    Where do you wedge out how do you process your reclaimed clay?

    • @issey-roquet
      @issey-roquet 9 дней назад

      I wedge on a piece of wood on the floor, I hold the piece of wood down with my knees to prevent it from sliding. Not the best for posture for sure, but I don’t have a table option in the tiny space. As for reclaiming, I fill my buckets until they’re full enough, then I let the clay dry on plaster boards on the shelf (I put some little wooden feet under the plaster boards to allow for air circulation underneath). When dried I wedge the clay down on my knees on my floor wedging board 😅

I'm pretty sure by now, you've settled on a layout, but thought I'd still share, just in case something inspired you from the video. Definitely worth a watch and I think you will enjoy it. <3

I love Danny D’s staining on the plywood, I didn’t know staining plywood could look so good and even! I always heard it’d end up blotchy. I was just planning on incorporating wood in the studio just this week, and looking up local wood options. Thank you for thinking of my little studio though haha I feel like mine pale’s in comparison 😅😊❤️ love that you sent me this

    Beautiful space! Consider moving everything to the center of the room. Create stations or zones. Your light is only in the front and back, then consider utilizing the light to showcase your pottery on one side of the storefront and set up your wheel on the other side for the direct light. The passers-by people will see you making the pottery and will be able to see how they can use your pottery with a vignette on the other side of the storefront window.

Sorry if you've mentioned this somewhere in another video - I understand if it's not something you want to go into - but can you share details on the costs and funding? Are you renting it or did you buy the unit? What do the overheads look like and how are you covering them until you get your production up and running?

      @@C33Fernandez I haven’t gone over this yet, and maybe eventually I will. I’m still learning as I go, as this is all still new to me. And I’ve made many mistakes that have cost a lot - I’m still resolving some unfortunate costly issues as we speak that I haven’t talked about here. I was fortunate enough to be able to buy the abandoned unit, in order to renovate it from scratch. And I’ll probably have to not give myself a salary for the next year as I get production up and running, and reinvest into the studio. Maybe once I’m able to take a step back and look at the costs from a different perspective, once it doesn’t stress me as much as it is right now, I’ll be able to speak about it more and share what I’ve learned.

    It is a beautiful space and your new pieces are beautiful too. Watching the video, the small flashes of pure white, denim/indigo blue and green stood out as a visual contrast to the overall rich red/brown and cream, although they were on things that aren't of the quality of materials that you are choosing for the space (e.g. stool frame and seat, your jeans, a plant). Some sheer white linen as a drop curtain would lift the overall heaviness, I think, and the striped fabrics you were trying on your mood board could introduce some highlights in rich blues and greens. Unasked for advice, but it is what stood out for me visually watching the video. Thank you for sharing your lovely space and work, and I appreciate the gentle pace and contemplative shots of the wheel work.

    • @issey-roquet
      @issey-roquet Месяц назад

      Glad you noticed the flashes of indigo sprinkled here and there. I’ve been thinking of introducing more indigo, but was worried it was clashing too much with the rest. Definitely agree with you that overall the space needs more visual contrast with other colours. The monstera at the back really pops, I’m definitely thinking of bringing in more plants. Will definitely keep your suggestions in mind! Thank you 😊

    friendly unwarranted suggestions: i think lightweight linen to break up the space would help a lot! something that immediately jumped out at me was how bottom heavy the space is. the walls from about 2/3rds up are totally bare minus the brick detailing and all of the furniture is around waist high and lower which could contribute to that cluttery feeling, like sediments settling at the bottom. i don't know what you could move higher (your planned shelves?) but if some furniture could be moved up/taller so that the space beneath can be bare/open it can help the flow. your inspo boards have a lot of windows taking up higher wall space which you can't help but for sure the storage and visual breaks (like the linen) - even a tall but slender tree, or a tall lamp/high mounted sconce for the dark center. the new clay is fun. :-) love how warm the space is.

    • @issey-roquet
      @issey-roquet Месяц назад

      Totally agree with all of this! Thank you for all the great suggestions. I was kind of feeling all of this but couldn’t put words to it, and you expressed it all so eloquently. The large shelf was definitely supposed to be a 3m tall piece of furniture that I was hoping to build around, but it’s over 6 months late. I’m taking the delay as an opportunity to rethink it more. And in the mean time I want to find other solutions to give height and lightness to the space. I was thinking of replacing the lace curtains at the front doors and hanging really long pieces of coloured fabric instead. And adding taller plants is definitely on my list 😉 Thanks again for all the suggestions! I really appreciate it when you guys chime in 😊😊 Makes it feel like we’re in a small community 💕

    Hello issey, I do think that a light linen curtain could be helpful to seperate the storage/kitchen area from the creative working area, and help make the space feel less long by visually breaking it into two separate spaces without blocking the light or anything. I do think a colorful linen one like the one on your board would feat really nicely, or even maybe a pojagi curtain could look really nice. I love following your journey and witnessing the evolution of this space of yours ❤

    • @issey-roquet
      @issey-roquet Месяц назад

      Hola! I believe it’s a galvanized work table from Simonwork. It seems like lots of hardware stores in Europe carry work tables or “bancos de trabajo” similar to these (Leroy, Bauhaus, etc). They offer different wooden tops to go on top of an MDF surface. I wouldn’t recommend the basic plywood option they offer though, it’s pretty cheap plywood. If you’d like plywood, I’d get a nicer one cut to size from the hardware store. Hope this helps!
