A la fois original et décalé, un petit clin d’oeil pour « One Coffee Cup a Day » une excellente initiative et un intéressant projet de longue haleine initié par le jeune designer Bernat Cuni consistant à créer et présenter une tasse à café par jour. Présentées quotidiennement sur un site dédié, chaque tasse peut en outre être proposée à la vente après une fabrication à l’unité en impression 3D réalisée en collaboration avec Shapeways. Tous les détails en images et le process de fabrication en vidéo dans la suite !

About the design : The cups are designed as a creative exercise and as a proof of concept for digital fabrication, in order to achieve something unthinkable some time ago: Create a product from the idea to the consumer in less than 24 hours. Some designs are compromised due to time constrains, but that’s OK. Not all the cups are ment to be the best and most functional of all coffee cups ever, they are designed with style, fun and diversity on mind.
About the material : The coffee cups are 3D Printed in Glazed Ceramics. Glazed Ceramics are food safe, recyclable and heat resistant. The glaze is heatable up to 1000 degrees celcius, at which point the glaze will start to damage. 3D Printed Glazed Ceramics material properties are exactly the same as standard ceramics as it is produced with fine ceramic powder which is bound together with binder, fired, glazed with lead-free, non-toxic gloss finish. For some designs with clear bottoms, the bottom side may remain unglazed. Glazing reduces definition of design details, for example grooves will fill with glaze. up to 1 mm of glaze can be added in certain areas.This means that some cups might look much smoother once printed than how they look on the drawings, keep that in mind if you purchase any of them.
