Tilt 20 Dispenser Reduces Wastage and Increases Convenience


Tilt 20 dispenser concept redesigns our conventional dispenser shape in order to reduce wastage and increase convenience. During a party, a big dispenser is often use to serve drinks such as punch, juice, soda, or ice tea, however as the beverage runs low, we usually tilt the dispenser forward to get the last drops. It’s an inconvenience way to pour your drink, isn’t it?
Tilt 20 dispenser concept was born out of the inconvenience above. The base of this container incorporates a chamfer to allow it stands at an angle or vertically. When the dispenser is full, its center of gravity allows it to stand vertically, while the volume of liquid becomes less and less, it can be tilted 20-degrees (now you know where the name came from) to rest on the chamfered section of its base. In this way, all remaining liquid will be pooled around the tap outlet, making it easy for anyone to dispense until the last drop of the beverage inside.

Portraits of Rural Chinese Families with Everything They Own

The result offer glimpses into the utilitarian lives of millions of ordinary Chinese that appear not to have been swept up by the same modernisation that has seen hundreds of millions of others leave for the cities.
