樱花杯
SAKURASAKU Glass
2007
樱花的文化和风情深刻地影响着日本，这让设计师希望能将樱花的浪漫停留在桌面上。他将玻璃杯的底部设计成精巧的樱花形状，当往杯中倒入冰水时，凝结的水汽便能在桌面印上一朵朵盛开的樱花。实用中融入巧思的这款设计，能让欣赏者和使用者都感到惊喜不已，并提醒观者：生活之中，其实是有着很多像这些小水珠一样，能为我们的日常带来愉悦的事物的。
Designed to look like Japanese cherry blossoms (sakura) blooming (saku), this exquisite design is a delight both to look at and to use. This phenomenon is triggered by condensation, and will appear simply by using this glass for its intended purpose. Functionality enables beauty, leaving you to reflect upon how mere dewdrops can lead to such small pleasure in everyday life.
