About Glacier Mašina za pranje hrane

Glacier je mašina za pranje hrane namenjena kućnim kuhinjama. Glacier uklanja zaostale pesticide, teške metale, đubriva i bakterije pomoću generatora hidroksilnih vodenih jona. Kućište je izrađeno postupkom injekcionog livenja od ABS i PC materijala, a velika prozirna površina daje uređaju slojevit izgled. Apstraktni poligoni i široke indikatorske lampice podsećaju na prirodni glečer i sugerišu čistoću i stabilnost. Velika kontrolna tabla na prednjoj strani sadrži dugmad za meso, voće i povrće, tako da se hrana postavi unutra, a jednim dodirom pokreće se proces čišćenja.

Unique Properties
Glacier is a kitchen food cleaner that effectively removes pesticide residuals, heavy metal, fertilizer and bacteria. The design purpose of Glacier is to express extraordinary cleanliness and high quality life attitude. The machine utilizes abstract polygons and large scale instruction lights to build a picture of natural glacier that embodies purity and steadiness. Usage of large area of transparent PC material brings rich layering and overall attractiveness to the machine body.
Dimensions & Packaging

Production Technology
Glacier applies ABS and PC injection modeling. It contains hydroxyl water ion generator that degrade harmful substances in food.
Design Challenge
Glacier needs to utilize minimalist shapes to convey a neat metaphor that represent its core function of cleaning, and thus exhibit an attitude for high quality life.
Research
The technology of degrading harmful substance on food has not been widely known or accepted by major population. Instead of educating potential users with academic terms and specification, Glacier relies more upon dedicated overall design to boost its first image and captivation.
Inspiration
From our observation, target users who care about food cleanliness are also prone to life quality pursuance. Thus we build the machine's main body with abstract iceberg polygons to metaphorize the cold, clean and clear glacier that represent extreme purity. Together with the rich layer design, We enable Glacier to touch user's subconsciousness for stainlessness and to visually facilitate user's imagination for quality life.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2020 in Beijing and finished in December 2020 in Shenzhen, China
Operation Flow
A large control panel is installed on front side of Glacier with bottoms indicating "meat", "fruits", "vegetables" and etc. User need only put food into the machine and touch the botton, then operate easily with instructions.
