DESIGN NAME: Freedom
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Tap
INSPIRATION: The inspiration comes from the design of the bench. According to the situation, the bench can meet the different number of users to use at the same time. So I apply this concept to the design of the tap for public space. When there are many user, this freedom tap can reduce the queuing time, improve efficiency and user experience. In addition, it can also improve the public space congestion situation.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a tap which has no limit to the water. At present, the taps of public space are fixed at several points, the number of taps determines the number of users. When there are many users, they have to spend a lot of time to queue up, and this will cause public space congestion. This freedom tap is designed to improve the situation. The shape of the tap is long and narrow. There is no limit of fixed point on it. And it can meet more users to use at the same time.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Users can put their hands in the infrared sensing area below the freedom tap, And the water will flow down from the outlet of the corresponding position. Users can stand anywhere to use it, and there is no limit for them.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in December 2016 in Chengdu and finished in February 2017 in Chengdu.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: This freedom tap is made of stainless steel materials. The infrared induction zone is below it, and there is a uniform Water outlet in front of it. The water can flow down from any outlet. It is very convenient for users.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Depth 150mm x Height 150mm
According to the requirements of the environment, the width can be changed.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: At present, the taps of public space are fixed at several points,When there are many users, they have to spend a lot of time to queue up, and this will cause public space congestion. According to the situation,This freedom tap is designed to improve the problem. It can meet the different number of users to use at the same time. In addition, it can reduce the queuing time, improve efficiency and user experience. and improve the public space congestion situation.
CHALLENGE: In the design process, the main problem is how to solve the problem of less taps, but more users. Finally, I get the inspiration from things around us, and designed this freedom tap.
