Artisan Appliance

Consumers swap plastic for glass in portable appliances

Implications - Portable appliances used to prepare and serve beverages are eschewing plastic materials in favor of glass and stainless steel. Ultimately, the rise of the artisan movement has influenced a desire among consumers not only for higher-quality goods, but also higher-quality presentation of goods, even while on-the-go. This design progression speaks to the evolution of the consumer as a connoisseur.
Workshop Question - In what ways could you adapt the aesthetics of your products to convey a greater sense of quality?
Trend Themes
1. Preference for Glass and Stainless Steel Materials in Portable Appliances - The artisanal movement has influenced a shift towards higher-quality presentation in portable appliance products, encouraging the use of glass and stainless steel materials instead of plastic.
2. Innovation in Cold Coffee Brewing Equipment - Increasing demand for low-cost alternatives to purchasing cold coffee beverages has led to the creation of portable coffee brewers.
3. Stylized Reinterpretations of Ancient Technologies - The fusion of sustainable water intake and cutting-edge design has resulted in modern water purifier systems based on ancient technologies.
Industry Implications
1. Kitchen Appliance Manufacturing - Manufacturers can innovate by incorporating glass and stainless steel materials in portable appliances used to prepare and serve beverages.
2. Coffee and Tea Retail - Businesses can offer low-cost alternatives to purchasing cold coffee beverages by providing portable cold coffee brewers.
3. Product Design - Designers can create stylized reinterpretations of ancient technologies such as water purifiers and carafes to create unique and upscale products that fuse tradition with modern design.
