Global Omnium Carafe and Glass

Global Omnium is dedicated, among other activities, to managing the entire water cycle—from catchment and purification to distribution. The company commissioned us to design a carafe and glass set for internal use that could also function as a gift. The objective was to encourage the consumption of tap water, or at least for a company so deeply committed to delivering high-quality drinking water to homes, to lead by example.

Our inspiration came from the small jugs and glasses traditionally placed on bedside tables, within arm’s reach, where the glass itself often served as a lid. Both the glass and the carafe are made from eco-friendly glass. The base of the glass incorporates a silicone sleeve that allows it to act as a stopper without direct glass-to-glass contact, providing a more secure seal and protecting the contents of the carafe when it is not in use.
