A modern monochrome set inspired by elements of Tudor architecture and created by combining traditional making techniques with new desktop manufacturing technology. Porcelain-handled flatware produced by merging 3D printing with slip-casting and dinnerware decorated with digitally generated, hand screen printed designs. The facades of traditional black and white timber framed buildings are translated into a bold and unique graphic pattern for each piece of the service. Like the buildings, the set when displayed together, combine the individual patterns into a dramatic and dynamic display.
Castara Designs Ltd was founded in 2014 by 3D Design graduate and former interior designer, Khadine Khan-Parkinson. The company is based in London and launched their first home-ware collections in 2015. Both their Bone China dinnerware and kitchen textiles are inspired by architecture, namely the Tudor style found in the UK and the British Colonial style found in the Caribbean.
