About Castles In Ceramics مزهرية، وعاء تقديم

"قلاع من السيراميك" مزهرية سيراميكية معيارية تؤدي أيضًا وظيفة أدوات المائدة. تتكوّن المزهرية من أربعة أجزاء تتراكم فوق بعضها بتعشيق ثابت ودقيق. وعند إغلاقها، تعمل القطعة كعنصر زخرفي للطاولات وخزائن العرض الجانبية، أو كإناء للزهور. أما عند فتحها، فتتحول الأجزاء الأربعة إلى أوعية وحاويات منفصلة للفاكهة أو غيرها من الأطعمة. يُشكَّل كل جزء على المخرطة أو داخل قالب من الجبس، ثم يُزخرف يدويًا بالرسم على الطراز التقليدي لمدينة كاستيلي. المزهرية آمنة للاستخدام في غسالة الأطباق، ويمكن حرقها بدرجات حرارة مختلفة لتصبح صالحة لملامسة الأطعمة.

Design Challenge
The purpose of the project is to combine the Great Beauty of Italian art with the languages of contemporary living, to spreadthe centuries-old artisan tradition of the ceramics of Castelli in the international furniture sales channel.
The project, in addition to the design aspects, is also enriched by well-structured business plan that aims to create work in the area and revitalize the local artisan tradition, in a territory that is experiencing a moment of difficulty also due to an earthquake that it recently hit the area creating enormous human and material damage.
Research
The culture and the productive identity of the territory form the basis of this project/process. Starting from the analysis of the artistic reality of the village of Castelli, we have created a complete strategy: from the design, to the production system, up to the sales strategies.
The whole project is realized with the collaboration of the Maestri Ceramisti of Castelli and putting their artisan heritage at the center.
The project is completed by a marketing plan that wants to connect small handicraft shops with the international public.
Inspiration
The great tradition of Ceramics of Castelli is our inspiration. An excellence with centuries of history, which could be found in the tableware of the most important ruling dynasties in Europe.
In our project, ceramics are revitalized to give a contemporary dimension to this tradition: modularity, ease of use and timeless design, with unique hand-decorated pieces, one by one, which are brought directly to our tables from the museum.
Project Duration
The project is based on the city of Castelli, an enchanting village located about 150 km from Rome, under the slopes of Mount Gran Sasso. A place of great artistic and scenic beauty, Castelli boasts a centuries-old tradition in the field of ceramics. The operational plan of the project is to develop the local production of the product and bring it to diffusion in the sales channels within 12 months.
Operation Flow
When closed it is a lovely vase that can decorate furniture or tables. When open, it becomes a tableware kit with a great aesthetic impact, in which each part that can be used as a container or bowl. Also dishwasher safe, each vase is made up of four parts that can be easily assembled by overlapping them with their stable and precise interlocking. Function, beauty, and ease of use: an object that combines a centuries-old artistic tradition to the needs of contemporary lifestyle.
