Hot days and cool drinks
With homewares product development you form close relationships to artists and vendors who take ideation to fruition. Whatever I imagined, drew, explained these incredible artists worked with careful movements to forge glass in the fire. I spent a lot of time in various parts of Mexico working with small family owned factories where blowing glass has been passed down from one generation to another. All glass used was from recycled corona bottles. As apart of the summer collection we offered our customers a range of adventure mugs, I worked with the graphic designer to design the copy that would be matched into every mug. I worked with China to create reactive glaze ceramic mugs and unicorn shaped jar glasses. The outcome of the summer trend collection was so well received I had to expedite additional order.
