This graduation report presents a new mold making approach for Royal
Delft. The traditional production trajectory starts with a positive model and
pouring plaster mold parts onto it one by one, producing a negative casting
mold for one shape. This new proposal takes the plaster mold parts as a
starting point, combining them into a modular system that can be modified
continuously in order to produce many variations of a shape without starting
from scratch for every new shape. The benefit of this approach is that
shapes such as plates, vases and boxes can be quickly tailored to individual
customers, changing elements, adding personal texts and creating custom
vector reliefs.
