A few familiar forms
Made for the everyday.
A curve, a rim, a little weight in the hand. Useful objects begin with modest questions.
The morning cup
Comfort comes from proportions: a handle with room to hold, a steady base, and a rim that feels quiet.

The small vessel
A narrow opening and a broad shoulder make a useful pause in a room. One stem is often enough.

Thinking through makingFour ways
Four ways
to look at a form.
01 Proportion
Notice the relationship between height, width, and the space an object occupies.
02 Surface
A smooth glaze and a rough foot can tell different parts of the same story.
03 Weight
How something feels in the hand matters as much as how it rests on a shelf.
04 Use
A good shape leaves room for everyday habits, including the unexpected ones.
A simple perspective
An object does not have to draw attention to become a favourite. Sometimes it only needs to fit naturally into the rhythm of a day.
