Mouthcup

I made this project with the same intentions as the “Lolly lab” but with another approach to that same idea. This mug is an example of the process of an experiment. I tried to design the world inside a mug by considering the inside as a living organism. The organism pulls the user inside its world: the consumer experiences a different side of a well-known object. The world of an organism evolved out of the synthetic society of human utilities.

In all its simplicity the mug is very usable for the consumer. My vision of the mug suggests an infringement in the safe and predictable surroundings of user and utilities. I create a new, less predictable but nonetheless a more dangerous world. A human world that isn’t so safe after all.
