The Design

About Icy Gelas Koktail

Icy adalah gelas koktail yang dirancang untuk minuman dingin dan koktail berlapis. Setiap unit ditiup dengan mulut di sebuah studio di Finlandia dan dibentuk dalam cetakan kayu. Teknik Venesia kuno menciptakan permukaan retak menyerupai es, sementara bentuknya mengikuti kesederhanaan Skandinavia modern. Bagian bibir gelas diselesaikan dengan api untuk menghasilkan tepi yang halus. Gelas ini berdiameter 80 mm dengan tinggi 100 mm, sehingga terasa kokoh saat digenggam. Setiap gelas ditandatangani dan diberi nomor. Tujuannya adalah menciptakan benda sehari-hari yang tahan lama dan dapat bertahan selama puluhan tahun.

Research: The starting point of the process has been to design objects that the user attaches emotional value to. Glasses are made to last for decades. The contrasts in nature and the way they create harmony is desired to be captured in the collection.
