Ceramic Works by Renaud Suave of Atelier des Cents-Ans
We're taking a small break from pottery at our local workshop due to it being closed for a month, so I've been hunting around for some inspiration to tide me over. It seems like a good idea to keep a little workbook of ideas that could come in handy whilst throwing on the wheel. Although I have to a
Masters Atelier Photographed by Natsumi Akatsuka
I was on the hunt for a new set of photography this morning when I came across a small series on Natsumi Akatsuka's photo journal. I've been a subscriber to Natsumi's website for a fair few years now and it's great to see her return to Japan and visit different places, in a lot of ways I'm very envi
Creative Imagery from Potter Yoshiyuki Shimizu
I love seeing imagery of creatives and artists at work, so when I stumbled across this fantastic looking set featuring Japanese potter Yoshiyuki Shimizu I had to pull it over for all of you to enjoy. Wonderful originality in the photography and I think all these of these do a great job at conveying
Shiko Pottery Studio, Australia
Today I've selected some great photography from a studio's website based in Brunswick, Australia named Shiko. To be quite honest we've not really featured many artists from Australia here in the past, even though there seems to be some fantastic work going on over there, so this post today should gi
Introduction to Sculptor Michael Coffey by Bespoke Global
This was a real treat of a find today, and I was quite lucky to stumble across it in all honesty. I was taking my usual travels to come across something unique/different that I could showcase and I had remembered I was going to research sculptor Michael Coffey but never got around to it after seeing
Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great Ordeal
When me and Daniel decide to showcase videos on the blog we're often wary of the length, as we know many people can get distracted when watching long pieces. Today I'm going to throw this rule out of the window as I point you towards a piece titled 'Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great
Olga Bennet Photographs Kim Mckechnie’s Studio
Another great week begins and with it I thought we'd make a return trip to view the progressive portfolio of Australian photographer Olga Bennet. As many will hopefully know Olga is someone who's work we have admired here in the past and it's been brilliant to watch her talents flourish and mature o
Inside the Studio of Japanese Potter Takeryo Kawaguchi
Today I've come across another special little feature that really grabbed my attention, it's an inside look at the studio of Japanese potter Takeryo Kawaguchi. He makes some incredible pieces like bowls, cups and tea pots so it's great to see the process and the environment that he creates in. He wa
Objects by Ceramic Studio Vitrified
It's always a joy discovering new companies who have the same aesthetic as us, although you'd think we would be into anything 'minimal' or 'modern' that's not really the case. It's a lot more complicated than that and we seem to be getting very particular about the substance behind a project or busi
The Art of Steam Bending by David Trubridge
We turn our attention now to David Trubridge, one of New Zeland's most iconic and innovative furniture designers in an engaging short film I enjoyed watching earlier this morning. Created as a means to document the process behind one of the designers creations we are taken inside the company worksho
Pottery by Takuji Hayashi
As my Japanese creative showcase slowly dwindles I'm left with a mixed batch of feelings, one being attached to the amount of amazing individuals working in different creative arts in Japan, the other relating to the disappointment across this side of the pond in terms of variety. It becomes pretty
Craven Road Studio by Shim-Sutcliffe Architects
I've literally gone around the houses today, as I searched for a dash of architecture that would remind us the value of great design. I found myself quickly fascinated by the work of Toronto based partners Shim-Sutcliffe who have created a great number of mesmerising, highly functional, sleek dwelli
