The idea comes straight from traditional Japanese tableware: balance, restraint, and a cup you hold in both hands. Gollnick, born in 1966, has run his own studio in Germany since 1997 and has drawn on Japanese design for his whole career. He works by a simple rule taken from that tradition: no object outranks another, since even the smallest piece has a purpose. More than 100 products and awards from iF, the German Design Award and Red Dot have come out of that studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt feels good to hold: the double wall keeps the outside comfortable while the drink stays hot, and iced coffee stays cold longer too. The brushed steel sits as easily next to stoneware as it does on a desk. Stacked, the three sizes make a tidy, sculptural group. And because it is steel, it shrugs off the knocks that chip ceramic cups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for Real Life\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDishwasher safe, according to blomus. Our advice: dry promptly to keep the brushed finish free of water spots, and keep them out of the microwave.
