Noora Karila is a Helsinki-based designer and artist who makes functional ceramic tableware. Her handmade pieces are a celebration of the natural and organic properties of clay, whenever possible making use of Finnish wild clay and colouring oxides. Minimalistic designs and expressive textures are united through both traditional and more experimental techniques. A deliberately slow manufacturing process means Noora carefully considers what gets fired, as well as how to recycle and repurpose leftover clay to minimise waste.
