Our Philosophy of Design

The design of our products is based on a philosophy that both, intuitively as well as consciously, leaves its mark on the experience of form. The effort to create objects having a natural effect, inspiration taken from culture, and manual skills go hand in hand.

The search for a new form is a process that needs further explaining. The origin  of a new form is situated somewhere between a pool of forms inspired by nature or culture, the process of experience and an instantaneous idea. The evolution of form starting from this spiritual moment finds its way all through the visual dimension of draft and the physical experience of the hands while molding the plaster, yet not into its final form.

Now the artisan joins in this process by working on the material. However, the characteristics of the material are not in contrast with the manual processing, and surfaces are not just additional décor. In fact, the surface becomes an integral part of the object without leaving behind a cold and functional impression.

If this succeeds really individual forms begin to develop: Design as an event in itself!
