ceramics as a load-bearing element
Ceramics tend to be thought of as tiles, cups, dinnerware — rarely as construction material. The Ceramic Re:visions research project at TU Graz asked exactly that question: can ceramic material be modularly combined into load-bearing structures? Which geometries make static sense? Where are the limits?
We supported the research team with visualizations and diagrams — from the concept model to the exhibition graphics.
exhibitions in graz and valencia
The project was publicly shown twice: first at the Haus der Architektur in Graz, then at the international ceramics fair Cevisama in Valencia. For both stations we curated and prepared the visual material — schematics, renderings, exhibition layouts.
why projects like this matter
Visualization studios are usually booked by developers or industrial clients — where the output is directly sales-relevant. Research projects are different: the audience is peers, juries, trade press. But it’s exactly there that you learn things which never come up in routine commercial projects — new material limits, unusual geometries, unfamiliar scales.
We don’t actively pursue these briefs. But when they find us, we gladly say yes.
