HISTORY
Ceramic Sparrow is a design studio dedicated to ceramics, founded in 2010 by Andreea Lăzărescu and Tiberiu Dăncila. They design and produce decorative and household objects and lately focus more on the tea ware.
SPECIFIC
Featuring a modern vision (both the Cézanne's simplification, geometry, removing details, and also the treating of the design object with the love, the attention and the skill dedicated to a painting or sculpture, invoked by John Ruskin), Ceramic Sparrow proposes new and original shapes with finishes and decors manually made; to maintain quality, the journey from idea to final product takes place exclusively in the Ceramic Sparrow studio.
ROMANIAN DESIGN WEEK APPEARANCES
2019 // Gothic Light
"Gothic Light" is an ambient lamp designed to individualize an intimate and comfortable living space. The light will be warm and diffused (due to the translucency of the porcelain) with a round focus, open at the top. The inspiration of this object came from the late Transylvanian Gothic, customized by the synthesis of the Romanesque and Gothic elements. The shape is simple, stable, solid, symmetrically imprinted by a broken arc (similar to rib vault in Gothic architecture) that delimits a plan as a concave lens. Thus, the image of the cone trunk, the classical lamp, turns into a new volume with transients between the curve and the angular. Hard edges and drawing also fit into the aesthetics of other Ceramic Sparrow collections.
2018 // Teaware collection
The Teaware collection will include three series of teapots: Malevich, Melanoplus and Tea for one. The elements that make the teaware collection relate to shape (which is the main character here): the passage of a volume from angular to round and consequently from straight planes to curved planes, rigid edges and intersections. These elements capture the eye and hand when rotating the object through a specific management of the symmetric-asymmetric relation.
Malevich, the newest, is a set consisting of a teapot with one pair of cups with two variants of sizes. The triangle and the circle determine a common plane which break up the monotony of classical rotating pottery bodies.
