Sorapot" teapot for enjoying the movement of tea leaves
Roth's motto is to "find a way to take a product that seems to have no room for improvement and turn it into something with high added value. Vacuum cleaners were considered to be a finished product, and there was no room for designers. However, Dyson succeeded in transforming the vacuum cleaner into a high-value-added product by making it possible to see the dust it sucks up.
The Sorapot concept is a bit like the Dyson vacuum cleaner. The key to this product is that the teapot is placed horizontally instead of vertically. This makes the teapot a tool for enjoying the movement of tea leaves, rather than simply a tool for making tea. The tea leaves are not concentrated in a small area, but spread horizontally across the entire pot, allowing you to enjoy the sinking of the tea leaves and the jumping of the tea leaves in a more relaxed manner.
With "Sorapot," the teapot is not vertical.
