green tap by junggi sung from usa
designer's own words:
GREEN TAP is designed to celebrate the practical function of water saving along with aesthetic value and a symbolic effect. GREEN TAP’s faucet aerator is designed as a heat sensitive material. If you use hot water, the color changes red, allowing the user to acknowledge their consumption. Responsible design thinking recognizes the importance, and long term benefits, of water conservation and appropriate waste management. According to a CALIFORNIA URBAN WATER CONSERVATION COUNCIL report, the faucet aerators affected about 13% reduction in daily per capita tap water use.
GREEN TAP’s faucet aerator of the globe icon and the "+" shape design has a symbolic and practical value. This design can be applied immediately at any existing tap water system without major changes. GREEN TAP’s subtle design changes aim to mitigate our resource management indifferences and will hopefully create an immediate change in behavior of the fundamental forms of water conservation practices will help you act.
LET'S SAVE WATER & STOP GLOBAL WARMING!
