dishwashing

Week by week, and drop by drop, twelve students from the Art Center College of Design are working towards social change. In partnership with Un Techo Para Mi Pais, the students develop new tools for using, storing, and transporting water to improve the quality of life of impoverished families living in campamentos/slums in Chile. Last week we joined Stephanie and witnessed how she designed a community  laundry facility that aimed to offer convenience and fill the emotional needs of people living in campamentos.   This week, join KC and Jackie and follow step by step how they innovate on the creation of a low-cost kitchen workstation for washing dishes indoors and facilitating the re-use of water.

Convenience and Awareness

“I don’t like to do the dishes in front of the house because I don’t want people to see me.” –Maria.
