Parametric Ceramics

Combining slipcasting with parametric modeling

Parametric Ceramics is a sequence of ceramic objects that discover the potential of design utilizing parametric modeling and slip casting as inventive instruments. Slipcasting is a method for the mass-production of pottery and ceramics. The method is suited to the manufacturing of complicated shapes, particularly if with aid ornament and skinny partitions. By combining this system with digital parametric design which generate types relying on the habits of a pc algorithm in response to a set of information, we will create pottery that’s aesthetic, exhausting to be crafted by hand, but manufacturable.

Parametric Modeling

The time period “parametric design” is initially utilized in structure, to explain design methodology utilizing an algorithm based mostly mannequin system. By continuously altering parameters, we’re capable of get completely different types in realtime, analyzing greatest outcomes based mostly on design intents, and even being a form-finding course of.

On this mission, we purpose to discover the types which slot in authentic slipcasting course of, exhausting to be crafted by hand, however with wealthy parametric aesthetic. Type exploration stage exhibits the likelihood we found by making use of distinctive math sample in nature, including gradual altering parameters, altering easy or low-poly facade, and so forth.
