Porcotta is a set of flower pots based on the unique vibe of two types of clay with different properties. The combination of refined silk white porcelain and all-natural terracotta presents a new balance of beauty. We tried to give a unified look for flower pots only made of terracotta without a bowl on the top by inlaying white clay into the grooves etched on their surface. The holes on the top are inspired by Sunuimi Ceramics’ signature openwork technique and the plum blossoms of Dancheong. It can be displayed in various ways based on the user’s purpose since the bowl on the top is easy to separate and the whole set of flower pots are designed with different heights to create a sense of rhythm. Studio Mindeulae Designer Jihyun Park said he was fortunate to meet a good maker and had fun working together. It was a great opportunity for him to learn the process of how to make ceramics. Sunuimi Ceramics CEO Uimi Sun said she participated in this collaboration to find a new approach different from her typical style and viewpoint that have been formed over many years of work. It was great that Studio Mindeulae had a strong sense of can-do spirit to try new things and a fresh and open perspective. She said it was a great opportunity to try different approaches.
