DESIGN NAME: Lake
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Multifunctional Water Purification
INSPIRATION: The lake is designed with the motif of a lake surrounded by mountains.
The water particles sprayed from the humidifier are expressed as water mist rises on the lake, and the water discharged from the water purifier is expressed as groundwater flowing under the mountain. In addition, you can intuitively check the amount of water stored on the display by displaying the water color differently depending on the depth of the lake.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Lake is a home appliance that combines a water purifier, humidifier, and air purifier. Lake's inspiration comes from the lake surrounded by mountains. The mist of water rising above the lake is represented by a humidifier, and the groundwater flowing under the mountain is represented by a water purifier.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The operation of the rake is as follows: First, pour water required for operation into the display on the top of the main unit. This water is stored in one tank and used for water purification and humidification.
The process of humidification and air cleaning first inhales dry indoor air through the lower inlet of the main unit. Inhaled air passes through an enzyme prefilter to filter out dust and bacteria. The filtered air then passes through a humidifying filter containing moisture and is released through the top of the body. This completes a clean and pleasant indoor humidification and air purge.
The process of integer is as follows. The water stored in the tank first passes through the settling filter. The water passed is passed through the hollow fiber membrane filter and finally passed through the post-carbon filter. This results in clean water purification.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in April 2019 in Seoul and finished in February 2020 in Seoul.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Home Appliances Design

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The increase in single-person households has changed the way of life. One of the changes is a lifestyle that uses a multifunctional product instead of using multiple products that take up unnecessary space. The rake shares water needed for water purification and humidification in one water tank, providing users with innovative space utilization and a new way of life.
CHALLENGE: It was difficult to unleash nature-inspired forms with modern designs. and there are many technical difficulties when it came to the realization.
