A ceramic vessel sized and weighted for ikebana — the Japanese flower-arrangement tradition where the vessel is treated as a participating element rather than a passive holder. Ikebana vases are typically low-and-wide, off-center, and visually weighted asymmetrically; the pinholder (kenzan) seats inside to hold the stems. The vessel decisions interact with the arrangement decisions; the two are read together.
House vocabulary — terms ForMatter uses with intent.
Materials and processes for people who design and make things.
A local-first library of materials, processes, applications, and finishes — equal weight, citable everywhere, so a student can move from "what is this" toward "what's actually buildable here, now, by me." Part of the renato.design ecosystem — sibling of Plenum, Specimen, Ingenue, gesture, graf, and the Renato Rhino plug-ins. Form and matter, inseparable.
Half of teaching materials is teaching how the material is made into the thing. The standard subscription library was always light on that half. The wedge here isn't better samples or a prettier interface — it's treating Process as a peer entity, not a footnote.
