Karolina Lach
Karolina Lach is a digital designer and ceramic artist born in Warsaw, Poland. She holds a BFA from The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art (NY) and an MA in Typeface Design from The University of Reading (UK). Her extensive design experience spans everything from user interfaces, wayfinding, and branding, to logotypes and typefaces.
She began taking ceramics classes in 2015 and immediately looked for ways to incorporate her interest in letterforms into the medium. Frustrated with the limitations of wheel-thrown forms and superficial surface decoration, she moved onto handbuilding and began incorporating three-dimensional typographic elements into the structure of the pieces. She continues to evolve her ceramic practice alongside her design and teaching work.
Her typeface designs have been exhibited in the United Kingdom, Poland, and the United States, and her ceramics have earned a Certificate of Typographic Excellence from the Type Directors Club.
After having spent many years in New York City, she has recently relocated to and is currently based in Pittsburgh, PA.
