Pet Hydration
Industrial Design
2023
I was briefed by a Brooklyn, NYC based brand to design an innovative new bottle for their brand to serve the luxury pet market.
High on the priority list of the brief was the need for a pleasing user experience and a fun product personality. Existing solutions are typically low value and poorly executed, with low functionality and little aesthetic appeal.
The Lil'Gulp is a fully considered product that has been very well received by the market at the retail price of $35USD. Through a process of iterative development with 7x prototypes, the design overcomes leaking, hygiene and functional issues that cause competitor products to fail and raised $142,000 in 40 days on Kickstarter, before fully launching to market in Autumn 2024.
