Overview
About the project
Scope
Studio and shop interior, display furniture
Materials
Pine, limewash, galvanised steel, clay tile
Ida sells most of her work from the studio in summer. The old shop felt like a gallery, and visitors were nervous to touch anything.
Made for handling
We built low pine tables and open shelves at hand height, limewashed the walls and moved the wheel to the window so visitors can watch her work while they browse.
- Display tables at 72 cm, the height of a kitchen table
- Wheel and glazing area visible from the shop
- Galvanised shelving in the storeroom for drying
A better summer
Sales in the first season were up, but Ida says the best change is that people now stay to talk.
Client words
Visitors pick things up now. Before, they were afraid to.
Ida, ceramicist
