Selected for Scholarships 2009-10, Master of Product Design, School of Design, IED Milano
Bathing infants is a nightmarish task. It is a big problem for the amateur mothers. There has to be a better way for cleaning the baby.
The baby cleaning issue has been waiting for the appropriated design, which would be able to solve all the problems and response to all the subtle requirements. Most of baby bathing products have not provided for the essential issues, such as baby’s neck supporting, water splashing and slippery protection, hard to clean up, hazardous materials and so on.
The idea of flexible material is applied to this safety issue. EVA is soft material, non-slip and distinctive utility. Product life cycle is matched with baby growth (0-18 months). Product assembly are very simple, 12 pieces of die cutting EVA profiles are combined together by 4 extrusion cylinder rubbers.
Instead of using a standard adult bath, which requires you to kneel or lean awkwardly over your baby and gives you less control over his movements, it was designed for an adult. It makes sense to use the kitchen sink or a small plastic baby bath. Moreover, it would be more functional if the design could facilitate all of living contexts, really. Is it possible that baby and mother are bathing together at the same time?
The product was designed to be a tool that helps amateur mothers for bathing their baby more easily. Baby Sec-Stripe’s materials are soft and flexible. It is very safety product for the baby. From the critical reasons, the most important thing for baby product is safety factor.
In terms of product using, Baby Sec-Stripe will be the best answer for safety issue. The baby is protected by this flexible bath during bathing time. It is not necessary to use that much water with the baby. No splashing, no slipping and it is safety.
