Weight
From my point of view, people can feel the weight from shape, position, gravity and context. In this experience, I did the translation that the meaning of weight is coming from context which is included relation between each tableware.

Cup > Spoon ≥ Dish
As my research, a cup is the most important when people are drinking a cup of tea. Sometimes, spoon and dish are not necessary to drink a cup of tea, and spoon has no role after the first stirring. Therefore, I want to say the importance of the role is the weight in the drinking context.

Cup = ( Spoon + Dish )
Some people need a spoon without dish, a dish without spoon or both of them. Therefore, I design to adjust the weight of importance to this tea set that has same weight.

“Swing spoon”
‘Swing Spoon’ is come from usability of spoon-dish (Spoon + Dish). I had tried lots of shape to combine this two function, but it is really hard to using to cup. This subtle curve shape spoon is not only easy to use as spoon, but also has dish function.
