Concept

Phenomenon mass production

Design

In order to explore the possibility of incorporating elements that foster attachment into mass-produced ceramic products, we have been researching the mass production of various types of products by integrating chemical phenomena into the manufacturing process. This is an attempt to determine whether attachment can be evoked through the act of selecting and picking up the product.

Inspiration

Focusing on the beauty of the expressions created by fluid phenomena in liquids, he began researching the possibility of incorporating such elements into decorative designs.

Research

The ceramic manufacturing process was broken down as much as possible, with variables derived for each stage, and prototyping began. The phenograph is the result of removing preconceived ideas and incorporating materials not typically used in ceramics. It represents a design process aimed at discovering new techniques.
