The Bottle Humidifer takes the typical household necessity and spruces it up quite a bit. Instead of focusing purely on the function of the air purifying machine, it also hones in on the artistic aesthetic. Shaped like a simple and sculptural vase, the Bottle Humidifer ensures that it complements the existing decor rather than detracting from it.
Designed by Youngduk Song, Sunman Kwon and Sungmin Kim with creative direction by Yeongkyu Yoo, all of whom work for Cloud and Co, the Bottle Humidifer addresses the fact that this is an object that often rests out in the open for long periods of time. The Bottle Humidifier has a matte white plastic top that is anti-bacterial with a thick glass bottom, which allows people to see the water level.
