朋友聚會時,大家都忙著玩手機(jī),沒人愿意好好聊天?巴西一家酒吧推出了一款專治“聚會玩手機(jī)”現(xiàn)象的啤酒杯,酒杯底部只有一側(cè)有腳,其余部分需要用手機(jī)墊著,杯子才不會倒。這樣,大家在放下酒杯想要看手機(jī)時,只能望機(jī)興嘆,轉(zhuǎn)而跟朋友們聊天交流了。這款杯子的設(shè)計者將其命名為“離線酒杯”,目的就是為了“把人們從在線世界拯救出來”。他還表示,大家也不用擔(dān)心喝冰鎮(zhèn)啤酒時,杯子外側(cè)凝結(jié)的水珠會流到手機(jī)上,因為杯子的設(shè)計形狀會讓水珠順著有腳的那側(cè)直接流到桌上。當(dāng)然,手機(jī)大小形狀不同,就應(yīng)該配不同型號的杯子。設(shè)計者表示,如果“離線酒杯”受到歡迎,他就會陸續(xù)推出各種型號手機(jī)對應(yīng)的酒杯。
Salve Jorge Bar in S?o Paulo has introduced a beer glass that can only stand upright when placed on top of a phone. |
It is a uniquely modern complaint; Going to a bar with friends, only to find they spend the entire time playing with their smartphones instead of engaging in conversation.
One bar in Brazil has found a way to fix this anti-social problem, and for once, the solution was found at the bottom of a glass.
Salve Jorge Bar in S?o Paulo has introduced a beer glass that can only stand upright when placed on top of a phone.
A section of the base of the glass has been cut out, to make drinkers focus on their friends, as opposed to their screens.
Typically, drinkers would put down their glasses to pick up their phones, to surf the internet, or check social media sites, but doing so with this glass will result in your drink being spilled.
Designed by advertising agency Fischer & Friends, the 'Offline Glass' is designed to 'save people from the online world'.
The designers have even addressed potentially damaging condensation from the cold beer dripping into an expensive smartphone and reeking havoc with the inner workings.
The designers say the shape of the glass has been designed so the condensation only drips down one side of the glass to fall on the table, not your phone's screen.
One slight issue maybe the different sizes of the mobile phones out in the market but this is just the first prototype and can be adapted if it takes off.
Flavius Cinira, one of the owners of the bar, told the Telegraph: 'The spirit of Salve Jorge is to bring together friends and everyday warriors, as we used to say, in a happy environment around good food and cold beer.'
Wanderley Romano, co-owner, added: 'The Offline Glass embodies this exactly. It is an invitation for people to come here, after the daily battle, turn off the online world, chat with friends and live in the reality around them, at least for a few hours.'
