"There's something incredibly satisfying about a drinking glass that just feels right. You know what I mean: the perfect weight in your hand, a shape that fits naturally to your lips, and maybe even a little something extra that makes you smile every time you reach for it. Austrian designer Florian Seidl gets this, and his Cali glassware series just won a Platinum A' Design Award, proving that even the simplest everyday objects deserve serious design love."
"The Cali series comes from Officina Endorfino, Seidl's creative playground where curiosity meets experimentation. These aren't your standard kitchen glasses. Made from borosilicate glass (the same stuff used in lab equipment and high-end cookware), they're surprisingly lightweight yet durable enough to handle hot and cold liquids without breaking a sweat. But what really catches your eye is how they play with light and perception. The material's unique properties create captivating reflections that mess with your sense of volume and weight,"
Cali glassware is crafted from borosilicate glass to deliver surprising lightness, thermal durability, and resistance to hot and cold liquids. The material produces reflections that alter perception of volume and weight, giving each piece a sculptural presence. Three distinct sizes nest together in a stackable system that saves cabinet space while visually referencing a chalice form to lend subtle sophistication. Designer Florian Seidl applied multidisciplinary product and automotive experience to balance practical function with personality and restrained aesthetics. The series earned a Platinum A' Design Award. The sustainability angle is mentioned but not detailed.
