PROBLEMS
Since September 26 2006 TSA has banned all liquid over 3.4 ounces to carry-with. After while, bottled water, coffee, juice.. any type of beverage were spotted everywhere inside the airport. Unlike few other airports LAX had is no liquid collecting station prior to TSA.
OTHER ISSUES
-People tend to forget that they are carrying liquids.
-Causes delay at the check point
-Intense labor (trash cans fills with liquid contained bottles.)
-Not enough recycle trash cans
-Makes it harder to recycle
IDEATION
sketches of brainstorming solutions that can deliver exciting functions/movement to increase participation in conserving liquid waste and reuse.
DIATOMITE
Diatomite is a friable light-colored sedimentary rock that is mainly composed of the siliceous skeletal remains of diatoms.These properties make it useful as a filter media, an absorbent, and as a lightweight filler for rubber, paint, and plastics.
it's super absorbent, and quick dry, and darkens color when wet. It's widely used for bath mat.
INSPIRATION
SAVO is inspired by the swivel Lid from a common trash can.
I saw the swivel lid gets stuck in position due to overloading trash inside.
I took that angled position and incorporated it with function.
"What if it stays in that angle?"
IN RESULT
Angled-down side creates slope to take down liquids.
Angled-up side creates an opening to take empty bottles.
