Design and Production of a Pair of Decorative Flower Pot for the Main Auditorium of Takoradi Polytechnic:Ghana
Design and production of flower pots have been in existence for so many years. Presently, they are produced with much improvement and modern technology as compared to ancient times. The auditorium complex of Takoradi Polytechnic comprises two computer laboratories and other offices. The main auditorium is meant for gathering of students, and also for hosting conferences, seminars for both local and international programs. However, for the main auditorium to look attractive and beautiful, it must contain certain artifacts for the purposes of interior decorations. This study seeks to display the design and subsequent production of a pair of decorative flower pot to hold artificial flowers to enhance the aesthetic value of the main auditorium of Takoradi Polytechnic. The technique for production was the “thrown and joined” method. Abonko clay was the main material used for the production. Painting technique as a form of decoration and finishing was very efficient and effective in the production of the pots. Experimental and Descriptive Research methods based on the quantitative and qualitative research approaches were employed. It is recommended among other things, that Ceramists and other Ceramic Artists as well as students experiment with other materials and techniques in the production of flower pots, especially customized pots to bring variety in the field flower pot production.
