 BECK' S PRIZE design a key and what it opens --- title: bottle opener that is incorporated into the bottom of the bottle # : 1515 duncan edwards from new zealand    designer's own words: While reading the brief I realised the connection between the sponsor and the title of the brief, “Design a key an what it opens” From this I began further exploration and got me thinking about Beck’s Beer and the idea of designing a key and the object it opens. My scenario is that Beck’s Beer or any other prestige’s Beer have non-twist top caps, that you need a bottle opener to open them. The problem is that when you purchase these Beers and go to a party or function and don’t have access to a bottle opener, because the host’s bottle opener has gone missing or even worse they don’t have one, which is not uncommon. These non-twist tops are annoying to open and you end up using your keys, the side of the table or any other object that you think might work. So my idea is to design a key like feature to open beer bottles, but needs to be incorporated into the bottle. My concept is a bottle opener that is incorporated into the bottom of the bottle, in which an extruded lip sticks out, so you can place the cap underneath the lip and push downwards opening the bottle. --- back - back to the index page - ---  ------- monthly designboom newsletter ------- ------- ? comments and contact us ? -------
