FAQ
I would like to change the date or time of my booked session. How do I do that?
You can change the date and time of your booking up to 2 hours before the session. You can do this by clicking the “change booking” button in your booking confirmation email. If you want to cancel or reschedule your session within two hours before the start time, please email us, and we will do it for you.
Please note: In case of a no-show without notification from the member, a 30 CHF penalty will be charged to your credit card. You can find more information in our terms and conditions.
Can I pause my membership?
The membership cannot be paused but only cancelled. We suggest canceling your membership before the automatic renewal and resubscribing after your break.
Can I bring my own material to the studio?
It is strictly forbidden to use external materials such as clay, glaze, wax, and other materials that will be fired in the kiln. All materials processed in the workspace must come from the studio, as they have been tested and approved for our kiln. Unknown and untested materials might seriously damage the kiln.
How do I book a workspace session?
To reserve a session, log in to your account in your customer area (here) and click on “new booking.” The schedule for the next two weeks will appear, and you can reserve your session.
Is it mandatory to be a member to use the workspace?
Yes, you must have a valid membership at the time of booking and reserve the session online through the customer area. It is not possible to use the space without booking online a session.
My creation is broken or has a crack; do I still have to pay for it?
If the piece cracked or broke before or during firing, you must pay the full price (30 CHF/Kg, 35 CHF/Kg if you use underglazes) because the crack or breakage is due to improper handling on your part. If the piece breaks accidentally while we are moving it or if we drop it, you do not have to pay for it. If the piece cracks or breaks after the bisque firing and you do not intend to glaze it, the price is lower (15 CHF/Kg). If you want to discard it after paying, please do not leave it in the studio; but we kindly ask you to take it with you and dispose of it yourself.
As a new member, will there be someone to explain how the studio works on the first day?
Yes. In order to ensure safe and optimal use of the workspace, a mandatory introduction is scheduled with every new user of the studio on the first day of the session and at the beginning of the session. The introduction session lasts approximately 5-10 minutes, is free of charge, and it is the member’s responsibility to approach the staff for the introduction and inform them that they are a new member.
I would like to come to the studio with a friend, is that possible?
Unfortunately, space is limited, and we aim to maintain a relaxing and intimate environment. Therefore, it is not possible to bring friends, relatives, children, or babies into the studio, whether they are participating in ceramics or not.
Do you provide a space to leave personal belongings or tools?
We offer our members only a space to leave their works-in-progress creations, but we do not provide a space to leave personal tools, aprons, or ceramics-working items. Therefore, if you bring your own tools for working with ceramics, please take them home after the session.
