Ann gives a great lesson on how to design better handles for mugs. She takes on 5 unique designs and provides 2 solutions for each mug. Ann reviews the key elements of handle design (Function, Comfort, and Aesthetics) and gives great tips on the important things to consider when designing a handle. This video is great for beginners and pros alike who may be looking to redesign their handles. Enjoy!
