The two girls Marianne Guernieri and Francesca Gattello, who graduated from the Polytechnic product design in Milan, also loved the craftsmanship and organized the GUGA project, which was designed for the local handicraft materials project. Recently, their CALCAREA ware series was exhibited at the Designjunction exhibition in London. People's attention.
Because it is the innovative use of industrial stone, the waste industrial stone is ground into powder and applied to the design of ceramics. The material texture is very close to the stone of the soil, so Francesca Gattello went to a cave to shoot the picture during the product photography. It works well with the product.
The designer hopes to scale and commercialize this stone powder based on ceramic ware, transforming this material with unique texture and beauty from waste into household items such as rustic ornaments and containers on our table. In the early material testing phase, the designers made a lot of attempts. The first batch has developed a kit for the bathroom and a different surface texture with glaze.
The Calcarea project is now also working with local small ceramic workshops, as they are all hand-made, and all the traces and tastes of the craft remain on the product to match the texture of the product.
