About Wave ガラス製食器
Waveは、ドリンクとデザートのためにデザインされたガラス製食器コレクションです。コレクションには、ウイスキータンブラー、ロングドリンクグラス、アイスクリームカップが含まれます。それぞれのアイテムは、海の波の幾何学からインスピレーションを得た緩やかな曲線を持つテクスチャー表面を備えています。リズミカルな輪郭は視覚的な奥行きを生み出すとともに、心地よいグリップ感をもたらします。グラスはソーダ石灰ガラスを用い、自動プレス機によって製造されています。波状表面の肉厚は量産に適するよう最適化されました。Waveは、古典的なリブ加工のドリンクウェアを現代的に再解釈した作品です。

- Production Technology
- It is produced from soda lime glass using the automatic press machine. Glass is the most suitable material for both indoor and outdoor use, and it is healthy and environmentally friendly.
- Design Challenge
- Form of the products drew inspiration from the idea of translating the fluidity, rhythm, and harmony of ocean waves into tangible glass objects. Applying the wave form to products of varying sizes, ensuring continuity, and creating a product collection were challenging. The wall thickness distribution of the wavy surfaces had to be carefully optimized for mass production.
- Research
- The project aimed to reinterpret classic ribbed drinkware with a contemporary approach, imbuing it with dynamic and innovative qualities. By exploring how geometry of nature can influence both the aesthetic and functional aspects of glassware design, the form of the products was derived from organic forms and repetitive patterns found in nature. The resulting designs challenge traditional perceptions of form and texture while also providing a pleasant grip and offering a new sensory and visual experience.
- Inspiration
- Wave is inspired by the infinite cycle of ocean waves and the elegant geometry within water itself. Each curve of a wave carries the flawless mathematics of nature and a rhythm that invites a deep sense of serenity.
- Project Duration
- The project which started in February 2024, was completed in January 2025 and exhibited at the 2025 Ambiente fair.
- Operation Flow
- Its form creates a three dimensional sense of motion on glass with its dynamic lines inspired by the fluid energy of waves. The rhythmic contours on its surface capture a fleeting moment of the ever shifting form of water.Each line reflects the natural rise and fall of a wave, while its bold structure offers a modern and sculptural aesthetic.
