About This Design

The Glass is Twice as Big as it Needs to Be Mug

The Glass is Twice as Big as it Needs to Be Mug

Any engineer could tell you that a product's design should include what we like to call 'overage'. That means that whatever the thing needs to do, you make sure it can do it better than is necessary. You should be glad, for example, that bridges are designed that way. But when it comes to this glass... well, a careful analysis shows that it contains just 50% of its capacity. That's a lot of overage, which contributes to a lot of excess material, excess mass, and (not to put too fine point on it) excess. So on careful review, our verdict is that this glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Just one of four carefully crafted answers to that eternal question: Is the glass half empty, or is it half full?

This is a gorgeous mug that makes me feel as though I am outdoors in my Hosta garden, on a beautiful day in Spring! The printing is lovely and sharp just like my painting. I shall be displaying this mug at an exhibition soon!

Experiencing this design firsthand was a pleasure. It's charming, cute, and captivating. The handle is sufficiently wide, ensuring it's very comfortable to grip. I appreciate that it's printed in the US, and I'm hopeful that in the future the mugs too. The print and colors are bright and vivid. The specific style of the mug, with the inside and handle colors, adds something extra to the design, making it elegant and modern in style.
