Ceramic tableware by Ampdesign is created using a hybrid of traditional and cutting edge technology. The designs for each piece are all digitally modelled using advanced 3D surface modeling software. The 3D model is then used to create plaster molds for slip-casting using a CNC milling machine. The advantages of this result in complete control over dimensional design characteristics as well as the ability to make multiple molds with multiple variations. This provides for greater experimantation and ďŹ ne tuning the nuanced nature of ceramic design. After the molds are made, the process of slip-casting and glazing is fairly tradional. Unique glazing formuilas and applications are also part of the process.
