I am a hardworking designer who is very enthusiastic towards any objective I am set. My communication skills help me to be an excellent team player and if necessary a team leader.

Design student Callum Kenny has created a product for the passionate tea drinker seeking the perfect cup of tea.
The perfect cup is composed of four parts: the glass carafe, the three glass temperature bulbs, the tea caddy and filter. Based on the principles of the Galileo thermometer the three bulbs each indicate an optimum brewing temperature and work through the changing densities in water. The user only has to choose a temperature bulb that compliments the tea, place it in the carafe watch it sink and eventually float indicating the water is ready. Users measure the required amount of loose leaf tea from the tea caddy in to the filter and observer the changing colour of water in the carafe. Slowly the water colour deepens to the liking of the user and the brewing process can be stopped with the removal of the filter. Then the perfect cup can be enjoyed.
