Mine was made out of heat resistant silicone which provided a burn free squeeze function (not to mention dishwasher safe and makes mold making a breeze) . Don;t you hate it when someone designs something you already submitted to competitions and wins stuff for it? I know I do. I designed this same thing two years ago.

I honestly like his presentation skill/graphic presentation wise he was excellent. But the product/prototype that he produced was different to the 3d he is showing here. Anyway, I am sure he spent a lot of time to design this but the thing is it is just not totally functional. He should have gone to a 3d forming company to produce an actual product instead of just using acrylic. The tea infuser he had (around one) in his dossier was already a good design so he has to really top that, which is really difficult. I actually saw his project online from that site.

Most of the form is due to the function. While there is no picture here, in his presentation he showed photos of this process and the helped explain his decisions. this link shows the entire project http://coroflot.com/public/individual_set.asp?name=paul+sukphisit&sort_by=1&c=1&set_id=135972&individual_id=144860 I actually went to school with Paul and he spent a great deal of time testing this design through numerous models.

It is looking nice as an art form but functionality wise? questionable. When you take out the clip the water will drip from that and then you turn it another way and the water comes out from the top as well... so now you have two areas of wet floor/table to worry about.

Who would have guessed that tea design could continue to advance. Looks like a nice upgrade from my tea stick. Who would have guessed that tea design could continue to advance.

It's cute and all, but I think that little drip catcher is gonna be over run. Nice try with the design. It’s cute and all, but I think that little drip catcher is gonna be over run.
