Pouch


Designed by Olivia Decaris (2010), pouch is a malleable carafe that enables the consumer to fill up their glass by pulling and squeezing the container, with beverages including beer and wine. Inspired by the cow’s udder mechanism and symbolism, Pouch proposes an innovative way to serve, consume and share drinks.



Materials and process:
The product is made of food-grade liquid silicone rubber. The material is tasteless, sustainable and safe according to general health and safety rules. Pouch is Heat and cold resistant: it could be stored in the fridge for cooling.




According to its shape and thickness, the object requires being rotomoulded. The rotation moulding techniques enables to obtain a very thin layer of material that will expand when filled up with liquid. That process also allows an ongoing self production.
