The CERCCO’s resources enable experimental research and the development of the most suitable solutions for any project involving ceramics, plaster, and polymers. The CERCCO team provides a broad range of technical, artistic, and methodological knowledge, fostering the acquisition of the skills and expertise needed to bring specific and meaningful projects to fruition.

The CERCCO office provides students with a materials library and a laser printer dedicated to ceramic transfers, ideal for exploring new finishes. The plaster room, equipped with a plaster lathe and wax-casting equipment, makes precise and experimental work possible, while the polymer area allows for the production of molds and parts in silicone or resin using specialized equipment.

The CERCCO ceramics workshop is the heart of production, with a complete materials library, a drying cabinet, and professional equipment such as a sandblaster, diamond sander, pottery wheels, slab roller, clay mixer, and vacuum pug mill. The lab provides access to a wide range of raw materials, glazes, and oxides, as well as a test kiln for refining research. Finally, the kiln room, equipped with ceramic kilns of various capacities (up to 1,000 liters), a glazing booth, and a diamond saw, provides optimal conditions for every stage of firing and finishing.

Each year, CERCCO hosts artists, designers, architects, and ceramists for two three-month residencies. To learn more:
