Coffee cups bring you the basic knowledge of aesthetic coffee cups.

If you don't think traditional coffee cups will improve, you're making a big mistake. Through his bold attempt, David Pierre, an American artist and university professor, constantly challenged the convention in design, adopted new technology to produce cups with unique shapes, and successfully applied his attempts in business. He shows people the appearance of the coffee cup that will be popular in the future, which is a highly aesthetic work of art that is streamlined and can blend with the curve of the lips. People can think of the cup as a bird or a small glider docked on the lawn, depending on how the smooth lines and shapes touch you. David Pierre has held exhibitions in the United States, Japan and South Korea, and his "2007 Clay National Exhibition" is currently on display at the Kentucky Museum of Art.

Many people believe that with the development of ceramic technology for thousands of years, there will be no major breakthrough in the appearance of hand-made appliances. Moreover, strange-looking cups are difficult to use in daily life, which further confirms this point of view. After several years of pottery, David gradually realized that the shape design of all traditional coffee cups is too limited by the production and production process, rather than taking into account the needs of the cup users. So, how should a cup be designed to match people's hands and lips perfectly? David believes that it should not be just for the sake of being unique. He designed a reformed cup to illustrate the problem through various methods. It is unique and beautiful in appearance, and it also has high practicability. The oval shape can make the center of gravity of the cup fall into the palm of the hand and is not easy to break. The shape of the cup is designed according to the shape of the hands, lips, and the volume that can hold the liquid. The undulating rim of the cup is more consistent with the lips and prevents the liquid from spilling from the opposite end of the handle. Moreover, people can pick it up at will, whether it is the handle or the cup body, the feel is much more comfortable than the traditional cup. Therefore, from any point of view, this cup is very attractive. Of course, in actual production, factories prefer neat rims, which makes it much easier for them to do. Traditional cups are designed around a straight line, and workers can easily make them on lathes or other equipment. But the neat appearance that hasn't changed all the time makes the user feel bad. Instead of taking orders from the production process, David broke with the traditional method and used the simplest hand tools to carve the desired shape on a piece of mud, jumping out of the limits of the production process.

David's change to the cup is not a random change to the old shape, as people see in the coffee chain. He tries to use simple methods to create complex shapes, but he can still reflect the overall coordination and simplicity. In order to achieve this coordination, he spent a lot of time studying various shapes. In all parts of the cup, many reflect a feeling of the user, but this feeling is not necessarily conscious. David believes that the ideal shape of the cup, all its edges and surfaces should be in a state of harmony, no matter how you look at it, how you feel, it is perfect, every curve, every outline, every shadow, even reflection. Everything seems so necessary and natural that it will never make people feel the urge to change.

A lot of David's design inspiration comes from the strong and direct perception of visual patterns, just like the auditory perception of music. Sometimes in an extremely simple design, perception plays a dominant role. He also tries to keep people away from troubles and become cheerful and positive through shape. David's cup can be seen as a bird landing on a wire, a high-speed yacht, or something elegant. People can use their imagination and unique sense of use to experience the happiness that designers want to bring to users.

In order to achieve the best visual and tactile effect, David will pay great attention to the selection and production of materials. He designed the process according to his own imagination, using very durable, glossy ceramics to make the work, and painting the work with pure transparent or translucent glaze to emphasize its appearance and texture. The final product must be carefully considered, with an accuracy of 100%, and it is also very professional in practicality, which makes people feel relaxed in their hands, escape the noise and discomfort of daily life, and get a temporary mental rest.
