The Design

About Raw Série de Xícaras de Café

Raw é uma série de xícaras de café em porcelana que inclui uma xícara de espresso, uma xícara de americano, uma xícara de latte, uma xícara de chá e um coador (dripper). Cada peça é feita de porcelana leve e apresenta superfícies entalhadas inspiradas nas formas de conchas e águas-vivas. Os entalhes reduzem o peso de cada peça e tornam as alças mais ergonômicas. O coador comporta até 24 gramas de café e prepara bebidas para duas pessoas. A superfície externa entalhada também impede que o coador deslize ou role quando apoiado de lado. A série foi concebida para valorizar o ritual do café coado.

Tags: Porcelain, Experience, Coffee Ritual, Passion
Production Technology: Porcelain / Plastic forming method
Design Challenge: The challenge in this project was arranging the size of dripper. We analyzed the datas about Pour-Over Coffee brewing ritual and came up with the perfect dimensions. It has a chamber for brewing coffee for maximum 2 people. It can hold up to 24 grams of coffee in total. It is also a very light product with the savings in porcelain material. At the same time, drippers have a rolling problem when placed sideways on the table. We wanted to resolve this issue. Thanks to its carved outer surface, we prevented sliding and rolling movements.
Research: By observing the ritual of brewing coffee, we adjusted the measures that can take a measure of coffee into the drippers' chamber. We also revised our project by taking the opinions of baristas and coffee lovers. In conclusion, we designed lighter forms and came up with shell and jellyfish looking carvings on the outside of the surfaces. Which represents our passion in coffee.
Inspiration: Raw collections form inspiration comes from random pattern sketches with a pretty dreamy and passionate sense. The collection has points that inspired from natural forms and sea animal patterns. We wanted to create an organic and dynamic form to adapt it to the coffee brewing ritual.
Project Duration: in Spring 2022 in Istanbul, Turkey
