"CUPS"

Hello All,
Here is some more info for the "Cup" project.

PROJECT : CUPS

Students will design a most amazing cup. 
We will use this cup to toast the many exciting events as you near Graduation!

Think about: 

What kind of cups are there? Is the cup's design specific to it's function. Is there a specific liquid it is designed to hold. (for example, brandy snifters are designed so the warmth of your hand warms the liquid and shape increases to aromatic experience) Does it have a handle / is the handle made of clay? Is the cup functional at all?
