The Cali glassware series, a creation by Officina Endorfino, blends personality with functionality. Its stackable design not only extends the product line but also subtly evokes the elegance of a chalice. The series features three distinct sizes, all crafted from borosilicate glass. This material allows for various color combinations and its unique properties create captivating reflections, playing with perceptions of volume, weight, and gravity. Additionally, the product packaging is made from recycled cardboard.

- Production Technology
- The Cali glassware series is made from borosilicate glass. The material is known for its strength, durability and temperature resistance. The glass can be moulded and crafted in a variety of very different shapes and thicknesses. It is an infinitely recyclable material that can be re-melted again and again minimizing waste and environmental impact. The packaging is made from recycled cardboard.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was the necessity to create a series of modular and stackable drinking glasses in different sizes that also explore the formal possibilities of the material and make a visual statement.
- Project Duration
- The project was designed in Italy during the summer of 2024 as a quick side study for Officina Endorfino. A free exploration and exercise in glassware design.
- Operation Flow
- Take a glass. Fill it up. Bring it to your mouth. Drink. Enjoy!
- Research
- The design process was based on conceptual and formal research aimed at understanding material properties and opportunities of the category.
Product development and refinement through traditional sketching and 3D modelling. - Inspiration
- Cali has a lot of personality and perfectly fits the identity of Officina Endorfino. The stackable design extends the product line naturally, while projecting its very own character. The shapes used merge the existing form language with a remote echo of an elegant chalice. The main body appears to be floating like a dream on top of the delicate but stable base. Cali dreaming.
