the maker's touch.
Wheel Throwing
The rotating wheel enables precise control, creating symmetrical vessels with consistent wall thickness.
The Firing Process
Controlled heat transforms raw clay into durable ceramic material.
Bisque Firing
Initial firing removes physical water and organic matter, preparing pieces for glazing.
Glaze Firing
Final firing melts the glaze, creating a glassy surface that seals and protects the clay body.
Temperature Control
Precise temperature management ensures proper vitrification and glaze development.
Studio Space
Our workspace is designed to support the various stages of ceramic production.
Work Areas
Dedicated spaces for forming, glazing, and finishing ensure efficient workflow.
Storage Solutions
Proper storage protects work in progress and finished pieces.
