When Laurin Schaub first came across ceramics, he immediately understood that it was what he wanted to do in life. After training in the workshop of a master, he graduated in Ceramic Design at the Schule für Gestaltung Bern und Biel and at the Haute école d'art et de design (HEAD) in Geneva. Since opening his studio in Bern, he has engaged in creating functional porcelain objects with a deconstructed perspective. "I don’t follow a particular style," he explains. "Rather, I keep asking myself what pottery can be today. I am always looking for new techniques and I am often inspired by non-ceramic sectors. On the one hand, I use digital tools and advanced technologies to develop new techniques and design languages; and on the other hand, I am committed to classic pottery and pure craftsmanship." This leads to products and objects with a wide range of functions and complexities.
