Arewa
Water treatment in the bathroom
Awera's water treatment system treats shower water and stores it until it is used to flush the toilet. Our product family includes 5 different ways to integrate the filter box into the bathroom. As a result, the entire waste water from flushing the toilet can be saved, since flushing the toilet is the second largest producer of waste water in households in Germany. In Germany that is over 30 liters per person per day.
Company/Institution
Hochschule für Gestaltung Schwäbisch Gmünd
The Gmünd model:
Passionate, Rational and Responsible
For the HfG Schwäbisch Gmünd, design is an innovative discipline with scientific, social and technical references. It contributes to influencing cultural, technical and economic developments in a responsible and sustainable way. The university deliberately dispenses with artistic or handicraft prerequisites in the teaching of design basics. In contrast, all five study programmes focus on scientific findings and the rational justifiability of design decisions.
