Q&A: A British designer brings modern feel to traditional Chinese crafts

Q: In an interview with Interior Design in September 2017, you mentioned that products need more human perspective. How did you apply this idea in your Yixing ceramic designs?

A: By this I mean consumers need to make a bigger investment into products that are handmade, products that have an element of craft and culture. This was the point of our project with Yixing - how could we take what is essentially a traditional craft and position it for the global consumer, creating and producing products that carry a deeper meaning and are a reflection of culture?
