From fragments to futures

From Fragments to Futures explores how discarded high-fired ceramics can become new design resources by combining traditional craft with digital technology. Through Trencadís, ceramic fragments are reassembled into prototypes for tiles and interior surface applications. Based on my original concept and material research, I collaborated on developing the digital layer: a fragment archiving system and web application that allows fragments to be scanned, organised and combined into different design variations, visualising possible tile compositions before physical assembly. A robotic arm and its control software further explore automated assembly. The project creates a bridge between hands-on craft and technology, proposing a circular workflow for future design.
