In response to the fact that "showers account for nearly 17% of all household water usage and last, on average, about 10 minutes," Pereira & O'Dell designed a special shampoo bottle for Proctor & Gamble to raise awareness on shower water consumption.
The 'Showerglass' introduces an attachment for a shampoo bottle that features an hourglass. The implement instructs users to flip the package over as they take a shower, effectively showing how much time they have spent under the water.
Although record rainfalls have been recorded in California early this year, this shampoo bottle design is mean to encourage people to stay vigilant with monitoring their shower water consumption and not revert to "water-wasting ways."
