Strategy assistance required to create a polygon cup

Hi forum,

 

Today I was surfing around the internet for 3D printing ideas and I found these beautiful cup posted below.

I want to recreate this cup in Fusion 360 but I'm having trouble thinking of a strategy to design this. I'm not sure if I should use the pattern tool, or the loft tool. Should I create a top body and a bottom body? Please, lighten me up.

 

Thanks,

Yeray Pabon

Well I tried. My approach was to make 2 offset planes on top of a bottom sketch. All planes will have a specific polygon shape. Loft all three planes and voila. I still don't know how to to the extra faces the images has on the surface of the cup.
