The kissable coffee cups are a unique way of getting your caffeine fix

Designer Jan WooSeok has proved that he is very creative after coming up with 'Kiss when coffee' a design concept made to be fun but functional, offering the drinker a pair of lips and nose to engage with as they use the vessel.

WooSeok shared the designs on Behance and says he came up with it because he loves both coffee and kisses.

"[It's] different from the other coffee lids which have a usual hole to put a straw or to drink directly, 'Kiss' looks like a human face.

"Therefore, a coffee drinker experiences a visually funny and emotionally different coffee-drinking when drinking.

The innovative thinker from Suncheon in South Korea says that the a disposable cup and lid for a cafe franchise will first be produced this week.

He explained: "There is only a mouth on the lid to start with [for the] prototype. However I felt like there was something missing in our early design concept.

"I realised that touching the noses is essential point in order to feel realistic while being kissed. So I add the nose and face muscle to the lid.

"Finally, it has the lineaments of that of a Greek statue as well as a friendly face. I am sure that it is an important point to get public attention."
