Joanne Yau is a ceramic artist, woodworker and architect based in Toronto, Canada. She approaches design as a vessel for everyday rituals — a framework for presence, movement, and being. She is attuned to how we inhabit space, how objects live with us, and how stillness can hold meaning. Her work seeks that numinous threshold between the material and the ineffable — where form meets feeling, and presence meets place.
Her past professional experiences span from Toronto to Helsinki, Nagoya to New York, and includes architectural design, historic reconstruction, millwork fabrication, sustainable strategies, and construction management. This breadth allows her to move fluidly between various scales and scope — from the delicacy of a hand-turned bowl to the complexity of a historic renovation.
