The gentle hues of nature and its multifaceted structures – from velvety softness to rugged originality – open up endless possibilities for a life with clay.
CLAY – A Journey with Nordic Clay invites you to discover the inspiring living spaces and working environments of creative minds, all dedicated to the beauty of authentic materials. In living spaces, textured walls and handcrafted objects come to life; in the studios of artists and artisans, clay is the element that takes shape between the hands.
This book combines eight impressive clay stories with fascinating imagery and tried-and-tested design tips for using clay paint and clay plaster – an invitation into an aesthetic world full of naturalness, depth, and craft inspiration.
Author and photographer Anna Wallendahr found her own path to clay when she and her family transformed an old village school into a home. The natural textures of breathable clay plaster and organic clay paints led her deeper into the origins of traditional craftsmanship.
