Counter Cleaner
Spring 2020
Design and create a new counter cleaner that is effective, comfortable and beautiful.
Ideation
Initial ideas, considering form and function.
More refined ideas with flaws highlighted that will need to be looked at more with physical models.
Favorite sketch that will be turned into a physical model to be tested.
Prototypes
Physical prototypes helped me get a feel for the handle design and dimensions as well as different wood finishing techniques.
Final Model
The final product is a cast plastic scraper with a sponge attached to the bottom. The handle is ergonomically shaped for the user to hold with either hand and the curved bottom makes the sponge easy to use.
