Makiko Nakamura's cups







Makiko Nakamura created these cups which look like they cannot really be used to hold any type of liquid. But in fact are not only perfectly leak-proof, they also protect the user from grabbing too hot cup. You see they are made out of two layers. One transparent that contains the liquid and one white with holes. Thanks to that the hand is never in contact with the inner layer and the air in the holes helps disperse the heat. Great design!
