Cloud Vases is a minimalist design created by France-based designer Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec. Two years ago, the designers made Drawing, a book where they put together more than 850 of our drawings. Inside, they distinguish two types of drawings: preliminary studies that they make before creating an object – they are sketches – and in parallel, they also make drawings that aim to be only drawings. In the context of a limited edition to accompany Drawing book, they decided to make an object to be in keeping with our drawings. They did some tests with different materials and we found ceramic, with its imperfect and vibrant character to be the right answer; its alterity belongs also do drawings’ nature. It was difficult to associate a finished object to this profusion of drawings and the principle of Clouds – based on the articulation of shapes and on the possibility of composition through these kind of organic black stains – turned out to be the best solution.
