Bringing powerful LED technology to a daily essential
Our friends at NextLED asked us to help them develop a new application for their powerful LED technology: a tumbler handle that can be used everyday, whether it be in the office, jobsite, or garage.
The outcome is a unique design with a 360° LED array and a sturdy knurled aluminum handle featuring a flattened area for brand licensing opportunities.

Creating a natural angle for a unique lighting concept
We sketched a wide variety of concepts, and the winner was a concept featuring a 360° lens which allows the user to hold the mug naturally in a variety of positions.

Ensuring design intent all the way to the factory
We quickly moved into 3D, creating spec drawings and supporting the overseas factory as needed to ensure the manufacturing matched the design intent as closely as possible.
Deliver
A bold design that brings unexpected convenience to your favorite mug
With bright LEDs, a futuristic lens design, and a knurled metal handle, the resulting design shines brightly and turns heads, creating an impactful addition to the NextLED product portfolio.
