Happy Lab
Welcome To Happy Lab!
Hello! I'm Guler , the artist and the director of my dream; Happy Lab.I was a diverse professional with over 10 years of international experience in marketing and management, then for the last 3 years,I was a full-time ceramics enthusiast. Although 2003 was the year I had my first therapeutic experience with clay and ceramics,I had to put it on a halt and concentrate on my business career till 2018. There,I remember the day I realized the hours I spent in the ceramics studio was the happiest of the hours I spent in my working life!Realizing that,without any hesitation,I had shifted all my time to ceramics studio! I had worked with 3 ceramicists who are excelled in different areas of ceramics and I focused on underglaze ceramics decoration. Then,boldly,I started to dream of founding my own studio where I can create&share with others. And now here it is; Happy Lab!
