one tenth: PET bottle humidifier

‘hollow’ generates steam from the water in the bottle

one tenth design has given designboom an exclusive preview of their project ‘hollow’, a PET bottle humidifier.

‘hollow’ uses ordinary plastic bottles in a specially designed base to create a small humidifier. production is resource-efficient, involving only three sets of parts for the base, which draws water from the upturned plastic bottle and releases it as moisture-laden steam.
