Lub raj iav raug tsim los ntawm cov phab ntsa uas nyias tsis sib npaug, tau kev tshoov siab los ntawm kev tsim vaj tsev cog zaub (greenhouse), ua rau pom zoo li ib lub kauv kauv tsis muaj qhov kawg thaum tig lub raj. Qhov dav ntawm txhua daim phab ntsa raug xam kom haum rau lub voj voog ntawm lub raj thiab kom nyob sib npaug nrog lub qauv ua ob feem.

- Production Technology
- The glass bottle is sourced by Pavisa in Mexico. The labels were printed on Fasson Classic Crest cotton paper, with combination of debossing, embossing, and foil stamping. The cap is a wooden closure with Birch Wood and natural cork.
- Design Challenge
- One of the biggest challenges is to have the glass bottle spiral seamlessly to create an endless illusion when turned. The design team meticulously calculated the width of each panel to accommodate the bottle circumference and moved them incrementally around.
The design team also had to ensure the panels will be parallel to the glass mold, making sure the design integrity is not being affected when the glass is being pulled out of a 2-part mold. - Research
- The studio learned about the historic context of the distillery. All the spirits produced from the distillery comes from the melted water of the Sierra Nevada. The water is then stored in the original well, known as well one to the locals, hence the name Source One, before distributed throughout the distillery.
The studio studied the distillation process and learned about the harvesting of locally grown and sourced ingredients. Various grains were used in cycles in order to take advantage of the seasonal changes and soil. All of these elements drove home the sustainability aspect of the product. - Inspiration
- Inspired by the stunning and intricate greenhouse architectural elements. The glass structure consists of offset panels that create an endless spiraling illusion when turned.
- Project Duration
- The project started in late 2018 and spanned to late 2019 with revisions and extensions to different variants.
- Operation Flow
- It's a simple normal functioning alcoholic glass bottle. There's no special function to it.
