Foreign.
This is Monocle on Design, a show where we discuss everything from architecture and craft to furniture and graphics.
I'm Nick Minise.
On today's program, we're taking a closer look at the earth beneath our feet.
This is a special episode looking at clay.
Writer Jennifer Lucy Allen delves into the human history of this ancient earthy substance.
We visit the maker, Bacilla Noah at her London studio.
Plus, Adam Wiseman, co founder of Clayworks, reflects on his journey working with the material.
All that coming up on Monocle On Design.
Hello and welcome to today's show.
And welcome, I guess, to the microphone, this show's producer, Mailie Evans.
Mae Leigh.
Let's just cut to the chase.
There's no secret.
Everything needs to be out in the open.
This is definitely an episode that you've pulled together.
Tell us about your obsession with clay.
And can I put pottery in there as well?
I think so.
I thought, what better way to shoehorn my own interest into this programme than to dedicate a show to the material?
