Seed
Terrain｜陶園籽境

Seed Terrain｜陶園籽境 is a ceramic micro-landscape by ceramic artist ÉPHELIS Kwan Wai Chan (陳筠煒) and architectural designer TAMCHIYAN Carolyn Tam (譚芷茵), presented in THE CONCEPT LAB at deTour 2026. Hand-modelled clay textures and 3D printing shape a sculptural surface that becomes a micro-habitat for plants, reinterpreting the literati-rock tradition of classical Suzhou gardens as a contemporary abstract ceramic landscape. Research prototypes are displayed alongside the work, showing how the living ceramic piece took shape through repeated experiments and firings. It is part of deTour 2026 – design festival BETTER, NOT PERFECT 不完美，更美好: Prototypes for Tomorrow at PMQ元創方. Admission is free.
