The Design
About Trinity Drikkeglas
Trinity er en moderne glasserie, der nytænker drikkeglasset gennem et vendbart design. Hver af de tre dele fungerer i to orienteringer og tilbyder forskellige volumener og oplevelser inden for én enkelt form. Dens minimalistiske geometri fjerner skellet mellem bund og kant, så brugeren kan omdefinere funktionen med en enkel bevægelse. Trinity er fremstillet af holdbart, genanvendeligt borosilikatglas og kombinerer bæredygtighed med præcision, hvilket resulterer i et raffineret, men legende design, der inviterer til interaktion.

- Unique Properties
- Three sizes for various occasions. This set consists of three visually identical glasses with different volumes. The rigid geometry of the shape is enriched not only by colors, but also by tongue-in-cheek evocative design, making these glasses a valued addition to any bar or household. The different volumes of the "stool" half call to be filled with various drinks.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Trinity S: Content 200/200ml, Diameter 103/64mm, Height 130mm
Trinity M: Content 200/300ml, Diameter 103/64mm, Height 160 mm
Trinity L: Content 200/380ml, Diameter 103/64mm, Height 190mm - Tags

- Production Technology
- The Trinity glassware series is made from borosilicate glass, known for its durability and resistance to hot and cold temperature. The glass can be molded and crafted in a variety of thicknesses. It is an infinitely recyclable material that can be re-melted again and again, minimizing waste and environmental impact.
- Design Challenge
- The primary creative challenge was reconciling reversibility with ergonomic and structural integrity. Designing a glass that performs equally well in two orientations required eliminating the conventional hierarchy between base and rim, while maintaining stability, comfort and visual balance.
- Research
- The research question centered on whether a single glass form could successfully operate in two orientations without compromising stability, ergonomics, or aesthetic coherence. Material research focused on the properties of borosilicate glass - thermal resistance, weight reduction potential, and tensile strength - allowing exploration of refined wall thickness while maintaining durability.
- Inspiration
- The project started for the 2024 Traga Open Call. This Drinkware collection originates from the concept of double-use glasses, objects capable of shifting function through inversion. The three glasses are conceived as reversible forms. Each piece is designed to function in two orientations, allowing variations in volume, proportion, and drinking experience. By simply turning the object, the user redefines its purpose.
- Project Duration
- The project was initiated in 2024, in response to the Traga Open Call. Concept development began with research into reversible drinkware and functional double-use systems.
- Operation Flow
- The user intuitively explores both ends of the glass, discovering distinct rim diameters and capacities. The act of turning the glass becomes a part of the ritual. Flow is guided by calibrated geometry. Rim thickness is optimized for comfort and controlled liquid delivery, while curvature directs the beverage smoothly toward the lip.
