Rossenham has been exploring the connection between beauty and usability throughout his entire life. His work resonates with a dialectic of aesthetics from parallel fields that he brings to his craft.

Rossenham’s three personal projects, Ruralista, Atelier Productora, and Rossenham are the wellsprings he draws from in his journeys between design disciplines and techniques. He’s happy to link extremes like slow-and-mass production while creating new ceramic forms that challenge and delight the eye. Rick’s main objective was to understand and master the process of hand-working both wood and clay together while creating an array of projects for a diverse client base along the way. Rick’s collections are manifestations of his journey in handmade magic.

Rick Rossenham In The Studio

It is essential to work with the idea of consumption in a noble way and to seek contact with what is truly human. I believe that the achievement of existence is to generate a new language, both in form and content, through which society can understand itself (in the individual aspect) and at the same time empathize with one another.
