Mentalidad ANTI TIRAR
Un proyecto de tostadora y tetera contra el consumismo
La "mentalidad antidesecho" promueve la sostenibilidad de los electrodomésticos. Muchos de estos electrodomésticos se desechan prematuramente debido a la producción en masa con diseños y materiales no reparables, por lo que la gente tiene débiles vínculos emocionales con sus productos. Para contrarrestarlo, diseñé tostadoras y teteras con estructuras simplificadas, centradas en la utilidad y la función. Estos productos utilizan cerámica resistente al calor para mayor durabilidad y fácil sustitución de piezas, fomentando relaciones duraderas entre los usuarios y sus electrodomésticos y la sostenibilidad en una sociedad propensa al usar y tirar.

Zixuan Zhou
I am Zixuan Zhou, who currently studies industrial design in the
State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. As a designer, my works are based on observation or philosophical
thoughts of daily life. I aim to create wonderful objects by challenging the
perception on how objects could be with unconventional, functional configuration
and details. Besides, I focus on letting people get touched by objects with
material or usage etc. Because for me, design is not only a method of
solving problems, but also a way to improve daily life by providing inner pleasure
and different ways of seeing things.
