Syntax Grey Mugs

Ceramic mugs celebrating the aggressive mechanical beauty of Shin Takamatsu’s lost masterpiece, Syntax. Completed in Kyoto in 1990, this building was a defining icon of japan's futuristic bubble-era postmodern architecture, famous for its cantilevered steel wings and engine-like facade that resembled a robotic machine from a cyberpunk future. Though demolished in 2009, its bold design remains a cult favorite among architects and sci-fi fans alike. This captures the raw power of its industrial silhouette, making them the perfect gift for lovers of brutalist aesthetics, 1980s Japanese design, and futuristic architecture.• Ceramic• 11 oz mug dimensions: 3.8″ (9.6 cm) in height, 3.2″ (8.2 cm) in diameter• 15 oz mug dimensions: 4.7″ (11.9 cm) in height, 3.3″ (8.5 cm) in diameter• 20 oz mug dimensions: 4.3″ (10.9 cm) in height, 3.7″ (9.3 cm) in diameter• Microwave safe.
