Through the designing and building process in this workshop, students conceptualize the objects within the home, discovering the inner complexities and structural components to building large-scale utilitarian pieces. From side tables and stools to lamps and bookshelves, students work through the design process from conception to completion using sketches and maquettes, calculating shrinkage, and exercising patience in the various stages of wet working clay. Students walk away with a better understanding of how and when to implement interior structures, how to combine coil and slab techniques, and the extensive start-to-finish process of working on large-scale utilitarian design objects
