Jianshan Pottery Canteen takes the former Yingge Elementary School building as its site, inviting users to enter Yingge's ceramic culture through the time of a meal. Starting with the selection of tableware, users experience the forms, glazes, and firing traces of ceramic pieces during dining. After the meal, the ceramic walking guide leads them to local kilns, extending the connection between each vessel and Yingae's ceramic industry. By introducing a system for using and adopting B-grade ceramics, the Y: 0.17 m brings overlooked tableware back to the everyday dining table and turns the idle school building into a public canteen where visitors and residents can learn about ceramics and share local experiences.
