Description

Metaxy (from ancient Greek metaxy, “in the middle”) explores the liminal realm between opposites—gravity anchoring us to earth, grace lifting toward the divine—where hardness meets softness, control dances with spontaneity, and avant-garde embraces tradition. These 3D-printed coloured porcelain vases rebel against binary thinking through stretched forms (tall/squat, cold/hot, smooth/textured…), dramatic gradients from fiery orange textures to deep future dusk bases, and the tension between digital parametric precision and ceramic’s unpredictable firing outcomes. As ritual vessels for memory and transition, they embody geological strata, cosmic flux, and the beauty of impermanence in a digital age.

About Layered Ceramics Studio Visit Showroom →

Layered Ceramics Studio is a 3D-printed ceramic studio based in Berlin, driven by a passion for translating through digital fabrication the logical patterns observed in Nature. The studio creates sculptures that feel haptic and alive: otherworldly objects born from algorithms, that inhabit physical space.The approach pushes constantly the limits of contemporary 3D printing while honouring traditions in ceramic craft, producing designs that embody innovation and sustainability.At the core of the practice lies the exploration of tension between digital and physical: technology's precision against organic warmth. Research centers on morphology and material behaviour, seeking alternative paths in ceramic design. Computational methods blend with traditional techniques to create a unique design language.The goal is to craft sculptures that deliver a "Back to Earth" gesture in our virtual age—works positioned close to human existence, countering the digital while connecting it to living reality. Touching one of these pieces means touching the moment the algorithm became alive.
