Design Services

We design tableware for brands, restaurants and hotels that want pieces of their own. Our team of architects and designers takes a product from the first sketch to a working prototype, and the design can stay exclusive to you.

When a project grows beyond what a studio can make by hand, we prepare it for industrial production and work with the manufacturers for you, so the finished pieces stay true to the prototype.

How we work

From research to production

Each stage is a conversation. You see and approve the work before we move on to the next one.

  • Step 1

    Research

    We start by understanding what will work for you: how the pieces will be used, what they need to withstand and who will use them. We plan the design with its future production in mind and set the budget together.

  • Step 2

    Sketches and drawings

    From the research we move to the first sketches and drawings and refine them together with you.

  • Step 3

    Visualisations

    3D visualisations show the shape, proportions and color of each piece before anything is made.

  • Step 4

    Physical prototypes

    We make the prototypes in our studio in Sofia, so you can hold each piece, test it in use and decide what to change.

  • Step 5

    Glazes and materials

    We choose the clay body and develop the glazes with you. The shapes, colors and details can be designed exclusively for you.

  • Step 6

    Production

    Small series can be made in our studio. For larger quantities we prepare the product for industrial production and work with the manufacturers until the pieces are delivered.

Questions

Before we start

  • Who do you design for?

    Brands, restaurants, hotels, shops and companies that want tableware made for them.

  • Can the design be exclusive?

    Yes. We agree on exclusivity at the start of the project, and the design is made only for you.

  • Do you also produce the pieces?

    Prototypes and small series are made in our studio in Sofia. For larger quantities we prepare the product for industrial production and work with manufacturers on your behalf.

  • How long does a project take?

    It depends on the number of pieces and the stages you need. After the first conversation we send you a plan with timing.

  • Can we work together remotely?

    Yes. We share sketches and visualisations online and send prototypes worldwide with DHL. You are also welcome at our studio in Sofia.

  • What do you need to start?

    A short description of the project: what pieces you need, where they will be used, rough quantities and your timing.
