This build-on brick mug is one of those gifts that gets picked up straight away because people need to know what on earth is going on with it. The outside works with building blocks, so it turns an ordinary coffee or tea mug into a little desk toy at the same time. It suits kids, teens, gadget lovers, office workers and anyone who enjoys novelty gifts that are actually fun to interact with. It’s especially good for desks, home offices or kitchen cupboards that could use something less serious. Weird, playful and surprisingly giftable, it’s the kind of mug people remember long after the first cuppa.
