When thinking of the form of the office water dispenser, it became evident that shape was a key factor. The fully round spheres felt somewhat unbalanced, and thus projected a naive design, whereas the square designs did not project the friendly nature of thirsty planet.
As a result of this it was decided that a compromise between the two should be made. As a result of this design idea 6 was selected. This design feels balanced, and promotes a 'classic' approach to a water dispenser.
The tripod aspect of the approach exhibits maturity, as well as relating to the three countries in which are supported by pump aid.
The height of the product was outlined in order to gain a greater stance upon scale. The measurements were decided upon in relation to the height of a general kitchen counter to a upper cupboard. This is to ensure that the product can be easily stored, and could be used within a staff room.
The tripod approach allows the design to stand out from its competitors.
The way in which the dispenser would work was highlighted, in order to ensure that the dispenser would fully work. As this is a manual dispenser no electronics would need to be inputted and thus the design is environmentally friendly.
