Design Bridge has developed two new pints, which are much safer than traditional pints. The prototypes consist of Glass Plus (left photo) and Twin Wall (right photo). Glass Plus has a thin, transparent layer of organic resin on the inside and Twin Wall consists of two ultra-thin layers of glass which are joined together, similar to glass in car windshields. Both prototypes ensure that when the glass breaks, the dangerous glass shards are held together securely.
Sportbrands and beer are not often related. Puma however, launches a special “Unity beer” with the upcoming world cup in South Africa in Mind.
The Hamburger Inn in Ohio has found a creative way to generate additional income. Both the glassware and the menus contain ads from local businesses.
Students from the Middlesex University in the UK have invented a beerrobot. The robot can travel a programmed route, and everyone who wants a new beer just needs to put his glass in the holder, the robot will fill it up and continue his route.

Beautiful Holiday Season details at the Conservatorium hotel in Amsterdam - credits Ashkan MortezapourWe often write about collaborations involving Christmas decorations in hotels, particularly the iconic Christmas trees at Claridge’s and, recently, ‘The Jewel of the Season’ at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park in London. But Amsterdam also has several luxury hotels with remarkable festive decorations, including the Conservatorium Hotel. This year, the impressive 4.5-metre Christmas tree in the lobby has been decorated by the Italian jewelry house Pasquale Bruni. Following a successful collaboration with Cartier last year, the hotel is once again presenting a dazzling Christmas tree this season. The additional details, such as the festive atmosphere created around the violins at the entrance, are also wonderful to see and experience. We often stop by ourselves to soak up the ambiance, enjoying a cocktail, a glass of wine, or a meal at Barbounia.
