Clay Extruding Stools: Old Material used to build modern design

Designer max cheprack, student at the Holon Institute of Technology in Israel researched and pioneered a process in Clay excursion and designed this stool. Designer has built two pneumatic extruders (for two different die sizes) that push clay through the die. The Semiindustrial process enabled to manipulate the material, with never-before-seen precision and complexity. Max's research led to the creation of various objects that illustrate the many possibilities of this technology. Finally, Max chose to express the result of his research process in a new design for a stool. The final result is inspired by the material culture of the Middle East so as to express time and place. The research opens up new possibilities in ceramic design and shows great promise as a method of production and design.
