先摘抄一下它前身的介绍(英文):It's an ordinary mug,with a slightly square handle that's big enough to fit two fingers through.Since people want their very own personal cup,we've assembled together a variety of colors.//More normal than normal.A mug that couldn't be any more normal than it is - the kind of mug that comes to mind when you hear the word "mug".Since it's something that is used on a daily basis,something that is used in all kinds of situations,a great deal of precision is necessary in this "normal".Making round things perfectly round - it's something that seems obvious,but it's actually the most difficult thing of all the achieve with ceramic ware.We've achieved this high-precision "normal" by building upon these obvious things one by one through the hands of the craftsman.By becoming just a litter better,the "normal" we experience every day seems to make our daily lives just that little bit better too.

little bit better 就是+-0这个品牌所能投射到你的意识层面的一个点,还有比如 normal,对生活不需要与别人格格不入,但又不是完全没有标准,要的就是“这样就好”

Quasi Lap Outed 说的也是另外一个很重要的标准,看一件设计和掏钱买一个商品的是不完全一样的,促成消费行为的往往是一些很实用的衡量,比如清洗,存放,和我自己配不配,成功的商品和设计物品的区别就在于此,所以我觉得相对于风格上的纠结,怎么把消费者这种最自然最本质的需求很好的用设计的方式来回答更有意思,有时候就是一种材质,一种颜色,一种体量

俺来发表点意见。设计者像是设计大师,虽然我对他了解不多。像杯子这样冒视简单的东西,所承载的设计内容还是很多的。最最重要的是你想买到哪里,你的消费群体是什么?要区分这个,简单,看你要买到哪个销售商,卖给walmart, Target 还是Crate and Berrel。这三个等级的销售商,对产品的要求是完全不同的。Walmart最低端,Target中端,Crate and Berrel算是高端,其他的极顶的品牌店不再讨论范围。walmart对产品的要求一般是通俗,没有人讨厌就可以,Target要求就高一些,所以Target愿意请大师来设计商品,著名的是micheal Grave设计的一系列家庭用品。而Crate and Berrel是有自己很强的设计队伍。他们面对的中产阶级,讲究的设计和情调。我觉得这个杯子不算是很有情调的东西,很简单,更像是卖给Target等级的销售商。所以如果他卖给Target,是不错的设计,卖给Walmart那就太糟糕了,买个Crate and Berrel,又太简单了一些。就这样,我的观点,谢谢分享。
