Many of us feel we're unable to function without a hit of caffeine, and many of us simply enjoy the taste of good coffee, whether it be first thing in the morning or an afternoon refresher. Enhance your daily coffee moment with this beautifully minimalist 3D-printed design created by Kutarq Studio for OTHR.

With a discerning and minimalist eye, Cerco pays homage to traditional jewellery and decorum. Its porcelain handle hugs the cup like a piercing; a nod to the culture of adornment and body art. Cerco’s circular handle is as much a design element as it is a thoughtfully placed handgrip for the perfect sip. An eye-catching espresso cup adorned with a delicate, looping handle.

Cerco's creator—Kutarq Studio—is based in Valencia and founded by architect and designer Jordi López Aguiló in 2012. The studio produces everything from furniture to lighting to interior design and architecture. Each project involves a methodical process that emphasises both material and research. Jordi's work has been exhibited internationally, including at Paris Design Week, Milan Design Week and the Stockholm Furniture Fair.

I love that this animated espresso cup is able to give an original touch to my morning.
