Concept: I was inspired by the comfort food that was usually made by my mother when I was a child. I was trying to create a feeling of home. As I am personally interested in platonic solid shapes, and natural hand-making stuff, all theses factors were reflected in the bowl’s shape and techniques. About the color usage, blue and yellow is kind of classic color in Chinese culture, so I decided to use these two as the major colors in my project . Also, the pattern on both of the ceramic set and the placemat were trying to keep the connections with geometric shapes, but depicted in a different way.
