| Outline of Research at the Start |
This research will design and implement a platform to prototype and communicate sustainable innovation in handmade ceramics. Merging quantitative and qualitative analysis, the study is informed by a Life Cycle Assessment, material experiments, firing tests and interviews with practitioners.
|
| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research employed a mixed-methods approach to identify, test and disseminate solutions to advance the sustainability of handmade ceramic practices. The research included material tests, interviews with practitioners, a systematic literature review of 115 documents and produced the first Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) of a pottery studio. The LCA study assessed the production of stoneware mugs with ash green glaze fired in electric and gas kilns. Most carbon emissions came from energy use (over 70%) but the impact of packing the pots (cardboard, peanuts, paper) was also significant. Heating and lighting the studio contributed to about one fifth of total emissions.
