Mémoire De Le Corbusier Exhibition at Japanese Store EDANE
Earlier today I was entranced by this exhibition held at Japanese store EDANE which sells lots of knick knack type products, anything from ceramics to woodwork. The reason why I was fascinated was because the small exhibition in their store paid homage to the only and only Le Corbusier, a favourite
Taro Tabuchi, Wood-Fired Kiln Porcelain
This is possibly the first time this year that I've come across a selection of imagery from an artist that's just too vast. It's that expansive that the 15 images I placed here in my opinion are nowhere near enough to represent the message that I want to convey, but I guess you've got to work with w
Ann Linnemann, Ceramic Designer, Artist and Potter
If you're anything like me every so often you'll come across a designer or artist who seems to create work that's near enough perfect. It doesn't happen all that often but when it does every photo you view just seems to hit home, and when I bring it across here to showcase it's impossible to pick u
Phil Elson, Hand Thrown Porcelain Tableware
Ceramics has been high up on our list of inspiring subjects lately, although I'm partial to all aspects of the field I seem to be pulled towards porcelain as a material for some reason or another. I think it's because I like the transparency and the simplicity, it's quite clean and precise which pro
Ceramics by Virginie Besengez
I thought we'd head to France today in search of a little creative inspiration, visiting the work of Virginie Besengez, a ceramic artist based in the idyllic setting that is Wambrechies, which can be found on the map just north of Lille. As an artist Virginie has been known to dabble in both porcela
Yumiko iihoshi Porcelain
Even though we don't necessarily work on weekends here I'll still keep my eyes open for inspiration, beautifully designed objects and information that's new and exciting in the design world. Sometimes it's just luck of the draw to what you'll find but generally I discover something that's really int
Ceramics by Lilith Rockett
I’m not sure how we’ve not posted up Lilith Rockett’s work before, I’ve come across many ceramicists over the years, albeit each one having a slightly different flavour, but I’ve never seen such a complete collection as Lilith’s. She works primarily in porcelain which seems to be a massi
An Interview with Toshiko Takaezu by D.B.Long
Now I know this film is slightly old but I thought it would be a great piece for all of you watch today, I haven’t seen it before and the views seem surprisingly low so I’m guessing others haven’t either. It’s a short interview produced by D.B.Long with ceramic artist Toshiko Takaezu, someon
Handmade Ceramics at Inventory Stockroom by Shino Takeda
I'm back again today with another post that follows along the same line as my last, this time I thought I'd put some imagery together thanks to our friends at Inventory who've recently released their latest set of items. It's unusual for me to cover two similar things so closely to one another, but
Akiko’s Pottery
Finding beautiful objects isn't always an easy task, usually the best stuff is hiding away somewhere unusual, but I have to admit it's nice when things just seem to fall into your lap. Luckily last night I came across this fantastic web store named Totokaelo, they're actually a shop that I've seen a
Ceramics at Mr Kitly
So although we don't tend to write over the weekend I still spend my mornings on the look out for new and inspiring work, sometimes I just stumble across creative things due to general research, other times one subject leads to another or I'm re-visiting a place that we've come across before. It's a
Film on Danish Potter: Anne Mette Hjortshøj
It's time to put the kettle on and get a little comfortable in your chair as this project, much like the art of pottery, isn't for those in a hurry. If you do have spare time on your hands and an avid interest in seeing individuals create one of a kind objects however then you're in for a real treat
