Camp Classics
These camp mugs were designed from pencil sketch to finished product, and became the highest grossing mug collection in Starbucks history. Taking classic camping equipment in mind, these mugs were designed to keep drinks warm and hands cool while serving up some serious style.
Copper
Moments
These copper pieces pull from materials in the Starbucks roastery. The rubberized black elements evoke the utility of the barista’s trade, while the finesse of the coffee scoop references midcentury Italian service ware.
The Feel of Hand-crafted
These mugs were created to deliver warmth and authenticity. Each detail was communicated explicitly with vendors to appear hand-crafted while also delivering the consistency of Starbucks.
