Creating things with clay is more than just a past time. The craft of ceramics is not one to be taken lightly and one has to study and practice just as with any craft. For one who is a ceramic designer or someone seeking to try their hand at it, there is a book that your shelf needs.

Ceramic Design Course is a great resource for ceramic artists who are interested in improving their design process. This is also a great book for beginning industrial design students. It should be noted that this book is not a book about how to make pottery. However, if you are looking to better understand and design your work including integrating form, shape and color, then this is the book for you.

Ceramic craftsmen intent on making pottery for everyday use, as well as dedicated artisans concentrating on fine-art objects will find insight and handy instruction in Ceramic Design Course.

Step-by-step tutorials take readers through each stage of the ceramic-making process with:

• A clearly illustrated summary of essential potter’s tools
• Instruction on developing design concepts and making prototypes and technical drawings
• Making models from drawings
• Making sample pieces to test glazes, colors, and surfaces
• Final design, creation of finished pieces, and development of a portfolio for presentation to buyers

Ceramic Design Course has practical exercises for each stage in pottery design and construction. While it is more for the profession designer, ambitious amateur do-it-yourselfers will also find plenty of inspiration and solid instruction in this resourceful book.
