Ceramic mugs celebrating the rhythmic, sculptural brilliance of Marina City in Chicago. Designed by Bertrand Goldberg in 1968, these twin towers are widely considered a masterpiece of Organic Brutalism that redefined the city's skyline. Famous for the technical and artistic genius of their raw reinforced concrete construction and distinctive "corn cob" shape, they rejected the glass-box trend of the era in favor of bold, structural expression that has since become a pop culture icon, gracing the cover of Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. This design captures the texture, geometry, and enduring legacy of the Windy City's most beloved concrete giants.
