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!

My sisters and Mom and I love Christmas and the Holiday season in general, so I thought how perfect to be able to personalize one of our fave Holiday movies! They came out beautifully and my sisters and Mom were very touched! See for yourself in my picture attached! 2 out of 4 were Perfect! The printing turned out badly for 2 of 4 and they were also broken in shipping. Zazzle was amazing and shipped out 2 new replacements that were perfect!! So 4 out of 4 were perfect! Excellent customer service!!

I ordered this as a Christmas gift to my boss that just rescued such a sweet puppy! The gift arrived almost a week earlier than expected. 10/10 would recommend! The print could’ve came out a little better, but I’m happy with it.
