Production Technology: Crafted with automated pressed soda-lime glass, the Estrella collection embodies the fusion of artisanal quality and industrial sustainability.
Design Challenge: Applying star motifs proportionally to all glasses in the series in the same size wasn't easy. When all glasses stood side by side, all glasses needed to appear harmonious with each other, and it had to be possible to extract and cast from the mold in terms of production criteria.
Research: The most noticeable point observed in the research was the intention to create a durable and elegant bar series, specifically tailored to venues with high turnover such as bars and restaurants, where products are frequently washed and dried, aiming for resilience against breakage.
Inspiration: The Estrella Barware series draws inspiration from kaleidoscopic star motifs and encompasses an exquisite collection.The name 'Estrella,'which means 'star'in Spanish, perfectly captures the essence of this collection.Light bends and refracts across these surfaces,much like it does when traveling through the cosmos,brings a celestial dance to the enjoyment of a well-crafted drink. The non-slip surface and star decorations also make them convenient and easy to grab.
Project Duration: The project began in 2020 the reseach, development and the production of the whole serie was finalized in 2023. Estrella barware series was lastly exhibited in Ambiente fair in 2024.
