Distorted Drinking Cups

Jerome Olivet's Concept Coffee Mugs Bring Modern Art to Your Kitchen

Your morning cup of coffee is about to look a helluva lot different if Jerome Olivet has anything to say about it. Olivet's concept coffee mugs turn convention on its head with their wonderfully bizarre designs.

Olivet's concept coffee mugs are guaranteed to look nothing like any coffee mug you have ever seen. Most of these mugs look like they belong in a modern art museum as opposed to a kitchen cupboard. Some of them look too strange to serve any use, while others look much too nice to sip coffee from.

Olivet's concept coffee mugs are a great example of functional modern art. I am all for abstract art projects, but when those same projects serve a real-world purpose, it makes them all the better. Check out these crazily distorted coffee mugs in the featured gallery. You'll never look at your cup of joe the same way again.
