Because we’re made of commitment with ourselves and others, Scopuli is a two cup of coffee that warm each other when they’re together. Because we’re so much warmer when we’re in love, it is much better to take a cup of coffee with your warm.

Everytime an act of love, everyday and act of friendship, every moment a warm act of affection. 

These two cups are made of aluminium and ceramic, or aluminium and blown glass. The ball part, the cup part, is made of ceramic and lower part, the handle part, is made of aluminium.

They’re shape happened with the exploration of a heart shape. It would be suggestive to it to look like a heart, but it couldn’t be too obvious or it would be just another distant and superficial object with no intimacy.

It should be a close gift for a close person with a close porpose of commitment and intimacy because people need to feel close to someone and to feel the warm of someone in they’re lives.

Scopuli can warm your coffee when you want it. Scopuli can warm your tea when you feel cold and it is possible to be done because Scopuli can store an amount of energy that can make your coffee a litlle bit more enjoyable and your tea a little bit warmer.

In the handle of the cup, there’s a reed and a magnet that opens an incorporated heating system, in both cups in opposite sites, and they can only be activated when the cups are together. Once the magnet of one of the cups is near the reed of the other cup, it starts de heating system.

It collects the energy in to 53 flexible lithium batteries inside the handle and it can warm the cup until 60 degrees. Once the energy is over, you can put it on the charger and get it ready for the next day.

Once you get together with your other half, you will feel the heat of your love.
