Camping Cappuccino Set 

This five-week project focused on designing a cappuccino coffee set for campsite use, emphasizing a cohesive family of forms shaped by the context of outdoor drinking. The design was constrained by portability and environment, requiring each piece to be purposeful and efficient. The final set maximizes space utilization, with all components nesting inside one another to store neatly within the kettle for backpack travel.
