Rationale
This multi-purpose holder has been targeted at those hoping to reduce clutter in their spaces. It can be flattened with ease and takes shape with an automatic pop-up, eliminating the need for tedious assembly.
It functions on an easy-to-squeeze method of collapsing, with an internal rubber-band mechanism. Squeezing the holder releases its contents, while letting your grip go causes it to spring up and inflate, allowing it to house its contents.

good concept , but your model is rather poorly crafted.

ReplyDeletethe idea is good, but i think the hole is too much, so when u squeeze it might goes everywhere.
the hook is too big i reckon.. definitely can make it smaller..
and the joints doesn't seems right for this material, maybe different type of material suits it better?

ReplyDeleteThis is such an innovative design! I haven't seen a container like this before and you have definitely covered the element of surprise.
ReplyDeleteI think you need to develop a better way of placing the items in the container, perhaps a hatch on one of the faces?
I particularly loved the idea of having a one piece through product that assembles itself, but I have concerns regarding the aesthetics of this product mainly because of its garage crafted look and the materials were not explored enough, especially the colour scheme. Maybe changing the shape would also bring the level of pleasureability and surprise higher to the recipient.
