Scaled Sanitation

Cleaning appliances are subject to contemporary design concerns

Implications - As people continue to downsize their living spaces within urban environments, they seek out smaller, more compact cleaning appliances. The emphasis on easy maneuverability and storage is more than just a space-saving solution; it indicates a larger desire for devices that are unobtrusive in their design. This modern consumer is more conscious than ever of aesthetics, and even utilitarian appliances are under pressure to be sleek and harmonious within their larger environment.
Workshop Question - If you were to redesign your (main) offering, how could you alter it to appeal to the modern, aesthetic-driven consumer?
Trend Themes
1. Compact Cleaning Appliances - As people continue to downsize their living spaces within urban environments, they seek out smaller, more compact cleaning appliances.
2. Wireless Functionality - As consumers expect wireless functionality in all aspects of consumer products, it's likely we'll continue to see more powerful appliances go wireless.
3. Adaptable Vacuums - The Shark NV356E Navigator Lift-Away Pro is a smart home vacuum that's designed to easily adapt to the needs of modern consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Home Appliance Manufacturing - Manufacturers can capitalize on the trend of compact appliances and make cleaning appliances smaller and more easy to store in small homes, apartments or condos.
2. Technology Industry - As consumers expect wireless functionality in all aspects of consumer products, companies in the technology industry can explore how they can extend this trend to the manufacturing of home appliances.
3. Robotic Appliance Manufacturing - In response to the need for adaptable vacuums, manufacturers in the robotic appliance industry can explore creating automated devices that have the ability to transform into handheld units for easy cleaning of inaccessible areas.
