The Design

About 2182 Vessel Basong Alak

Ang 2182 Vessel ay isang seramikong basong alak na idinisenyo upang maglaman ng premium na champagne. Ang hugis nito ay tumutukoy sa apat na makasaysayang sisidlang panginom: ang Patera, ang Kylix, ang Tazza cup, at ang champagne coupe. Ang malawak na bukana nito ay nagpapahintulot sa aroma na mabilis na kumalat. Ang pag-inom ay nagaganap sa dalawang yugto. Ang mababaw na itaas na bahagi ay naglalaman ng unang bahagi at sumusuporta sa pandama ng pang-amoy. Ang makipot na gitnang bahagi ay nagpapabagal sa oksidasyon, kaya't ang alak sa mas malalim na ibabang bahagi ay napapanatili ang lasa nito. Ang baso ay may sukat na 50 mm ang lapad, 50 mm ang lalim, at 140 mm ang taas.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties
The wine glass is designed with the feature of big opening shared by the four types of glasses, which can enable the aroma to be quickly diffused. I hope to mobilize the user's senses as much as possible with more attraction from the perspectives of smell and taste.
The depth of the upper part is designed as per the extremely shallow state of the Tazza cup. The Tazza cup was regarded as a symbol of social status in Italy during the 16th century. To drink from such a shallow glass without spillage, the superb craftsmanship as well as the user's attention on the drink itself are also indispensable.

Production Technology
Vessel made of ceramic materials
Design Challenge
The wine glass is designed to specially contain the premium champagne. The shape is designed by reference to four glass shapes of "Patera", "Kylix", "Tazza cup" and "champagne coupe".
Research
The speculative design attempts to encourage the drinkers to more focus on the drinking process with a better drinking experience through the ceramic structure.
Inspiration
Since the shape of wine glass will bring influence on the user's sense of taste and smell, I’ve studied various existing wine glasses during the design to decide on the shape and the wine type it’s suitable to contain.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2021 in London and finished in February 2022 in Jingdezhen.
Operation Flow
The drinking process will consist of two stages: the stage in the shallow upper part and the stage in the deep lower part. When the drinker starts to enjoy the wine in the upper part, the large opening of the glass can help the aroma diffuse more quickly to agitate the olfactory experience. When enjoying the wine in the lower part, because the small diameter in the middle can reduce the oxidation rate of the wine so that the taste will not be changed.
