Car wash system
Design: Isao Hosoe with Philippe Casens, Luca Paci
Production: Ceccato, Montecchio Maggiore (Vi), Italy 2002
The redesign operation of a car wash system is concentrated basically on lightness. Lightness is expressed by the reduction of the existing product materials and by the energetic-behavioural optimisation.
The object perception becomes lighter. The lightness is related to low costs of production and less mechanical and especially human energy for construction, including transportation, assembly and maintenance of the system.
It’s important that the aesthetic dimensions conjugate lightness and industrial strength for a product that is exposed to heavy, continued use and climatic stresses.
