The Vase

This project is proving to be difficult for me to think of any ideas. Personally I think the design of tulip vases are weird and I don't really like them so trying to design something that appeals to me has been a challenge. When I look at floral arrangements I like to see the flowers and other greenery bunched together so that they all create a pleasing look rather than viewing them stuck in individual holes.

This vase by Sanam Enami has a very nice glaze to it but it is a great example of the flowers being too spread out for my liking, they droop and seem out of place.

For my design I would like to do a piece that has all the individual spaces come together, I'm thinking they will spiral up from the bottom and then form together at the top so when flowers are placed in it they will sit closer together.

I really think I'm going to try to focus on a nice art nouveau design for this vase, I really liked the design of this dress panel by Hector Guimard. While it's not a ceramic piece I think I want to incorporate that criss cross flowy line style that really fills up the space.
