visibility saves water by chang-mooc kang from korea
designer's own words:
Not many of us truly understand how much water we actually waste. It’s mainly because we don’t have a chance to visually see the amount of water we use as the water drains too quickly. This washbasin is designed to help us see and understand that we actually use a lot more water than we think.
Water starts to pour out automatically when we place our hands near the sensor under the faucet. When the filled water in the washbasin is all used up, water starts to refill automatically. Water fills up itself even if we don’t use up all the water left in the washbasin. The person using the water is given some time to think about all the water he may have wasted by watching the water being refilled.
