Forma

Field Guide — Autumn 2026

Plates I–VI · Six workshops, observed by hand

Forma A field guide to making things by hand.

Six in-person classes in baking, ceramics, floristry and painting. Each one is a specimen: a date, a price, a maker, and a few hours of quiet attention.

The Index

Six specimens, filed by class.

Search by name, sort the drawer by class, or press a card to look closer. Anything you press is kept in your cabinet for this visit.

Your Cabinet

Pressed, kept, and carried home.

The cabinet is a shortlist, not a booking. Add a specimen from its card and it waits here while you browse the rest of the guide.

0 specimens pressed

    Nothing pressed yet. Open a card and use the seal to keep it.

    Field Notes

    How a class day unfolds.

    1. Find a specimen

      Read the plates, check the date and the number of seats. Every card opens to show its full description and instructor.

    2. Press it into the cabinet

      The seal on each card keeps it in your shortlist. Nothing is reserved and nothing is charged while you decide.

    3. Come and make something

      Classes run between two and four hours, at our studio on Kiln Lane. Materials, tools and coffee are included.

    Pl. VII Long work, slowly. Every class is small enough to be held.

    Visit

    The studio is open on class days, and the kettle is always on.

    Forma runs from a converted print works at 14 Kiln Lane. Seats are deliberately few — between six and fourteen — so that everyone gets time at the wheel, the bench or the big table.
