Mosca Bianca Integrates Craft Process into Interior design<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Mosca Bianca project by AACM \u2013 Atelier Architettura Chinello Morandi is a ceramic<\/a><\/strong> workshop that also functions as an exhibition<\/a><\/strong> space in Padua, Italy<\/a><\/strong>. The design concept integrates the entire process of terracotta<\/a><\/strong> crafting into the spatial and material composition of the interior. The primary design gesture takes the form of a continuous, sculptural element that extends from the ceiling and guides the spatial experience. Shaped to evoke the twisting movement of clay on a potter\u2019s wheel, this form creates a centripetal dynamic within the space, drawing attention toward a single zenithal light source. This lighting element punctuates the central axis, aligning with a monolithic work and display table positioned diagonally within the room.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The table<\/a><\/strong> serves multiple functions. While it operates as an exhibition platform when closed, it transforms into a worktable during ceramic workshops. Its structure reveals a series of concealed chairs and storage compartments integrated into the volume. Constructed from okum\u00e9 wood<\/a><\/strong> sheets and supported by T-shaped frames, the table features a slender, cantilevered design that visually reduces its mass and emphasizes lightness. The choice of surface material responds to functional requirements for clay workability.<\/p>\n

Spatial Design by AACM is Rooted in Material Lifecycle<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The surrounding surfaces contribute to the narrative of the ceramic-making process. Walls and ceilings are finished with a rammed-earth plaster composed of clay and brick production waste. This material selection reflects a focus on reuse and closed material cycles, consistent with the lifecycle of terracotta. Storage for tools and workshop equipment is integrated discreetly behind metal blades and fabric curtains, maintaining a clear spatial language and allowing functional elements to appear only as needed during use.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Throughout the project by studio<\/a><\/strong> AACM – Atelier Architettura Chinello Morandi, the relationship between form, material, and function remains central. The spatial layout, material palette, and lighting strategy collectively reference the phases of terracotta production, from raw material, through shaping and working, to final display.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
