The purpose of completing an academic study of dinnerware as an industrial designer is to gain a mastery of a product used everyday in and out of the home. With such a rich history in ceramics, it is challenging to design a new dinner service set that is functional, enhances the aesthetics of a meal and sustains the intimate relationship of everyday use by adapting to lives. My particular design ideals are expressed in the line quality, section, volume, breadth and visual language of the Galaxy Collection. This document is a record of the research and decision making process for the design of the dinner service.1 volumeapplication/pdfenIn Copyrightindustrial designceramicsdinnerwaretablewareporcelainLD5655.V855 2006.S855Thesishttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-11282006-120117/
