RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Chinese people drink tea, pay attention to the term of "taste". In the busy life, make a pot of tea and drink it in a quiet place can eliminate fatigue and relax mood. In addition to many warm functional designs, this tea tumbler is not inferior to other ordinary water cups in design sense. The designer integrates the elements of youth, fashion, simplicity, line sense and so on into the cup design. Every part and detail is full of smooth and mellow texture.
CHALLENGE: The hole below is the main water outlet. In order to make the water flow smoothly and avoid the retention of tea, the designer specially increased the density of the hole, and at the same time, it can prevent the overflow of tea residue. The hole on the side is mainly for introducing water to make the tea leaves fully soaked, so the hole diameter should be properly adjusted to help the tea making effect.
