—
The name of project is “a cup of coffee”.
Some people has habit that putting coffee grounds to the ashtray, so that it takes the smell.

From that habit, I designed ashtray “a cup of coffee” which out of coffee beans after we made coffee. It could fit for a cigarette with your “a cup of coffee”.

A break
A cup of coffee
