Recommended if you want to learn practical and theoretical principals of ceramics in a fun hands-on way.

Our Ceramic Design Course will give you a solid introduction to all the core ceramic techniques and materials. Plus tremendous amount of fun working with clay. Learn an ancient craft while discovering ways to integrate it into contemporary design fields, which could be anything from jewellery to tableware, interior objects and art pieces.


4 Group Classes:

Nov 28 - 11:00-13:30 - Hand-Building and Ceramic Design

Current session will be devoted to techniques of working with clay. You will get introduced to qualities and capabilities of clay and create your first ceramic piece.

Dec 4 - 11:00-13:30 - Slab-Building

This technique is incredibly useful if not to say essential for creating ceramic vessels of numerous shapes and functions and adding a new dimension to your work. In this session you will try it out, learn different tips and trick on handling the clay with this approach.

Dec 11 - 11:00-13:30 - Sculpture

Current session will be devoted to Sculptural work with clay. Ceramics as a medium goes far beyond functional tableware and this class will allow you to explore the techniques that could take you to the next level of 3-dimensional expression.

Dec 19 - 11:00-13:30 - Glazes, Colorstains & Oxides

Glazes are the queens of coloring, colorstains & Oxides are the best way to spice it up! You will learn how to create stunning and experimental glass-platings on your clay objects.


On top of that, each of the participants will be offered:  

  • Inspiring project-based homework to make sure that through this course you confidently step into whatever you were dreaming about making
  • Assistance and tools required to set up a ceramic working station at home (wherever you have 1m2 of table surface) + 2 kg of clay. If your project will grow into a big scale, additional clay will be available for purchase at 14 euro/ 2kg
  • Personal consultation time with the course holder (to make sure you successfully advance with your project and know exactly, what is the next craftsmanship step towards a splendid result)
  • Covered firing costs of the ceramic items you create at home during the first two weeks of the course, and all the items you make in class. Further firing will be available at a firing rate of our Firing Hub - Clayground

The workshop is suitable for both, prior participants of Ceramic Workshops and complete beginners, no prior experience with ceramics is required.

Your Teacher:

Viviane Tabach works in the areas of curatorship, art education, and fine arts. She founded ceramic brand Lebú in 2014 and ran her own workshop and art space in São Paolo, Brasil. As a ceramics teacher with many years of experience, in her classes she seeks to collectively investigate the experience of hand-building with clay. The contact with clay for her is as a way to connect with nature, negotiation between intention and intuition in shaping, observation of the contrast between our rhythm and the clay's pace.
