Compostable Canvas.

 
Our Compostable Canvas cups are a series of limited edition Hot Cups, collaborating with local and up-and-coming artists. A way of celebrating and showcasing our talented community.

Current: Michael Bullen

March 2025

Our current Compostable Canvas Hot Cups are designed by our very own (and talented) in-house designer Michael Bullen. When asked about what inspired these fun shapes, he responded, "I want the individual holding the cup to interpret the various shapes as silhouettes of whatever they want. Whether it’s drawing faces to create characters, or using the gaps as space to colour in, I hope the designs encourage interaction."
