Journey Map


Initial Sketches


Mostly went for slim and compact designs. Stacking and nestling parts was also a big factor.

Size and Fit


First round of models centered around figuring out the overall size of the product as well as what form and type of connecting design would be best.

Final Model


Moved foward with a desgin that is tall but slim and is able to store all parts inside itself when assembled.

Mostly assembled with screw on pieces the only exception being the tumbler which has a fitted pop on lid.
