MEETINGS
Before creating and designing this mugs, I had a meeting with the family members that wished to have their names typographically created. I wanted to understand their personalities and apply it to the typography. Also, in order to design their name it was important to understand their connection to the matriarch.

Definition
A mug is a type of cup typically used for drinking hot drinks, such as coffee, hot chocolate, or tea. It is usually cylindrical in nature.
Flat vs. Cylinder
I embraced the cylinder and realized that by being circular, it was creating the form of a big warm hug.
This matriarch was loved by many and embraced her loved ones fully. I wanted to wrap their names around the mug, encasing it, creating a full circle.
Response
The family responded positively on the designs. They believed that their names would never be called again and having a mug they can drink from every day with that special name given by the matriarch was extremely touching to them.
