Form Follows Culture

design for a new relationship with water

about the project
A new set of everyday drinking objects that examines cultural understandings and makes them part of its essential qualities to guide a new, improved, and healthier daily routine. Five different drinking objects, each alters the user’s behavior according to the corresponding form of the drinking object. Each triggers an embedded meaning, causing the user to react and respond to cultural traditions and values principles. Each re-imagines a healthier, more mindful everyday world, advancing the quality of life and increasing the overall well-being of individuals and communities for better cultural development.
