Hand to heart
Corinne de Haas
Ceramic artist Corinne de Haas will be joining the ranks of designers exhibiting on 2019’s show. Since 1991, she and her team have been producing handmade ceramics, using a variety of clays and a combination of contemporary and traditional techniques. Corinne’s urge to experiment – with glazes, shapes and texture - has ensured that over the years the products have remained fresh and exciting while the instinctual process and tactile nature of the pieces makes each one of a kind.

Based on SA’s East Coast, the boutique woodworking studio creates minimal contemporary designs that are imbued with meaning.
