Objects & Editions — From Story to Object Concept Development, Product Design & Material Exploration What if an everyday object could carry a complete story?
Objects & Editions began as an exploration of how emotion, memory and human experience could be translated into sculptural, functional objects.
Rather than designing isolated pieces, I developed each collection as a complete visual and sensory world—defined by its narrative, forms, colours, textures, materials and central symbolic object. The challenge was to move from an abstract emotional concept to a coherent family of physical objects.
Every vase, tray, bowl, candle holder or table piece needed to feel connected to the same origin while remaining functional, reproducible and visually distinctive. I created a story-led product design system in which the narrative came first.
Each collection was developed through:
— concept and emotional territory; — shape and functional exploration; — colour, texture and material language; — hero-object development; — cold porcelain master prototypes; — mould-making studies; — casting and finishing tests. The objective was not to decorate an object, but to give form to an idea.
