Floating your boat

If you're anything like us, your kitchen cupboards will be a hodgepodge of mismatched drinking receptacles: shot glasses with unfunny slogans printed on them; the remaining survivors from that cheap set of glasses which tend to shatter if you so much as look at them; and the stained and chipped coffee mug your mum gave you that you can't bear to part with.

Don't you think it's time your kitchen cupboards played host to something a little classier? If so then you could do worse than Molo Design's brand new range of glassware. Suitable choice, too, at the cusp of Design Week.

Molo have been around for a couple of years now, providing an outlet for the designery leaning of architects Forsythe + MacAllen. So what do glasses designed by architects look like? Well, for a start everything from the tea cup to the champagne flute is made from clear borosilicate glass so as not to taint your beverage.

And if that weren't enough, each receptacle is suspended in a delicate cradle so as to avoid pesky condensation marks on your equally groovy coffee table. Plus, the glass is heat resistant, so you never have to put your hot chocolate down for fear of scalding yourself.

Just remember not to put them in the dishwasher. Your inner glass snob would never forgive you.
