About
Rosy Napper is a ceramic material researcher and designer based in London and recent graduate of Central Saint Martins, UAL.
She is interested in the intersection of science and design, specialising in the sustainable development of waste-based ceramics.
She makes functional pieces, aiming to maximise her work’s potential life after firing through utility and purpose.
Above all, she uses unwanted and unused resources to replace environmentally damaging ones in the hopes of one day reducing the ceramic industry’s impact on the planet.
