About Base Glasi ya Kunywa

Muundo wa mfululizo wa Base unazingatia utendaji wa glasi ya kunywa, ukiangazia tofauti kati ya kuwa tupu au kujaa. Glasi hizi zinatengenezwa kutoka kioo cha borosilicate. Nyembamba na nyororo, lakini zenye msingi imara wenye kina kingi. Mfululizo huu unajumuisha ukubwa wa aina tatu: 200ml, 330ml, na 500ml, na umeundwa kuwezesha upangaji. Ufungashaji umetengenezwa kwa karatasi iliyochakatwa upya, ukisisitiza uendelevu.

Production Technology: The Base 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.
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: The design of Base is looking at the basic function of a drinking glass and the contrast between its two states of being - empty and full. Delicate and light at the top and solid at the base with a lot of depth. The transparent material setting the stage for a great experience. So, is the glass half empty or half full?
Project Duration: The project was designed in Italy during the summer of 2024 as a quick side study for Officina Endorfino. An exploration and exercise in glassware design.
Operation Flow: Take a glass. Fill it up. Bring it to your mouth. Drink. Enjoy!
