In our everyday life, we all see things from different perspectives; our vision is constantly changing, and to me, it is important that my projects tackle this issue.
Cuadriga
The Cuadriga set combines aesthetics and functionality: the tray’s wings allow for a comfortable grip and prevent annoying spills, just like the four convenient housings that hold the cups in place.
Moreover, Cuadriga was also designed to stimulate creativity: the cups’ housings can, in fact, contain spoons, sugar cubes, chocolate, or anything else you wish to enjoy along with coffee.
