1. Slab building

2. Slab Pressed or rolled flat sections of clay
Slabs can be attached to one another to make vessels and structures

3. Building with Slabs

4. Concept Research ceramic slab forms on the internet
Create an original form/design that:
Is NOT a box
Is built using Stiff (hard) slabs
Is complex
Does not exceed 12 inches in height (more than 3 inches)
Can be GEOMETRIC or ORGANIC
Has all included slabs a ¼” in thickness
If you find a form that is GEOMETRIC, you will most likely need to use a template.

5. Template – a shaped piece of metal, wood, card, plastic, or other material used as a pattern for processes such as painting, cutting out, shaping, or drilling.
Use a template to ensure consistency in measurements and connections
