Errorica is a story of the beauty of technical errors which occur during the production of ceramics. Thanks to understanding and harnessing such phenomena as the cracking or shrinking of glaze it is possible to obtain unusual decorative textures while maintaining the product’s utility features. On every object the cracking patterns are different, yet their similarity creates a coherent line of products, which are unique and functional at the same time.

The quest to find common areas of art and design by experimentally studying the limitations of techniques and technology is a natural consequence of the designer’s lifelong search of unconventional applications of knowledge and craft skills.
