Kiln — Ceramics studio brand

An identity for a ceramics studio where no two pieces are the same colour.

A fixed brand palette made the work look inconsistent rather than handmade. The brand uses no colour at all, so the glazes carry it. Every new firing extends the identity instead of breaking it.
