A House for Clay, Tea, Linen & Community.
I’m creating a new space in Luzern — a place where clay, tea, and community can grow together in a more open and accessible way.
I recently got the chance to take over my good friend’s shop right next to ours. It’s directly connected to our current space, but positioned on Bruchstrasse, the main street of our neighborhood. This gives us the visibility, flow, and openness — and allows us to bring our studio and our shop together under one roof.
In this expanded space, we will go beyond workshops and offer pottery that is accessible throughout the day. You’ll be able to stop by, sit down with clay, create at your own rhythm — without booking in advance. More room, more time, more freedom to make.
Alongside this, we will build a Matcha & Tea Bar, create a brighter area to show ceramics, linen, and jewelry, and host community gatherings that welcome everyone in the neighborhood. This step isn’t about starting something new from zero — it’s about growing what already exists, strengthening our roots, and keeping our Bruchquartier full of creativity, warmth, and handmade energy.
My Story & My Projects.
I’m Paulina. My life moves between Lucerne, Lithuania, and Bali — and everything I create comes from my heart, my heritage, and a quiet wish to bring softness into the world.
Seven years ago, I opened the stories. Back then it was just me, a few shelves, and a dream to gather meaningful objects that felt alive. I never imagined how deeply this place would connect me to people. The community grew slowly, beautifully — through conversations in the shop, shared tea, curious questions, and kind faces returning again and again. I learned that a small shop can become a meeting point, a pause in someone’s day, a place where people feel at home.
A little later came sun + her, shaped from linen, jewelry, and rituals that carried my own culture and memories. And once again, the community around me shaped the brand — through what you loved, what you asked for, what you resonated with. It became a quiet exchange: I created from my heart, and you met me there.
Then, four years ago, moon + clay entered my life. Clay arrived exactly when I needed grounding. It healed me, held me, and brought me back to myself. And the moment I began sharing clay with others, everything changed. I saw people arrive stressed and leave softened. I saw strangers become friends. I saw community forming around a table full of clay, tea, and presence.
These projects are not just businesses — they are chapters that grew through community. Through you. Through people who returned, who trusted, who shared stories, who brought their creativity, their vulnerability, their joy. And now comes the next chapter.
Bringing moon + clay, sun + her, and the stories together under one roof feels like coming home. A space shaped by hand, filled with clay, linen, jewelry, rituals, tea, and warm gatherings — but also shaped by the people who walk through the door.
I will craft many elements myself — the tiles, the shelves, the counters. But this space is not only mine. It’s meant for the community that has grown with me all these years. A place to arrive, create, breathe, connect, learn, slow down, and simply belong.
Some parts — the structure, electricity, plumbing, and new kiln — need skilled hands and support. And this is why I’m opening this project to my community. Because this next chapter is only possible if we build it together.
Building This Space Together.
To bring this space to life, I’m launching a crowdfunding campaign — a way for all of us to build something meaningful together.
Your support will help me:
✨ renovate and transform the new corner space — opening it up, rebuilding the walls, refreshing the floors, and creating a bright, warm home for clay, tea, linen, and jewelry
✨ build the Matcha & Tea Bar — a calm corner for quiet moments, shared cups, and simple rituals
✨ create a spacious pottery area — with more tables, tools, shelves, and enough room for everyone to work comfortably
✨ purchase essential pottery equipment so workshops can run smoothly, reliably, and with more capacity
✨ build thoughtful displays for clothes, jewelry, ceramics, and ritual goods — handmade in wood, and brass, clay
You can choose a reward that speaks to you — a handmade piece, a creative experience, a workshop, something for your home, or a symbolic gesture that becomes part of the space forever.
Every contribution matters. Every presence matters. Every name becomes part of this house I’m shaping.
