關於 Paw Bowl 慢食狗掌碗

呢款慢食碗係專為貓狗設計嘅陶瓷慢食碗。碗內凸起嘅狗掌形狀可以減慢佢哋進食嘅速度。另一款設計就淨係用淺淺嘅腳印痕跡嚟做裝飾。碗身內側嘅圓弧設計令食物唔會卡喺角落，加上光滑嘅釉面處理，清潔起嚟非常方便。碗身兩側設有凹槽，方便主人拎起個碗；而厚實沉甸嘅碗身連同底部防滑腳墊，可以有效防止寵物將個碗喺地上推嚟推去。腳印圖案仲可以揀選唔同顏色嚟做個性化設計。呢款碗適用於微波爐同洗碗機清洗，非常方便耐用。

生產技術: 1. Make a design image hand built by clay.
2. Digital modeling
3. 3D printing
4. Attached hand built paw sculpture.
4. Make a 4 parts plaster mold.
5. User testing
6. Research and improve glaze for the color.
設計挑戰: Trapezoid designing is what I had to learn for 3D modeling in order to create the same angle engaged design.
I used the 3D printed models to make the plaster molds and the stoneware prototypes.
I wanted the Paw to be changed to a personal choice of many colors, so I had to research and test many high fire clear glazes in order to find which one would show the actual bright color.
研究: I researched usable materials to find what would be the strongest, and this stainless steel. But stainless steel is not microwave safe and it is easy to push away because it is not usually heavy. Another option was porcelain. Porcelain would not be durable enough and would be many times the cost. Stone clay makes it heavy, strong, and beautiful. Also, I used to work in an animal hospital where we used stainless bowls and they remind me of sick animal patients. Pets are our family and we often use ceramic dinnerware ourselves. So stone clay was the best material for the pet bowl for me.
靈感: My best friend asked me to make a pet bowl for her cat Taiga, which she had just adopted from an animal shelter. Taiga did not like eating from plastic containers and she often ate too fast causing her to regurgitate the food.
項目時長: The project started in April 2016 in Pennsylvania, United States and finished in October 2020 in Pennsylvania, United States and was exhibited in ARTSPACE 1241 in November - December 2020.
操作流程: The adorable paw is designed to help slow eating. The square exterior base design helps the bowl visually fit in any type of room, while the inner round arch helps prevent the pet's food from getting stuck.
The exterior curves reduce the chance of pets picking up and overturning the bowl. The material of the bowl is also thick and heavy enough that along with the extra foot pads the bowls are difficult for pets to bush the bowl away and also prevent scratching of floors. The bowl is perfectly designed on the sides to make it easier for someone to grab and lift the bowl.
