It's a while since I've posted anything but hey is anybody reading this? We've been pretty busy doing lots of different types of design projects.
Last week I found out that my design for a recycled glass water carafe shortlisted in the "London on Tap" design competition. The idea is "to promote London's drinking water through restaurants, bars and hotels" as bottled water can be around 500 times the price of tap water; which in London is of a very high quality.
The carafe will be prototyped in the next month and the winning design will be made in large quantities from 10,000 - 100,000.
My entry is called TapTop and the form is derived from a stylized tap (faucet) control - this produces four pouring spouts which are drip-free and completely instinctive to use. The carafe is tall and elegant, yet quirky and contemporary like an inverted rocket.
The shortlisted designs are exhibited in the cafe at London's City Hall (Yes the onion shaped building on the South Bank).
Fingers crossed...
