Laurin Schaub

Born in Switzerland in 1984, ceramicist Laurin Schaub consistently pursues current issues of design in the field of tension between traditional craftsmanship and new technology. After a lot of experience in traditional manufactories, a postgraduate degree at the HEAD in Geneva and several years of teaching at the School of Design in Bern, he now focuses exclusively on his work as a designer in his own studio. Laurin Schaub has received several awards for his work.

Laurin Schaub has developed a workshop for db pottery focussing on glazes. The workshop begins with an introduction to the basics of the world of glazes. The topics of composition, properties and mixing methods are covered.

Laurin wird verschiedene Mischungsquadrate vorstellen. In einer Reihe von Versuchen werden dann Glasuren entwickelt, getestet und verbessert. Alle Teilnehmer:innen werden zum Abschluss  ihre eigenen Objekte glasieren können.

This course is suitable for participants who already have some knowledge of making ceramics and using prefabricated glazes.
