Shoko Tamoto Design
The HARIO brand in Japan has long been the source of innovative glass production and experiments in form. The HARIO brand is world renowned for its superb products for coffee in the home and in the hospitality sector.
Bringing the development up to date, the designers in association with TG International in Taipei have created a new interpretation of glassware that is significantly better suited to the needs and aspirations of society in the 21st century.
Coffee and tea need patience, timing, and attention to temperature to bring them to perfection. All of these are integrated into the new line which indeed is a revival of the traditional Japanese stringency in design.
